Bad Ass Downtube Stickers
It’s been on my mind for ages to get some really big downtube stickers sorted out, but I guess it was a little project that always got put on the bottom of the list. It kinda got to a point where I figured I gotta do them, or they’ll never get done.
They measure in at 300mm x 50mm and are screened on the highest grade polyester vinyl I could get my hands on. And yeah, they only come in the one colourway – black sticker, white writing.
And as the photo suggests, they’re not just for downtubes. They can go on your toptube. Or maybe your handlebars if you have perfect 10′s. Probably not.
If you want one, get onto our online store and purchase away. $17 each including postage. Word.
2020 V40 Ad
Pumped on this ad (featuring Mikey McMah & Brock Olive):
I shot this photo when we were on our roadtrip earlier in the year, heading back to the hostel in Canberra. Actually I think this photo is literally out the front of the hostel. I’d just been snapping photos as we were rolling through the city, and I guess I got lucky with this one. Pumped on this ad!
If you haven’t yet got yourself a copy, do it. Loads of dope content in there. Hit it up.
Brock Olive / Ballin’ Snapback + Hoody Promo
Last Saturday (or maybe it was last Sunday, not 100%), Brock and the crispiest dude I know clipped up for this little edit.
Brock is an animal. And thanks to Vocko for the clips, much love!
Stockist Feature
We recently added a few stockists and we haven’t said too much about it on here (although if you like us on Facebook you’d already know), one of them was Royal BMX in Perth.
Ben is doing a rad job holding it down for crew over there, and Calvin K gave him a bit of a run for his new feature jib called On The Down Low. From what I understand, OTDL is a little project to give the Western Australian scene a bit more coverage. We even got a bit of a mention towards the end.
On a related note, Calvin does some really nice work with the old camera, check out his vimeo channel thing here and watch some of his edits and sections from his DVD ‘Let it Bleed’.

Sydney to Adelaide Roadtrip Edit
This edit has been waiting to see the light of day for a few months now, the deal was that I didn’t want to release it before the roadtrip article ran in 2020… what would be the point in running an article in a mag if you release an edit months before, yaddamean?
Anyway, bit of background if you’re interested. In March, we went on a whirlwind 5 day roadtrip from Sydney to Adelaide. The crew that came along were Tom Blanch, Chris Barnes, Will Gunn, Sam Illman, Mikey McMah, Mozzy, Brock Olive, Jadan Roxburgh, Jake Shepherd, Tenna and Brad Wright… we’re rolling pretty deep these days, so it was rad to get almost all the homies on a bus! Jason Cousins from Roadtripz was steering the wheel, Dre Regli was clocking clips and I was shooting some photos.
No more words, here it is:
Best trip ever! Super stoked for the 2012 trip already.
Oh and go out and pick up a copy of 2020, there’s a little story of the trip along with a bunch of photos I shot.
2020 out now!
The new 2020 is out and it features a bunch of rad content… there’s an article on the Roadtrip we went on earlier this year is in there, a few photos of Will Gunn floating around and our boy Jake Shepherd got a photo in the back of the mag.
And there’s also a double page ad from us in there featuring Mikey and Brock. Stoked on it.
Last but not least I also shot an interview with Little Black Bike’s golden child, Liam Zingbergs. Liam kills it.
Here’s the preview:
Now go to your local bikeshop or newsagent and buy it.
PS. You know what this means. Our roadtrip edit is coming soon! Next day or two… stay tuned.
Brocky
Despite not having a moustache (nor any discernable facial hair), Vocko seems to have taken a liking to our boy Brock and is spending some quality time with him. First is was the stair set destroyer edit (re-up):
And now its a cheeky pegs to man-sized over:
What is going on hereeeeee…
You should visit Crispy Stream on the daily, streets be saying they is making serious money.
P.S. Brock has been working on the promo edit for the Dishonour X Quintin Snapbacks + hoodies with Vocko, stay tuuuuned.
Caleb & Illman
My boy Doug has been doing a bit of travelling over the last six months or so, and right now he’s hangin’ out in Melbourne. Mannnn I’m jealous. But yeah, while he’s been there he’s been clocking clips and shooting photos.
Here’s a few he shot with Illman and Caleb:
Seeing as though I’ve been obsessed with the moustachieness of our crew the last few days, I’ll point out that Caleb and Illman are completely incapable of growing a moustache (Illman does manage some whispy shit on his chin). So if you can’t grow a moustache, there’s a glimmer of hope.
PS. Much love Doug!
