Basketball stars’ custom cruisers

23 10 2019

The NBA Basketball season kicked off this week and Shad Johnson (of Goods BMX and Snakebite BMX fame) commemorated the occasion by posting a couple of one-off cruiser projects he did for Kevin Durant and Lebron James.

According to Shad,

KD’s was [done] during his time on the Thunder and Lebron’s was while he was still with the Cavs. 

For the eagle-eyed, you can see Kevin’s is sporting some cool low-key graphics too.

Lebron’s cruiser (pretty sure it’s one of those old Macneil Bikes 26ers) was photographed pre-decal installation.

Pretty cool.

Now I’m kinda curious if there are other stealth shredders lurking in the NBA. (Wonder if Shad has any intell…hint, hint Shad)

Bully for you…Snakebite Meth Bars

9 02 2018

If you’re old school fool (like me) you probably remember the old Bully handlebars (and the Redline Forklifter Bars that inspired them) fondly.

I had a pair of the Forklifter bars back in the day…and like a fool (I’ve a got a theme going here) I sold them for a song sometime in the 90s.

A bad move on my part.

Thankfully, the dudes at Snakebite have stepped in to save guys like me for our previous bad decisions.

That’s because Snakebite has come out with the “Meth bar“…a 4-piece bar with the classic Bully/Forklifter styling but updated with modern geometry (featuring the same upsweep and backsweep as the equally iconic S&M Slam bars).

Here’s the lowdown on the specs:

Height: 8.9 or 9.2″
Width: 29″
Upsweep:1 degree
Backsweep: 12

Made in the USA.

Available in black or chrome.

So much radness.

And now, the obligatory action shot:

So good.

Interested? Snap ’em up at Goods.
