Photo Friday – Wheelin’ and Dealin’

We got in quite a few wheels last week, somewhere around the 600 mark. Here’s a look at the space we filled up, we’re hoping we can find some more room for the container of Amelia’s we’ll be getting in a few more weeks. Wish us luck.

EighthInch Scrambler V3 Pre-Order

Today is the day to reserve your V3 Scrambler. We’re taking pre-orders today and expecting then to ship out of here on or before August 20th. Arrival dates may vary by a few days but not by much. We’ll be selling them in black, white, and our new raw finish so many of you have been waiting for. Click on the banner to see them in our store.

The Scrambler geometry remains the same but we’ve made a few tweaks to it. The old stamped dropouts have been replaced by a beefed up laser cut dropout. We’ve also added a second gusset on the toptube for better strength. Low profile cable mounts under the toptube are also added for those of you looking to run a rear brake for polo. Like the V2 this will come with frame, fork, seatpost, seatclamp, and headset.

Order yours today!

Congratulations Steve L from Oak Park, IL! You were so fast you got your pre-order placed before we even announced it was available. Ninja!

Photo Friday – NAHBPC’s

Here’s a few photo’s from the NAHBPC’s this last weekend. We had a great time out there and met a lot of great people. For a tournament featuring 60 teams and 6 courts it couldn’t have gone any smoother. Big thanks to Ben and everyone else who was involved in organizing it!

The EighthInch booth in all its glory

The bike rack filled up fast…

…and most of the other bikes found a home on the ground

Trek provided the shade for the weekend

The nicest Huffy at NAHBPC, although we are a little bias.

As the games intensified the crowds grew

Ben and everyone else working behind the scenes did a great job

The next generation in bike polo was already out there practicing

V2 Julian’s Are Here

Our new V2 Julian’s just came in. This is a heavy duty 42mm rim made to hold up under the toughest riding conditions. The main difference between the V2 Julian and the original Julian is an upgraded triple wall design that adds even more strength.

Right now we have machined and non-machined 32h versions in matte black, high polished silver, and white. You can pick them up as complete sets laced to formula hubs or just buy the rims if you want to lace them yourself. But I think the part everyone will enjoy is our new lower price of $174.50 shipped! Click on the pictures to check them out in our store.

Tessa Re-Stock – All Colors Are In!!

For all of you waiting for our Tessa’s to come back in stock, the day has finally come. We’re re-stocked with a full color run of Tessa wheelsets in both machined and non-machined sets. A 30mm deep double wall rim keeps these strong and light while the sealed bearing formula hubs keep them spinning smooth. For only $139.50 these are well worth it. Click on the pictures to see them in our store.

We had some new V2 Julian’s come through on the shipment too. Stay tuned for some more info on that later today!
