My new 2012 Octane One Void frame

This is the new O-1 Void frame. There is a few things that have changed with the frame. The first one is the rear end, its smaller and the rear disc mount is much more adjustable. The second is it has a shorter chain stay and much better wheels clearance. Next is the graphics look much cooler.

But the main thing about it, is that it rides amazing.

Season has come to an end.

November 8, 2011

Sorry I’ve not been keeping up to date with my blog. I going to try harder this time to keep you guys and gals on top with what I’m doing.

Yet again another season has passed and winter has come. This year has been a busy one for me. Been riding on the Animal Bike Tour loads this year and when I do have a free weekend I off doing a comp somewhere in Europe. But I can’t complain, I’ve loved every bit of it.

Plans for this winter, I’m going to be working on another edit, which should be better then the one I’ve just done and I’m going to be working with Simon (my fav Polish friend) on getting some sweet new shots out there. I’m also going away again to California sometime at the beginning of next year with a few of my buddies. So look out for a few sweet edits from there.

New edit out, check it out.
