Visitando las tiendas del área metro nos tropezamos con inventario de fixies en la isla. David el propietario nos comento, “estamos respondiendo a la furia de fixies que hay ahora”. Actualmente cuenta con dos modelos Raleigh disponibles que van desde los $595 Back Alley hasta los $875 Rush Hour FB. Lo que David no sabe es que la furia vino para quedarse….a quemar gomas…..

Alfred nos presenta su arma secreta, a Sebastian Pau BOBE de 8 años, amante del ciclismo urbano. Aquí posando con su fixie favorita de la colección de su padre junto con el premio del ultimo Monstertrack XI ganado por su ídolo, el messenger bag conmemorativo que solo lo tiene el ganador del alleycat. No hay duda que el niño tiene tremendo “flow”, el que lo hereda no lo hurta y va rodar junto a prfixed en el velodromo el domingo. Fotos: Alfred Bobe Jr.

History of Oakley from Defgrip on Vimeo.

This past year, I got the chance to go down to the Oakley headquarters in California to check out the re-issue of the infamous B-1B grip that Oakley was working on. While I was down there, I took the opportunity to put together a video giving a little history and background to the brand. Oakley is a company that does a billion dollars a year in sales, has stores all over the world, and has created some of the most iconic eyewear of my generation… and I’m pretty sure not many people know that Oakley started out by making BMX grips.

I had the opportunity to sit down with Mike Bell, a former AMA Supercross champion and employee of Oakley who started in 1985, to tell the story of how Oakley went from a small grip company to one of the biggest eyewear brands in the world.
