Product highlight: Redline LightFlight Tube

Lightweight tubes? Definitely. Someone once worded me up on the physics of momentum that in theory the further away from the centre, the lighter something should be.

And does it work? Hell yeah! Running a lighter tire & a lighter tube is a great way to keep rolling for longer.

We’ve been using these Redline tubes for a while now with no problems. They have a thinner wall without compromising strength & come with strong valves that don’t have the risk of popping out.

Check them out in the store here & try a set out!

Product highlight: Aaron Ross signature grips

Odyssey really took the grip in a new artistic direction when they put this bad boy together.

Super soft rubber compound & the grip representing a keyboard… perfect. Just think of all those little keys as cushions for your hands!
