The good news is the new products will soon start to roll off the production
line. Don't worry
kids... the new stuff includes in Rick's words "a new STA and an ultra light
freestyle frame and fork for
John Rodgers. The new stuff we are working on will blow away anything we have
done previously".

Our friends at Superstar are working on a slick new hub set. Here are the details from them:
- most of the parts are designed by Superstar. - female cr-mo axles, heat treated. - driver rotates on a synthetic bushing (not on bearings). This bushing is thinner and gives a better force distribution (less torque). - lighter than most of existing female hubs (including those with aluminium axles). - you can see the CNC star in the body. - these hubs are prototypes. We already noticed a few things to modify. - we can't be sure of when they'll be available. We want to test them correctly first.
Team news time:
Zeal welcomes Simon Gibb to the team......
The cat is out the bag and we are
stoked to have Simon on the team....

"Simon will now be throwin it down on a custom built
Standard and reppin a
whole lot more
Zeal product as well as continuing to ride for
BSD (laser tat removal
is not cheap and their
product is too good) Nike 6.0 and 20Twenty where he will always be welcome".
