You'd think we were a bike company or something eh?


We obviously are not a computer design or marketing company! damn Internets. somehow this became a weird green and yellow through the magic of computers!
it is supposed to be brown, not green like and the yellow is supposed to be baby blue and the baby blue is supposed to be gold.
ugh.
anyway, what you are looking at is the 2010 Wakazashi SS (Slope Style) it is the perfect weapon for destroying the bone yard, racing 4X or slalom or just looking for a glorious day!
Designed purposely to run a SRAM Hammerschmidt and no rear derailleur so you can have the 2 working gears you need, and no rear mech to get hung up on stunts. Or you can run a rear mech and a single ring set up with the ICGS-05 mounts (E-13 preferred) and go huck yourself off some stuff or race it, mini DH it with a Fox 36 Talas at 160.
15" frame. short or long reach frames. projected retail of under $1800 frame/rear shock/rear axle (2), rear dropout system (2), custom Twenty6 seat collar, decal kit and a hat or t-shirt (whatever we decide we want to throw in the box).

Recall Notice: 2008 Marzocchi 888 RC3 & RC3WC


Marzocchi has issued a voluntary recall of specific 2008 888 RC3 and RC3WC. Read on for more details.

Marzocchi has learned that after a forceful landing, the suspension system can become completely compressed and “bottom out.” The piston rod may collapse under the load of the landing. The collapsed piston rod prevents the suspension system from extending and returning to its original configuration. The fork spring will remain compressed inside the fork leg.



WARNING: If an unqualified mechanic attempts to repair the suspension system, the fork may extend violently, ejecting the top cap or spring with significant force, resulting in personal injury. In addition, if a piston rod breaks after a jump, it is possible, but not likely, that a rider can fall from the bicycle and strike the ground, thereby sustaining personal injury.

The suspension systems affected by this program were manufactured between July 10, 2007 and September 15, 2007 and can be identified with the date of production on the crown.

The date is written in the format: T07D0710

T07 = Year 2007
D07 = Month (July)
10 = Tenth day of the month




WHAT YOU SHOULD DO:
Immediately stop the use of the suspension systems manufactured during the relevant time period and return them to an authorized Marzocchi retailer for repair.
If the pumping rod of your suspension system has already failed, DO NOT TRY TO REPAIR THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM YOURSELF. Return them to an authorized Marzocchi retailer for repair. There will be no charge to you for repairing your suspension system.
If you have any questions, please contact Marzocchi at:

getting the paint ready

Getting the decal placement just right because it is the cool under the clear coat stuff for these guys so we want to get them just right. Gloss white looks good. The front of the bikes will be the same blue as the one ghost decals on the DT and will be the entire front of the bike up to the gold chevron stripe. bike's gonna look nice. should have them all done by the end of the week.

rollin large in 2009

What do you all think of the design for the 2009 One Ghost Industries race trailer? 20' goodness, fully stocked and enclosed V.I.P. pits for the factory team rolling on the Mountain States Cup series. Can't miss us, roll by for a Steaz or a brew (if over 21). We will provide neutral tech support for a nominal fee or a dank six pack. We will have SOME parts for sale to the general public because racing is business too and we are all out there to have fun. We will have some OG clothing for sale and maybe even a demo bike or 2 to check out.
We've come a long way baby, but we have miles to go before we sleep. Hell, we are not even warmed up yet!
