Eric Lichtenberger had a bike check of his Third Wave prototype a few days ago, but we didn’t get to show you close ups of the Wave on the toptube.  The photos aren’t the best, but you will notice a bunch of scratches and dings, but no major dents.  The idea behind the Wave toptube is the same as the one for the downtube.  Each small Wave is stronger and stiffer than a non-waved tube, it’s easier to dent a larger tube then a smaller one.  We’ve been doing the Wave downtube since 2007 and it’s been proven countless times.  If you dent either one then you significantly decrease the strength of the front end.  The Wave toptube will only be offered on next spring’s Third Wave frame.  Look for more photos of the Wave downtube including the cable channel on the underside next week!

Here is Gary Young‘s built up Third Wave prototype!  We just announced he that he got on Sunday yesterday, but he’s been riding this bike since just after Interbike.  His quote was “This feels so good!  The geometry makes simple stuff like manuals and bunnyhops so much easier”  Hopefully we’ll have a web video of Gary in action on the bike.  Check below for his parts list!

We’re at interbike this week showing off all of our new products and one of the big news that we’re pleased to announce are complete bikes! Right now, we have complete Model C’s and Funday’s in our booth and they’ve been turning lots of heads. More info soon as the week unfolds!

The Sunday 24″ Model C was introduced at last September’s Interbike to a mix of fanfare and uncertainty.  The biggest controversy was its geometry with its much higher bottom bracket and shorter rear as compared to other 24″ cruisers available.  It took a lot to explain the ideas behind it as you might have seen in the Model C video edit in March and there’s even an FAQ about the Model C.  The goal was to make a 24″ BMX bike that could do all the tricks a 20″ could do.  Before the Model C, cruisers were race orientated and the thought of doing tricks on it didn’t really exist.  Others in the industry claimed that since they were “a former top cruiser racer” that the Model C wouldn’t work.  They basically said we didn’t know what we were doing.  Sorry to say, but we’ve been approved by riders through out the world and from companies like We the People and Fit who’ve adapted the Model C’s geometry for their cruiser completes.  It has been a great year since the last Interbike and I know it will be another great year with the introduction of our complete Sunday Model C next spring.  So, not only can you get a high end frame and fork that is required by a skilled rider, but you will also be able to get started on a 24″ without spending too much money.  Check below for some photos of the Model C since last Interbike.

A little while back, I received some random photos of Jim Bauer from Odyssey riding his Model C in a ditch that could be straight out of Wheels of Fire.  Most of you probably don’t know what that is, but if you had any connection to skating in the 80’s which most people did then you would know.  It happens to be my favorite skate video of all time.  Have you followed Odyssey on Twitter to see what they’re up too?

Here are two bright Sunday ‘Funday’ Friends!  Keith Jones is the Ocean Blue Funday and Will Fisher is the Fluorescent yellow.  Will works at Core BMX in Toronto which hosted the Toronto Up, Up and Away premiere back in May.  Unfotunately, Will hasn’t even gotten to ride his bike yet due to a broken ankle.  Get well soon!  Nice job guys!

Vinyl BMX’s, Tom Arkus came to town the other day and tore up the barrier spot from Sunday night’s post!  He took the Model D off the trails and tabled high above the barrier.  No flat landings here, he just dove right back into the barrier.  Did a good tire slide too!  Check out the gallery below!  Photos by Jim C and Tom did the touch ups!

Tim Sage sent me these photos of his super good looking 21.75 olive green Sunday Model C built up with Black Magic Morning 24.1 forks and 24umph bars!  He took it to his trails and said “I took it out yesterday and I am amazed by the way the bike rides compared to my old cruiser.”  Seeing is believing!  I’ve often put the bike in a person’s hands so they can test it out because I can guarantee that they haven’t ridden anything like the Model C before.

Check out some good looking Sunday Plus 4 Model C’s built up.  The silver one is Brody Rutledge‘s from Ontario and the self painted black one is Bill Sympson‘s.  I’m really excited on these builds.  Look for more Model C stuff later this week.
