Single speed for me.

Alright, I'm broke and I needed a new bike. I have spent soo much time caught up in the hype of new bikes and bling components, that I forgot how much fun it is to just pedal around and enjoy myself. In an attempt to regain some of that feeling, I bought a Redline mono cog (available at both locations). Cheap, quiet and utterly reliable, the monocog is proving to me that riding is way too much fun.

Hello loyal Cactus Bike customers and comrades. I would like to take a moment and discuss our current economic state...Most obviously the current rise in gas prices.

Hey there Arizona... I just wanted to share some pictures of my Haro X-7. This has been one hell of a bike. A climber,descender,jumper and all around killer. Single pivot suspension is absolutely indestructable, it climbs like a goat,and descends like a fallen angel breaking Mach three on a elevator ride to hell!

freeriding in the desert.

Freeride means a lot of things, to a lot of different people. Ask any five people and you will normally get five different answers. During the past few years I have participated in many different types of cycling. Among my favorites you will find niches with names like; Park, BMX, dirt jumping,street riding,trials,downhill,all mountain, and freeriding. Usually freeriding is taken to mean jumping mounain bikes off of huge obstacles and bombing scary downhills, but I feel that freeriding;to me, is a culmination of all the different types of riding that I do.

summertime, living easy?

Ohh yes,
Summer time is almost here, and I for one, am stoked! Lots of people complain about the heat but if you live here, and ride here, then know this place is too awesome to neglect thru the summer.
Just immagine it... the second largest city park in the world, totally empty. It belongs to you! Every skatepark, completely devoid of kids on scooters,smoking soccer moms, and park rangers.And our beutifull Chandler bike park will be packed with only people who love to ride as much as you.
So while all the poseurs cower in their air conditioning, I will see all you OG's out there.
