Mirraco customers from Germany

Oliver Henrion had a question on the rear hub of a Blend 16 bike and sent in a few photos of his son Finn riding at the local park. From the looks of it 6 years old Finn is getting rad on his Mirraco bike.

But Finn has some competition coming, his three year old brother Stian just got a Mirraco Apprentice 12 last Saturday. Just give him a couple of years....

Thanks for the support guys! Ride on.

Interbike 2009

Although there was no specific Mirraco booth at the 2009 Interbike show in Las Vegas you still had a chance to see a 2010 Blend model (at the SST booth) and run into the Mirraco staff. Maybe you also got a chance to talk to Nigel Sylvester and Dave Mirra who were in town as well. Anyway, Interbike 2009 is now over. Be on the lookout for a new website that will show the complete 2010 range soon.

In the meantime you can visit a Mirraco dealer and grab a 2010 catalog/poster to see what will be coming very soon. With a bit of luck they will have some new models on the shop floor already.

Dave held on during that run and scored 6th place points which puts him in second place in the standings going into the final Dew Tour stop in Florida.

The Gargoyle is our $349 price point bike that features a 5-tube CRMO frame with a sealed MID BB and 3pc CRMO cranks. This bike has plastic pedals, 8” tall bars and comes with a 28x10t gear ratio which makes it an awesome bike for any rider looking to hit up the trails for a long day or just to ride the local park!

One of our higher end bikes, the Mainline is Harry Main’s design! This bike retails at $489 and has all the specs to back it up, not to mention the sick colors it comes in. This bike has a full CRMO frame, fork and bars. The frame features a 20.4” TT and has compact 13.25” rear end. This enables the rider to spin, flip and manual easier and also offers the younger rider a high end complete bike that will fit them great!
