Hoffman 2011 Sneak Peak

It's no secret, we're massive fans of Hoffman here - Mat rules and the products are awesome.

To set the record straight; Hoffman Bikes is entirely rider owned and run - no big corporate parent company pulling the strings - just Mat with Mark Owen and his team.

Without Mat, I don't think BMX would be the same today - the tricks, the products and the lifestyle have been heavily influenced by Hoffman. I doubt there is a rider out there that hasn't taken a little piece of this influence whether they know it or not.

Anyhow, buying Hoffman stuff is supporting one of the greatest riders and greatest BMX brands in the world. So in the words of Nike - just do it.

Here's a sneaky peak of some new 2011 stuff coming soon!

ROM JAM 2010

That time again
tell all your friends
lets make it happen.....

Jon Taylor - Parklife

It's about time Jon got some real recognition as one of the greats of BMX, not just for his riding (which is still on it!), but also his promotion of the sport.

Manager of the Vans team, Hoffman UK team and loads of other commitments - I still don't know how he has time for his job at Seventies.

He's also one of the nicest blokes in BMX - always has time for chat and has been a massive help with his support of RADBMX Shop.

Top man.

WEDS 13 JAN 10 - SEVERE WEATHER - SHOP CLOSE

So, so sorry, but we can't get in to open the shop today. Loads of snow has fallen and is still coming down, so we've taken the decision to shut as driving conditions are lethal.

I had to take my wife into the local school she teaches at today and cars were spinning all over the place with lots of roads blocked already by cars not being able to go anywhere...so my advice would be to stay in, keep warm and wait for another day.

The good news is that we've had loads of new items in the store, the latest stuff from Fly and Odyssey - together with some top ups of Proper gear...we're bursting with NEW goodies!

Come and have a look as soon as we re-open, it'll be worth it!!

Many thanks for your support, keep it RAD

Cheers
Dave

SAT 9 DEC - WE ARE OPEN!

Managed to dig the car out of the snow yesterday, and the expected snow didn't fall last night, so we're good to go! THE SHOP IS OPEN AGAIN!

I can't wait to get back now and apparently couriers will be running again on Monday, so things (hopefully) will get back to normal.

We are expecting a BIG Odyssey, Fly & Proper delivery on Monday, so those who are waiting for the latest JC plastic pedals, Fly 2010 range and Twisted Root Beer/Ocean Blue/Sea Green pedals - the wait is over!

Thanks for your support.

Keep it RAD.

Dave

SHOP CLOSED - SEVERE WEATHER - TUE 6 JAN

Woke up this morning to over 10" of snow, so the shop is most definately closed today as it's just not worth the risk of trying to get in for either the staff or our customers.

Enjoy the snow today, don't try and travel anywhere unless you really have too. Stay safe.

Keep checking back for updates both here and on our homepage...oh, and on Twitter too (radbmxshop).

Thanks all.

Keep it RAD.

Dave
