Block 8 Bikes is still alive!

Despite some speculation about Block 8 going away we wanted to let you all know that the brand is very much alive and well. Despite some tech troubles with our old site which essentially erased it off the face of the earth and cyberspace we have been grinding away in our top secret Block 8 compound on new products and a new website.

The detonation of the old site was a good opportunity to get a whole new vibe going and although it is only just getting started we are stoked to announce that www.block8bikeco.com is now getting under way. It is only just a logo with a notice of more to come but it’s a start!! Look for the site to have new product info and a whole lot more depth and variety than our old site.

In other news the new frame is in the works along with a few other new arrivals to the line-up. Expect the frame to have the same mad skills as the old one with some updated geometry, lighter tubing and much more durable graphics kit. Along with the new products that are in the works, all the old favorites are getting some long overdue love as well.

Stop by to visit the booth at the Outdoor Show in Calgary this weekend of April 5th and 6th to get a smoking deal on the vertical dropout Journeyman frame as they are going for 300$$ during the show and will also be available at all Block 8 dealers for that price as well. Sale prices on Block 8 handlebars are in effect as well.

Keep riding.
