DUNBAR is giving away a bike on their NEW ONLINE STORE!

We are so stoked to be going online, we’re gonna give away a bike! At DUNBAR we don’t do things half ass, so we are not giving away a crappy bike that we couldn’t sell last year, we are giving away one of the sickest dirt jump bikes on the planet, a custom built Evil Faction! Make a purchase online, and you will be automatically entered. We will be giving the bike away just before Christmas. Think, you could be on a shiny new ride for Christmas and get some sweet gear at amazing prices!

Winner will be announced December 15th, 2009

Nov 20, 2009 - by Jordan Holmes
Cam McCaul is one of the most premier riders of our sport today. He can kill it on the track, rip up the dirt jumps, and keep you laughing till you want to cry, while still busting out some of the most unique lines, and tricks. Recently on my trip to Aptos California I got a chance to check out Cam's new bike, however Cam didn't have too much spare time so I got him to do his bike check while he was riding to cut down on filming time.

The dramatic loss in elevation from the rocky peaks to the wide-open valley floors is part of what makes Switzerland a mountain biker’s paradise. With Mont Blanc in the distance, and a meadow of purple and pink flowers all around, I took grasp of my handlebars, took grip of my pedals, and dropped in on the perfectly winding singletrack that would drop me over 4,600 feet in a single run.

Big Mountain Bike Adventures had brought me to my own personal paradise.

You may know him or remember him as the guy that wrote the "What makes the Photo Of the Day different from other pictures?"and "The Greatest sport in the world!"blogs. Riders in the province of Ontario, Canada may see him as "balls to the wall" or the guy that builds awesome bicycle trails non-stop and then f'en sends'er. I see him as "Fartigus Maximus" and a huge motivational, inspiration to a lot of people that know him. Point being he is a legit rider that you may want to find out more about...

The C Files: Calgary Cycle Custom Builds- Santa Cruz Blur LTC

The C Files: Calgary Cycle Custom Builds- Santa Cruz Blur LTC
12 Photos
Nov 19, 2009 - by Calgary Cycle
Back in May, Calgary Cycle was one of 5 Santa Cruz dealers in the world to receive the newly re-designed and fully re-dialed 2010 Santa Cruz Blur LT Carbon. This frame, Santa Cruz claims is the strongest frame they’ve ever built with the stiffest chassis they’ve ever built- bar none. The frame and shock come in weighing 1 pound lighter than the previous version (5.6 lbs. to be exact) and the Blur boasts 140mm of travel to boot along with VPP2 suspension. “This bike isn’t some long travel lightweight XC experiment. Think of the Blur LTc as a hairy chested all-mountain ass kicker. In a hockey mask. Holding a chainsaw.” Enough said.

Calgary Cycle was stoked to have one on the shelves… which didn’t last long!

Read on to find out about the lucky rider who laid eyes on it first and built up the ultimate mountain rippin’ machine.
