Funn's Gone Crazy, Elecktro Boogaloo ..

Nov 4, 2008
by Si Paton  
Break dance, you can do it... Seems you kids are running the show these days. Throwing down some serious styles straight outta Channel 4's Skins. (Ask someone with spots)

Now firstly can I apologies for popping these up and not warning you to wear sunglasses. Secondly that this isn't a full-on review (see what I did there?). It's just a quick glimpse of whats coming, not that you won't see it coming. Cycle related injuries on the road/highway may soon be at an all time low.

Soon to be backed by ROSPA, no reflectors needed.

Dragons Den need to get onto this sh1t.

These Funn Soljam Viper Pedals I'm pretty sure will only be in the sealed version that retail for around £59.99in the U.K. As favored by Dirt Magazines Steve Jones and myself and can I quickly mention we prefer them in Black as we're both well over thirty years of age.

Pink is the new White?

To keep our Aussie and New Z friends happy: This one's a Rippa



Retail will be around the £39.99 mark at a stab in the dark..

Glow in the dark? Carrots not necessary.

Funn FatBoys: Grange Hills Rowland loves these.



For those of you that run 31.8mm stems, Funn produce the FatBoy Bars.

Certainly a Full-On paint job here.


The weapon of choice for Sam Hill are the low rise Full-Ons and are only available in 25.4mm.

Now let's wait for all the responses from you Americans, the leaders in World fashion: High wasted Chino's, white trainers with white sports socks and oversized basket ball vests and stupidly long and baggy shorts.

Stay Unclipped.

 THE 80'S SUCKED THE FIRST TIME. I certainly don't want to put anyone else through the horror of that fashion era. Better hope your little brother or sister doesn't get your cast-off parts next season, cause there gonna get their ass's handed to them, for rocking these gawd awful parts ( and i mean awful as in "extremely disagreeable", not "inpiring awe".

 Too bad the paint on my Apollo Kosciusko has faded after 25 years, these would match nicely. And I could ride around in a flouro-pink Wham t-shirt, leg warmers and a g-string unitard! Mud-Hucker, you got it right. The 80's sucked the first time. I give you a prop.

 Funn gear is the absolute balls, I run Funn rims built around hope bigguns and an xt rear hub and they are tough as the proverbial funk. If their rims are anything to go by I'd recon that the bars and stems are rock solid!

 Was there any reason for the last sentence in this article? Way to stereotype dude, just stick to showing us the products and leave your personal opinions to the comments section like this.
  • 1 4
 yea, that was unnessecary.
  • 2 3
 Yeah I also agree, most Americans aren't like that. And for the sake of being a asshole back, go take a look at what Ryder Kasprick or Jordie Lunn wears. Who in fact, are both Canadian.

 As an American, I thought it was funny. Jus' sayin.

 'foxmtbing' emphasising my point even further, i mean 'coming from stuck up shitheads'...... bit of an overreaction, lets be honest. As you can see AndrewHornor you are a rare breed, all of you other boys and girls over the pond take note.

 How is that emphasising your point further. I just said it wasn't funny comming from you. And if you have such a sense of humor, you wouldn't have even responded to my comment the way you did.

 Not Shimano's Biopace, but some pros are using these eccentric chainrings:

I remember putting Biopace on my roadbike. The installation went sweet until I rotated the cranks for the first time and the teeth cut into my aluminium frame.
