SNEAK PEEK!

Last week we received two colorways of our new 24" race bike (one black, one red) for review and we're pretty stoked on how they turned out.

Lots of new features on this one including 3 piece cranks, threadless forks, euro bottom bracket, sealed hubs, v-brakes and all new graphics!

The chrome version went to stress testing and if all goes well, we'll be sharing detailed pics and videos very soon.

Swipe for teaser pics and don't forget to hit the link in our bio to get on the waitlist!

ETA UPDATE: we're still working on timelines for the bikes with the manufacturer and will open up pre-orders as soon as we have a more defined date range. 

MERCH ALERT

We've stocked up on hoodies, beanies, and long sleeve tees for the chilly months! Be sure to grab one if you're going to be heading out to ride or just need some gear to keep you warm.

Order a hoodie, beanie, or long sleeve tee this weekend and we'll send you a FREE set of Prospect Donuts by Flite and our new stickers!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

We hope you all have an amazing day with your family and friends. No doubt some of you will be getting rad bikes, parts, and accessories and we can't wait to see everyone's pics.

Side note: you may have noticed that we've been flying under the radar lately but rest assured we have some great things in the works. We'll be providing an update on the 24" race bikes and much more very soon! 

Have an awesome Christmas!

Love seeing pics of modded Generations! I was going to post the specs of each bike in this post but thought it would be cooler to see some bike check videos of everyone breaking down their mods.

We'll be posting some bike checks on YouTube in the coming days to get the ball rolling...

(1) Chad's Mint - total 80's color combo

(2) Mike's Chrome-Lite - the Mod Master

(3) Danny's Ice White - subtle yet practical, just my style

(4) Ronn's Bermuda Blue - peep the sticker on the cranks

(5) Carlos's Ice White - black mags and bars look awesome

(6) Chris' Mint - clean but nightmare inducing, peep the pedals

(7) Adam's Chrome Lite - one word... DAYUM!

(8) Jason's Ice White - love the Dyno and Hutch brake guards

(9) Dustin's Bermuda Blue - first I've seen with red tires, looks rad

(10) Jason's Ice White - blue accents really set this one off

Which modded Generation is your favorite?

Something new...

I typically work on 1 to 3 tricks per week and try to dial them in by riding a minimum of 1 hour per day. My goal is to ride away from each by the end of the week, but sometimes it's just about making a little bit of progress towards landing the tricks.

That said, I was watching Morning Ride video last week on his YouTube channel and I decided to adopt his approach to my riding for the next few weeks.

Instead of working on 1 to 3 tricks, RL has a list of 15 tricks (or so) that he works on. He tries each trick 5 times and then moves on to the next.

So, I made my list of tricks (which is closer to 20 currently) and I started this process today. My son decided to join in as well (finally 👊👊).

One thing I like about this new approach is that it will force me to work my balance and bike control in a number of different scenarios vs. just a couple, which should improve my riding overall. I am curious to see how this goes over the next few weeks. Wish me luck on the Decades cause I've been getting wrecked 💯

What is your riding routine? Do you have a set list of tricks that you work on? Do you focus on a few or many at a time? Tell us below...

Hey RL and Windy fans! The print sale is now live and you have 24hrs to place your order. To get your prints, visit and click the link in the profile or go to https://www.rlosborn.com/clothingandgear/art-prints

After you get your print, be sure to check out the video RL, Dylan, and Mr. Handsome the Cat made about the prints on their YouTube channel. RL peppers in some cool details and history about each of the photos that you don't want to miss 💯

PS. thanks for the shoutout in the video, Dylan. Appreciate it! 🤘🤘

TIME TO MAKE THE DONUTS!!!

And we did...

When we decided to create 80's style bikes, donuts were one of the first accessories that popped into mind.

Not only do they look cool on your bike, they provide a nice cushion between your hand and your grip's fl**ge to keep your skin from getting irritated.

We didn't care about the latter part when we were kids (but they do help) - donuts were just a cool way to personalize our bikes, fun to collect, and trade with our friends.

Prospect Donuts are made from neoprene and fit most grips. Sold in pairs, available now in our IG Shop or on our website at www.prospectbicycles.com/accessories/donuts

Shout out to FliteBMX (the inventor of bmx donuts) for working with us on this project!

Did you have donuts on your bike in the 80's?
