So Last year we launched our hubguard, the hub buddy, over the last few months we have been working on a lighter version and we just received samples for testing. They came out at 91 grams (3.2 oz) which we are really happy with. There is quite a few changers to this from O.G hub buddy the biggest being the new shape, this will push whatever you are grinding towards the peg and for riders who do not run pegs the small flat section should give a little more to grind on. If all goes well these will be out before Christmas. Now it is time to let the team test 'em.

Last week I sent the team and some of the people that work for us an e-mail and asked them to send in their Tops 5's right now, just all the stuff they are feeling right now. So everyday I'm going to be putting a new one up. First up is Young Ryan, yeah bro:

1. swimming
2. The Fountain
3. Joy Division
4. protein 2k
5. T-1 sessions
