Welcome to “Blagged Freebies Friday”… where we show you all things we blagged this week, by simply being in the bike trade. Please note… Any similarity between this pile of blagdom and that of a well respected cycle journal is purely suspicious.

ODI mushroom grip beer holders. The beautiful gents at Ison have given us these rather cool ODI bottle holders. They not only keep your beer cool, they are also dead “Bio” to use a 1980’s BMX term (substitute with “Rad” if it makes you happy). http://www.ison-distribution.com

“Ace” from the world’s leading British hardtail downhill race league visited the bikemongery for a Karate Monkey build. He left us with some espresso that goes by the name of “Haiti Voodoo Comet TM”. It’s as strong as the chainstays on a Santa Cruz Chameleon. http://www.hardtailnation.co.uk/

Landscape magazine is a damned fine read, and nowt to go with gardening. Not only is really rather well written and presented, it’s also FREE, What’s more a handful of copies double up as speaker stands. Drop by the shop for your FREE copy.
