Bushfire Raffle - Let's Make A Difference Together!

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 8 January 2020  

The bushfires that have swept through Australia are terrifying and heartbreaking.  We’ve teamed up with BMX International and will be raffling off a Fit Bike Co Series One (2020) with all proceeds to be split evenly between the Red Cross and WIRES charities.

Tickets are $5.00 each and there's no limit to how many you can purchase. Winner will be drawn on the 19th of January.

*Stay tuned for fundraising jam announcement coming soon too...

Bushfire Relief - Donate Today!

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 6 January 2020  

With a percentage of Australia on fire, we're urging you all to dig deep and donate what ever is possible for you at this time.  Friends all over this beautiful country are in need.  Hit the image below or this LINK for every option where donations can be made.  Our thoughts go out to everyone that has been effected by these devastating fires. 

Please note that the fires are also affecting Australia Post and courier deliveries around the country. Even if you're not near a fire the fires may be affecting the route of the package. Orders may be subject to extended delivery times and your patience during this period is much appreciated.

Extended Order Processing Times

Hey all!

We hope you had a great end to the year. We sure did. We're back to business as usual and we're looking forward to a killer 2020!

Just a heads up to let you know that there may be a slight delay on our usual processing times. We've received an overwhelming amount of orders during the break and we'll be working overtime to get caught up and all sent out ASAP!

We're hoping to be fully up to speed by early next week. In the meantime thanks for your patience and understanding.

Stay LUX!

Just Look At This Thing!

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 27 September 2019  

A few of us were lucky enough to meet the owner of Wethepeople at the beggining of this year, during that meeting we received an exclusive preview of the 'what was to be' the 2020 Wethepeople Bikes.  One bike stood out right away for obvious reasons, as it wasn't stritcly a BMX bike- this thing was a beautiful mosterous creation that was just asking to be taken anywhere you wanted, yet still had that OG classic styling, almost beach cruiser-esk... (you understand what I mean by 'beatifully mosterous' now don't you?)

Well yesterday we received an epic delivery, which contained all of the higher end Wethepeople 2020 Bikes, including this epic creation 'The Wethepeople Avenger 27.5In Bike (2020)'.  The guys couldn't wait to put this together, and the 'froth levels' have been high ever since...  Get in store or add this bike to your cart fast, as at this rate our staff will have cleared us out...

Wethepeople 2020 Bikes Are Here

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 5 September 2019  

The first selection of 2020 Wethepeople Bikes are now in stock and in true Wethepeople style these have surpassed expectations.  This first selection of bikes are all priced below $600 & &700 too, which means that our current entry/ mid level range now has some serious competition.  The spec throughout and fine attenttions to detail put these bikes in a class of their own year after year- well done Wethepeople or 'Ausgezeichnete Arbeit'!

2019 Vans Rebel Jam Finals Video

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 31 July 2019  

Wow! Another epic event put on by the epic crew over at Vans, this years Rebel Jam in Huntington Beach, CA looked absolutley out of hand.  Our boy Boyd Hilder was on location and added another medal to his already stacked 2019.  This event looked unreal, with Dennis Enarson & Garret Reynolds joining Boyd on the podium.  The rider list at this even was off the charts, featuring Alex Donnachie (check that new Aqua Fade ALVX AF Frame in action), Ty Morrow, Read Stark (again, check his new BSD Safari Frame in the Girrafic colourway...yew), Bruno Hoffman, Dakota Roche, Devon Smillie, Perris Benegas, Natasha Wetzel, Broc Raiford, Chad Kerley & Kevin Kalkoff plus more... All up this looked like another killer event, and we're damn stoked to have LUXBMX riders present and continuing to stoke the fire... Yeah Boyd!

LUX Aeterna- Available For Digital Download!

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 5 July 2019  

It's an absolute pleasure to announce that our very own LUX Aeterna DVD is now available for digital download...

Filmed and edited by Mike Vockenson, LUX Aeterna follows the LUX BMX team over the past 3 years as they work their way around Australia, from the rail ridden suburbs of Perth, the tropical energy of Cairns to the cold, dark hills of Hobart. AETERNA; meaning eternal and LUX; meaning light. The project illustrates the enduring drive and fortified passion of those involved in pushing the limits of strength and character, all in the name of a BMX video. To some, it may seem crazy, it might seem like an obsession, possessed even. The eternal light, it has possessed us all...
