Chrome Welcomes Massan

Chrome Industries is proud to announce the addition of Massan to the Chrome Familia. Hailing from Oakland, raised in San Francisco and now a finding himself at a new dwelling in the concrete playground of New York City, Massan has been a terror on the streets with his track bike for over ten years. He attacks the urban terrain like a cheetah stalking his prey with fluid precision and the control of a marksman. There’s not much else you can say about his style other than jaw dropping and his video parts online prove it. Not one to be satisfied by a single passion, Massan’s prowess extends beyond the bike where you can find his second talent as a skilled photographer. On and off the bike, Massan creates.

Be on the look out this weekend as Massan makes his first appearance as a Chrome Familia member at Red Bull Ride & Style contest in San Francisco, CA, where he will compete in the track portion of the contest. If you roll to the contest, it’s worth wathcing the crowds’ jaws drop as he rolls by like a flash of reckless abandonment.” – Chrome

Here are a couple sweet previews of how Massan rolls with “a flash of reckless abandonment” (dope description). Massan is definitely full of the Ride x Create Vibe!!

Chari & Co 2012 Kit

[slideshow]

I was crusin through Locked Cog and saw the slick 2012 kit from Chari & Co.  I had the chance to visit Chari & Co. while I was in NYC.  Super nice shop.  It was outfitted with everything you would want if you were to build a shop!  They thought of everything, from renting sweet fixed gears to having a full line of Outlier… they have it all.  Not to mention their sweet custom Chrome Yalta!  

Although I did not spend as much time as I wanted in the shop (it would have been seen as creepy) I did get to experience the Chari & Co. vibe, which is very low key and legit! With all this being said… definitely check out their sweet 2012 kit’s!  Ride fast, Ride hard, Ride x Create!!
