Vegas Day 2

2010-10-08T22:54:00.007-04:00

Sorry for the delay. Here is day two of Vegas.

So this is my new steed. Yes this is the same bike on the cover of the Leader catalogue but I swapped the drops for the Leader straight bars. Dan from Leader hooked me up. Now this beauty is riding around the streets of Toronto getting all the attention. Leader is amazing there bikes and components are second to none.

Dan for Leader and Pedal Consumption with some YNOT Straps

Patrick from PC with a YNOT u-lock rollie

Love the paint job

Maybe the new frame for the Volume 26" time will only tell

Livery Design Gruppe are amazing and their frames are works of art.

And the show was over as fast as it started.

Next year Anaheim we will be there for sure in full force. See you then.

Just got to Vegas

2010-09-23T03:19:00.000-04:00

Well I finally got here. I will be here at the Sands Expo Centre tomorrow for my first day of the show.

When you are as big as YNOT you get the great rooms.

With the great views ;)

Anyway it's a place to sleep. Looking forward to the show. I will be updating the blog during the day at the show if I can find some WIFI.

On my way to Vegas

2010-09-22T20:31:00.001-04:00

So I'm on my way to Vegas. I will try to blog pics from the trip along the way.

If you see this bag in Vegas say hello. You may get some YNOT gear.

Going to Interbike

2010-09-21T09:46:00.004-04:00

I am on my way to INTERBIKE tomorrow. I will be going down to check out all the new gear and hang out with our friends from Bike On Wheels and Modrobes.

Steven from Modrobes is doing some really cool stuff with their clothing line. All their materials are made from recycled pop bottles but they feel and perform better than the non-recycled stuff. Tom and I actually helped design their new ultimate bike jacket for the winter. This thing is going to be amazing. We will have some pics of it when it comes out in the next month or two. We are also going to be working on many more projects with Modrobes so stay tuned. If you are at Interbike come and say hi to Steven and the Modrobes crew at booth #4811. I'll probably be around there as well.

See you in Vagas

Swoo officially on All-City. Congrats buddy!!!!

Everyone seems to love the royal blue pro straps.

The checkpoint crew getting ready for the big race

I met Josh earlier in the day at the shop for the first time. He was picking up a pair or Blue Pro Straps for his sweet white IRO. I told him about the race and he decided to test them out and race the Alley Cat with them. Here is the email he sent me "Tony, these straps rock! I don't know how I ever rode without them." Thanks Josh for the positive feedback. So happy you decided to race.

Swoo after the win.

Raygo and Suke's Cobras

Envelope slot between back pad and bag for core-to-core deliveries, or whatever you like!

Top flap opened, bag can be used as a normal backpack.

Crammed with a bunch of crap.

View showing how the flaps "hug" any size load, with straps to sinch tight.

Pockets on each flap and each side of the 'bucket'. Large pocket between bucket and bag.

Wide open with a big load. (twss)

Proud owner Suke wearing it with that large load.

The first three "production" YNOT Cobras!

So there you have it, the Cobra! (it got it's name because it sorta looks like one when fully open)

Tell all your friends! If you want one you can email us and we'll figure it out. Right now they are $300, so save your pennies and let us know when you want one!

Tuesday Night Track Night and the 4th of July Cobra

2010-07-08T23:26:00.000-04:00

Last night at the Toronto tuesday night Track Night one of our boys from Japan brought buy his new Cobra. I know this is a little late and we are an all Canadian Crew (well Mosher has dual citizen ship) but here is our little salute to our riders in the USA. This is another Cobra with a little 4th of July USA colors mixed into it. (see I spelled without the "u" for our American buds)

That is what we like to call the fast pocket.

It starts out small but...

It can blow up when you need to take a massive load.

This thing is big I'm 6'2" and it makes be look small.

Check out the new single strap I got on hot off the machines Orange and Grey.

That is sweet YNOT line up.

YNOT CYCLE Cobra first pics

2010-06-28T21:24:00.000-04:00

Check out the the story at Bike Jerks about the first prototype nap sack that Tom and I (Tony) made called the COBRA. Well Tom and Toby cut it out and I sewed it up. That was a mission because it was on my mothers 30 year old industrial machine not made for sewing bags. It was not a walking foot so you can imagine how hard that was. Anyway that was in the days before we had the shop and the proper materials/equipment. But we did it, we tested it for a few months (we made that thing back in January) and made a few of them now. We will soon be ready to start pumping these things out. Now we are set up right and Tom and Finn have these new COBRAS dialled in. We will have some pics up soon of the new design so check back soon.
