November 16, 2009:

Wow, it's been close to a year since Porkchop BMX was founded and it's amazing how far we've come! We're now stocking nearly 700 products, a large portion of which are newly manufactured, making many items we remember from BITD available once again - and for a price you can afford. Old school BMX enthusiasts are now able to ride their bikes knowing they have safe, new tires - without having to settle for newer style tires. You can buy padsets as a set - instead of spending months (if not years) waiting for that missing orphan pad to come along (usually the top tube pad). And my personal favorite: No more settling for faded anodizing!

There is a lot more on the horizon coming up this next year - here are some highlights:

Porkchop BMX Blog
Within the next few months I will be launching a blog to keep customers informed about upcoming new products, product launch dates, and just pie in the sky projects I have happening. The blog format will also allow you to comment on what Porkchop BMX is up to and potentially influence what new products are brought to market and in what priority.
Monthly E-mail Newsletter
For those who have registered for the site, you will soon receive the first E-mail newsletter from Porkchop BMX. Since this did not exist when you first signed up, you will have an opportunity to opt out when you receive this first edition. Typically the newsletter will be once per month - although a major product launch may warrant its own e-mail announcement.
Project TwentySixTriBar Cruiser!
Interested in a 100% chromoly 26" cruiser frame inspired by the late 1970's triple bar cruisers? Then you're going to love this project. Tentatively scheduled to launch Spring 2010, to correspond to the arrival of 26" Comp III skinwall tire, this frame is going to be breathtaking. It will also be the first product bearing the Porkchop name. Details are still be worked out for a 100% chromoly fork, but the frame will launch regardless of a matching fork being available.
Robinson Giveway
Your chance to win a USA made Robinson MX is coming Spring 2010. Built up with all Porkchop BMX parts, some lucky winner will get this beautiful bike shipped to their door gratis (International customers will have to cover the difference in shipping versus U.S. shipping). As an added bonus, it will come complete with Serial #001 of the first edition of Flite Pro Pads.
