Well, finally we got our hands on the stage 2 prototype for initial testing at Angmering. Now this is still a prototype so it's not perfect, a little rough around the edges, but we will sort all that before production. Ignore the colour scheme this is a build it & test it exercise, to ensure the performance meets our expectations. How does it ride? Errrr well, lets just say we got it right 1st time. The performance is amazing. This bike feels like a much bigger bike to ride, it's stable, turns in very quickly & is well balanced. Although your backside is planted over the rear wheel, there is no sign of the front going light (at least not with the stock motor). You would never imagine you only have 12" wheels underneath you, the grip is immense from the standard CST slicks that will come on the bike, the back didn't step out once during testing & it was clear there was a lot more to come from this bike - once Callan has got used to the riding position (having only really ridden pit bikes for a quite some time). We tweaked the suspension & got a very nice set-up for Callan who is 11 1/2 stone. There is a massive range for damping adjustment for both the front & the rear & we will be supplying different weight springs for lighter or heavier riders should they require them. Here's the video as a taster of what you can expect from a stock production machine, although we will be using the YX160 4-valve as an engine option with a Hustle Race Cam as developed with Piper Cams in the UK.

Recent Shoot For Xtremeplaypen website - ohh wo is me it's a tough life
We were recently asked to get involved in a shoot for a new website due to be launched soon called 'xtreme playpen'. The site deatures alternative glamour models getting up to no good whilst palying at extreme sports. Well the owners of the site wanted some pit bikes & clothing & we were more than happy to oblige for such a good cause and to help them off the ground. Here is one of the far less risky shots. If you want me to email you some slightly raunchier ones, please email me marc@ridestomp.com as they are too hot to post on the blog - ahahaha RUDE BOI
You can become a fan of xtremeplaypen on facebook by clicking here (or copy text to your browser) http://www.facebook.com/pages/Xtremeplaypencom/125876864108974
The website will be called xtremeplaypen.com and will feature naked girls on stomp pit bikes amongst other things when it goes live. Keep an eye on facebook for when that might happen.
