It may be cold and wet as hell (in Australia), but 2020 has some winter warmth to get you through the darker months inside our biggest issue yet. We get on the road with the Australian United crew. Colonys' unemplyed riders go to work. TripleSix takes it's massive team on the road with Ryan Sher and Hoang Tran along for the ride. And Ryan Guettler rocks his version of the most infamous road trip series with 'Kombi Fools'.

There's interviews with Chris Courtenay and Dean Manson plus one messed up photo spread that may have gotten Nick Gascoine kicked out of a darkroom?

Issue 36 comes complete with two massive pull out posters courtesy Unit and Back Bone BMX, plus there's a sticker sheet for the adhesive hungry masses. All this with your chance to win a Colony Descendent complete, a Zoo York clothing package or a Premium Duo Lopez bike.

You've got to admire people who do something good out of the ordinary in BMX. Rebelyell did it again by publishing a book. We got our copy from A to the Z and it's a keeper. Here's the info from Chris Pollack and his crew:
REBELYELL BMX MAG issue 9 'The Music issue - Book'.

Presented in a new format of a 'Coffee table book'. Rebelyell has now gone really thick. (in more ways than one). We've jammed in

We spotted this in a Danish newspaper and liked the idea a lot. It will store you magazines, remote controls, candy and whatever else you need to have handy. The sofa is a collaboration between Eastpak and the Quinze & Milan design studio and has resulted in a strange, but intriguing hybrid piece of furniture. The Club Sofa 01, part of the Built to Resist Collection combines a Quinze & Milan couch design with the functionality of backpack storage pockets.

The 2010 Mirraco Chocolate complete bike is ridden, designed and endorsed by Nigel Sylvester. He has taken it around the globe and is currently shredding in Japan. The Chocolate bike's got the full heat treated aftermarket frame and the complete bike weighes in at 24.3 lbs. Now read the spec list to see if this one would fit your type of riding. Yummie?

-T/T length:    21" top tube length

Subrosa have released their 2011 Lookbook. It's got their plans listed for the year 2011 and pictures of their new parts and complete bikes. I know, it's May 2010, but if you want to see what's coming up, flip through the book and read what Ryan Sher has to say.

Sidewall Distribution just received TSG’s Slim glove, new for their 2010 Summer line. The Slim glove is great for the summer heat and great for riders who do not like the feel of thick bulky gloves.
-Developed in co-op with Patrick Guimez
-Very light and slim design
-Stretch mesh material 

Color ED is like colored chrome. Many new SNAFU parts and accessories feature this material finish, their Hexagon pegs included. The green sleeve is color ED 4130. The sleeve is pressed over a fluted and machined 6061 forged alloy core. The hex washers lock into the back side of the peg and engage in the dropout to eliminate twisting. These hybrid pegs are among the most proven, practical and good-looking chromoly pegs on the market. Tell your local dealer to stock up, and while you're at it, tell him to stop selling the pegs that come with complete bikes as aftermarket pegs. He's ripping his customers off!
