Joel Nicholls Bike Check

When you work in a bike shop, one thing that you notice are the trends that are happening out there. All I can say is, since Joel (and the Dissrm crew) have started riding in Southampton, brakes have started to come off, and more and more people are trying to "shoot them Bs"! Somebody once told me that Pijin was a tweaker shop... looks like things have changed a bit... and if you ever visit the shop now, you'll have even chances of bumping into a rider with a New Era flat cap and no brakes and a rider with girls jeans and big tweaker bars! The street influence has finally arrived down in sunny Southampton.

Joel's had his new bike for a good few weeks now... so the bike check is long overdue. Sorry for the delay but I have been a bit lazy on my blogging duties of late.

Don't forget to also check out the Dissrm blog too to see the London Tour video, starring Joel and the Westlake Bros! www.myspace.com/dissrm
