TOLA introduces: Featured Guest Blogger: John Reiss



Joe and I are getting ready to drop a whole bunch of New New for TOLA! over the next few weeks.

We got TOLA Hip Bags and Cell phone pouches dropping next week (pre-order will drop this weekend),

then all sorts of apparel coming at you, soon after. We got the new website coming, and the most live

coverage you have ever seen from Interbike in two weeks. We will be live and direct from Interbike covering all the bases.

Products, races, parties and the streets, will coming at you through this site, with a little help from some friends...


Because of how crazy busy Joe and I will be, we asked our good friend and amazing photographer

John Reiss, if he wouldn't mind posting from time to time. Hailing from SF, he's a welcome addition

to our Takeover Family. Funny thing, normally I write the intro, then the guest will post. Not John,

he jumped right in it yesterday. We got a go getta, I guess? Welcome to John!

Superb: Sprint Track Frame Prototype



I saw the teaser post on Superb's Blog last night and was hoping for a full shot of the

frame, sometime soon. Bewm, I got it this morning! Looks good. I'm a huge fan of

Lo-pro Pursuit Frames, so I'm really digging how all of these companies are dropping these jems!


Details from Superb:

"Here is a quick teaser of our first prototype. This one is called the Superb Sprint and is an aluminum frame with lugged steel fork.

It is amazingly light weight, matching the Cinelli Mash, and that has a carbon fork! More info and photos coming soon, keep your eyes pealed!"
