We at Chari & Co. love crazy-colored bikes more than almost anybody, but let’s be real—black and white frames never go out of style. So, we totally understood when some of you were bummed that the new Gangsta wasn’t originally available in the two most timeless colors out there. That’s why we teamed up with BMW to hook you guys up with a very limited number of black and white V.2 frames (available in short and long).
If Mad Max rode a track bike, it’d probably be a murdered-out Gangsta. Throw some black Omniums, wheels, and risers on a black V.2, and you’ve got a rig that’s ready for a duel in the Thunderdome. On the other hand, nothing is more eye-catching than a white Gangsta cutting through a sea of yellow taxis in the dirty NYC streets.
Choose a color and build yourself a dystopian destroyer or a clean city machine today. These won’t last long!

For those of you that have been around the shop lately probably noticed us playing with these ball in cup games. It’s called Kendama and it’s pretty much taken over our lives while the cold starts to move in. Our good friend Maeda-San sent over a limited edition Kawasaki version. Thank you Maeda-San for the box!

I’ve been carrying around my Air Force 1 bag around for a couple years now and it hasn’t let me down. I can fill it up all the way to the top and ride around for miles with out feeling uncomfortable. I have a few SAG bags and each one has proven to be functional and incredibly durable. Check out the new styles and colors we just got in here.
