I WANNA BE, YOUR SLEDGEHAMMER.... No, Volume Bikes isn't really a big fan of late Peter Gabriel music, but they do have a sweet new complete bike on the market, which is unlike any other bike currently available in the "BMX" market. The Volume Sledgehammer is a 26" race-inspired BMX bike that's tailored for the older rider that still fancies jumping curbs while on the way to the liquor store, or the recent recipient of a DWI. The Sledgehammer features a chromoly mainframe, 3pc tubular cranks, a Euro B/B and V-brakes. It retails for just around $400 in the U.S., and is now available from better Volume Bikes dealers.
If you need more information on the Volume Sledgehammer, or if you're worried that Brian Castillo might be hanging up his Dinosaur in
search of some big freestyle mountain bike money, check out volumebikes and see what Volume has to offer. (No, Castillo isn't going anywhere. That's a joke....)
