A few weeks ago on Rob Dyrdek’s Fanstasy Factory they introduced a majority of the world to the sidehack BMX bike, seen here or take a look at the Impakt Bicycles sidehacks on the official website HERE

Oh man,
Here’s your chance to get a Mike Giant tattoo, finally!
As seen on REBEL8.com Mike Giant will take some appt’s with some stipulations!!!!

Want a tattoo from me? Well, now might be your chance. I’m currently taking on new black and grey projects at $300 an hour with a one hour minimum. And $350 an hour for color since I’m colorblind. Also, I won’t do anything that takes more than 3 hours to complete. I don’t want to start any more big stuff. I only want to do tattoos I can finish in one sitting. If you’re game, please EMAIL  mike at mikegiant.com. Thanks!
