Today I’m really happy to announce some good news for all UK based street & dirt riders. This is something I have been working on for a while, and I’m very excited to say that RideStreet.co.uk is now the official UK importer for the Russian brand Pride-Street!!!
If you know about the brand already, then I’m sure you’ll be just as excited as I am to hear this news, if not, then here is a little info about the brand brought to you buy the guys who run one of the best street/dirt/park blogs around, VVCForce. Here’s what they say about Pride-Street:
“This is vvcforce team, friends and other people. We start making our components because there is no stuff on market that we need, strong and with good geometry. After riding for many years on all brands we understand that we need something new! So we start it!
About components: One year ago we start modeling and then producing our new frames, new bars, forks and other components (that we will show soon), and after stuff was ready (1 month) we start testing them and upgrading, to make perfect stuff for people who ride.
Everyone who take part in producing or modeling new part, have lot of skills in riding and another good skills.
This is simple, from riders to riders!”
Our first order will be for the Pride-Street ‘Profit’ handlebars, and this will hopefully be going in later today. We will only carry a limited number of colours from the range, so if there is something you are particularly after, then please e-mail us asap & we can sort something out for you!
