Hello, this is Ren.

This may come as a surprise, but today we received some limited edition items from an American component brand.
What's more, various brands appeared at the same time, as if in unison.
What a coincidence. I personally find this most heartwarming.

There are three brands that arrived: THOMSON, PAUL, and PHILWOOD.
All of these are brands that we all love.

Some of you may already know about this as it was already announced on our story this afternoon, but we would like to introduce it here again.

THOMSON X4 DRESS UP KIT "CERAKOTE"
GREEN & ORANGE ¥11,000-INTAX
Let's start with this brand. The first brand that people look up to when they get into fixed gear bikes, "THOMSON," has released a limited edition color dress-up kit.
Instead of regular anodizing, it has a cellar coat finish, giving it a smooth texture.
The logo is then laser engraved on top.

I thought it would be a perfect match with the orange and green of the BLANKS, so I tried it out right away.
It's a perfect fit.
This will be fun for future customizations, and you can also use it to update your current X4 stem.
What's most exciting is that it's limited edition and once they're gone it's gone.

PAUL "HAVE A NICE RIDE" TOP CAP
COLOR ¥7,128- / POLISH ¥8,228-INTAX
Next up is this special limited edition item.
We announced the pre-order a while ago, and now it has arrived.
This design is very PAUL-esque. It is said to be based on the pad adjuster of a disk brake caliper.

There are 10 colors available, and we have 6 of each of them available.
I already put orange and polish on my fixed gear bike. It looks like this.

To be honest, I wanted to buy all the colors, but then I realized that even if I bought that many, I wouldn't have anything to wear, so I stuck with these two colors.
Well, if I have any left over I'll buy the remaining colors too (lol)

PHILWOOD RBG SPLASH WATER BOTTLE ¥3,080-INTAX
This is a commemorative item created to celebrate PHILWOOD's 50th anniversary.
The sale will start on the weekend of April 20th. Everything in the photo is included.
The drink bottle has a splatter design, which is the same design as the limited edition wheel, another 50th anniversary item.

PHILWOOD HUB SHELL CARD HOLDER ¥8,800-INTAX
Another hub-shaped item is a card holder.
Items that were damaged during the manufacturing process or that could not be used as products were reused and turned into interior items.
We didn't know the color until it arrived, and since it was a completely assorted set, we ended up with these two.
There will be one each of high and low flanges. First come, first served.

These are the special items this time.
All of these items are limited edition, so there will be no next shipment. They are first come, first served items.
I don't know why I want this but I want it.
This is why I can't stop customizing fixed gear bikes.
