Holiday Specials and Deadlines

November 24 2009 posted by Jack

Happy Holidays y'all! As we prepare for some family time later this week and the anticipation of a busy holiday season, we thought we'd let you know about all the special deals we've cooked up.

Black Bag Special ($120)
Get one of these simple but attractive bags for a low low price. All Black Bags are made with a black canvas exterior and recycled billboard interior. You chose the trim/buckle color.

Discounted Hip Bags ($30-35)
We’re knocking five bucks off our small and medium sized hip bags for a limited time only! There’s a stack of new ones coming together as we speak so check back often for new choices.

Grab Bag T-shirt Special ($30)
Save some money when you buy 3 t-shirts. Subject to availability as always.

Tote n Tee Special ($40)
Same as the grab bag but we throw in a tote bag made from recycled billboard.

Burro Bucks
Stumped? Pick up some Burro Bucks Gift Certificates and let them chose for themselves. Burro Bucks are applicable to all stock items and custom orders as well.

Cyber Saturday Sale
Who wants to battle crowds at the mall the day after Thanksgiving? Who wants to go to a mall period? Save some dough this season and buy online Saturday, November 28th to receive a one-day only 10% off your order.

Art Show Bags
Not a sale or discount per se but the day after our December 12th art show we’ll be putting the bags that don’t sell that night on the website. Each of these bags will be one-of-a-kind and feature collaborations with some very talented Jacksonville artists. The perfect gift for someone who deserves something unique and special.

Deadlines

Custom Orders
The cutoff for custom orders is December 5th so get those orders in PRONTO! After that a $25 surcharge will be added until December 9th, then it goes up to $50. Rush orders placed on December 11th will incur a $100 surcharge and custom orders taken after December 12th won’t be ready until 2-3 weeks after December 28th.

Online Orders
For stock orders, the last day to order and receive before Christmas is December 18th

Feel free to contact us if you have any questions whatsoever. Happy Holidays!

Pedal Consumption Pedal Strap Review

November 20 2009 posted by Jack

Patrick over at Pedal Consumption recently ran a very positive review of our pedal straps. As you can see, we’ve modified the original design just a little bit. The closure straps are now made out of recycled billboard that bounces back even more than the original design. We’ve also added a stash pouch for, you know, keys and stuff. They’re pretty awesome, but you don’t have to take my word for it. Head over to PC and read what he has to say.

Burro Stickers Are In!

Check out the new stickers! They’ll be included with all future orders as long as they last. You can also come by the shop and pick some up. Feel free to stick them wherever!

Break-In At Zombie

November 17 2009 posted by Jack

Bad news today. Someone broke into our neighbors, Zombie Bikes, and made off with a Specialized Rockhopper, another bike the boys built up to be sold and some tools. Not cool. It appears to be the work of someone who knew what they were looking for. Please keep an eye and an ear out for any leads. Thanks.

Happy Cranksgiving

Check out this event we are sponsoring in Urbana, IL.

If you live in the area, you should definitely check it out. We’ve hooked them up with some sweet Burro loot for prizes and it’s for a good cause.

I guess it’s about time we start saying Happy Holidays…

Fashion Show!

November 03 2009 posted by Jack

Apparently, our t-shirts are fashionable! Who knew. This Saturday at Club TSI you can catch the Main Ingredients B-Boy Crew modeling fresh Burro gear. The show features the fall collection of local designer nymphette as well as our good friends Arturo and Tact. It is sponsored by the good folks at Anomaly, Violet, Wolfgang, Crave and the Clothing Warehouse. Hair and makeup done really pretty-like by Oscar & Lula’s. Keep it wheel and keep it local!

Ace Metric Cat+Comp+Party

November 02 2009 posted by Jack

Our good friends at Ace Metric in sunny Orlando are throwing an event this Sunday with an Alleycat Race, a Trick Comp, and what will no doubt be a rager of an afterparty. If you ride in Orlando, you are no doubt familiar with Ace Metric. They have been carrying Burro gear for a while now and we are more than happy to support these guys and what they do. We here at Burro understand the difficulties that come with running a small business and do what we can to help out our friends. Locally run shops like Ace Metric are an essential part of a city’s culture and do far more for their city and scene than any corporate bike shop or department store so if you live in or around the Orlando area, you should definitely attend this event and support local small business. Plus, those Orlando kids do not mess around when it comes to busting rad tricks. Speaking of which, have you copped a pair of pedal straps yet?
