Hammerhead GT80

The new Hammerhead GT80 is an off-road buggy for kids age 11 and upwards. It has two seats so your child can be joined by a friend in the fun of using this superb new vehicle, so make sure that your child and passenger doesn't forget to wear them. It will keep your child safe, busy and happy under the watchful eye of mom and dad for hours on end.

This new buggy, available from funbikes.co.uk, is built stronger and much more ruggedly than other similar buggies on the market. It has been built for children around the age of 11 to use, and although it is a smaller model, its chomoly tubular frame has been built with the strength of larger vehicles of this type. Which it needs, as this buggy has been designed to handle all terrains, and its full dual A-arm/ swing A-arm suspension will make driving over those rough bumps seem like smoothed out tarmac to keep your child comfortable.

Other characteristics of the new Hammerhead GT80 include an electric start and automatic drive for your child to get going, sliding bucket seats which allows the seats to be adjusted so their feet can touch the pedals, and a canopy top. The canopy top is removable, and it is great for use if you need the cover to shadow out the sun so that your child can see better, rather than having the sun shining directly into their line of sight. The engine is a four-stroke that runs on unleaded and the brakes are hydraulically powered. And in the unlikely event that you would need it, the Hammerhead GT80 comes with a one year manufacturer warranty.

Pit Bike Popularity Grows and Grows

As we have discussed on our blog before, the pit bike has an interesting history – from its early incarnation as a simple push bike with a small engine attached it has evolved in power, design and popularity to become a sport and a discipline in its own right.

Originally used in the pit areas of race tracks across America (hence ‘pit’ bike) as a quick and easy way of getting around, their popularity has taken off since the late 1990s as people realised that this type of bike had much more potential than just being used as a run around. Honda renamed their famous Z50 to XR50, modified it slightly to be more suitable for racing, and the pursuit of pit bike design perfection was on.

Since these early days, pit bike races and meets have popped up all over the UK and USA and their popularity has grown enormously. A quick internet search will show the level of interest in pit bikes and mini motos (along with increased interest in all things off road, including dirt bikes, buggies and quads), as clubs, organisations, race meetings and parts suppliers abound, along with discussion forums about everything from last night’s meet to new bike designs and developments. The fact that there are pit bike pros touring the US circuits now making a living purely out of race money and sponsorship shows the level of growth that has taken place in the industry over the past few years, with sponsors obviously feeling comfortable that they will get a decent return on in investing in the discipline’s most talented stars.

There are a variety of fully-fledged pit bike or mini moto racing series in the US, but the biggest event of the year is the Las Vegas Mini Supercross, where the pros pit their wits against each other (no pun intended!) in an effort to outshine their rivals. In the UK there are no big pit bike events as such to date (although there are hundreds of local tracks and events regularly across the country), but as the popularity of the sport continues to increase it is only a matter of time until the industry becomes big enough to support a full-on national race meeting.

So if this is a sport you like the look of, now is definitely the right time to get involved as the industry looks set to grow and grow.
