5&A Dime Gumball 3000 Evo X MR

Hey guys,

5&A Dime is a streetwear clothing store here in San Diego (www.5andadime.com) We were approached by Maximillion Cooper, founder of Gumball 3000, about participating in the Rally. Of course, we couldn't turn it down. So we approached Mitsubishi about the Evo X MR and they were down from the get-go.

The Rally starts tonight up in San Francisco, and goes through LA, San Diego, Vegas, North Korea and China. Hypebeast (www.hypebeast.com) and our blog will be covering the daily updates from our team.

So here's what we're working with.

















The bike is a 2008 SE Om Flyer. We have a few Greddy bolt ons, Cusco Coils, and the Volk Re30s. Car came out really good, we're super stoked on it.

Please excuse the dirty car and not so great pics. We finished the vinyl at like 130am and didn't shoot photos til 3am. we were a bit tired.

You know, all of us here at the store are old-school bmx nuts, so we wanted to tie that in. Also, it's a small detail that will help us stick out a bit among exotics. we also want to ride a bike through north korea

we're also kinda hoping that it flies off at 130mph, could make for a funny video haha

Hahahaha, nice. I too am an ex-BMXer. It was tripping me out to see SE again. Just wondered if there was a purpose.
