At the end of last year Alex Donnachie wrecked his knee, snapping his ACL in on a rail move gone wrong in Croatia. He got knee surgery in December 2017 and has spent this year doing a tons of physio and is now back to street fitness. He set up this new 'purple haze' ALVX just before heading to Lyon for Bros Bike Store's Street Station Jam a few weeks back. Check out a run down of the parts he chose for this purple and gum beast...

A FEW WORDS FROM ALEX ABOUT HIS SETUP:
“So for this setup I chose the purple haze colour and gum tyres which contrast nicely I think. I'm also running some DBG dunks grips which are a super thin grip that I really like!”
