"The concept of a complete bike is an interesting one, many fall into the same category and remain stale and boring, many also lack any real imagination. The Volta is an insanely handsome BMX complete. Breathtaking in appearance it constantly continues to challenge the impression and perception of a complete BMX in every way. The spec for this bike is nothing short of a dream, with double walled welded rims, spline drive 26/9 gearing and healthy splattering of éclat’s finest components to round things off."

Neben Pro is a contemporary rounded sans-serif display typeface that has been design with meticulous attention to detail. The typeface has been specifically designed for large purposes.
Neben Pro has been crafted using a pair of fixed width parallel stokes with rounded terminals. The flow from the straight edged stems to the round counters adds contrast & definition to the letter forms. The typeface also uses natural breaks & ink traps in areas that connect & overlap the parallel stokes which means there are not sharp corners in the typeface.
