Chunky Monke is an Australian MTB parts retailer. This calendar is maintained as a resource for Australian riders. Event details are the responsibility of each organiser.
I'm Reagan — a school kid fromSouth Australia who got obsessed with mountain biking and then just as obsessed with how stupidly expensive the parts are.
A $250 stem? Nah. So I started Chunky Monke.
We do CNC stems, pedals, grips, and the rest with the same quality you'd find at four times the price, just without the premium-brand markup. Free shipping anywhere in Australia on all MTB parts, and if you've got a question, you're emailing me directly. No call centres. No corporate run around.
Everything I sell is stuff I'd actually run on my own bike. Some of it already is.
If you ride in Aus and want to refresh your cockpit without taking out a loan, you're in the right spot.
