What happens when you take two different riders and make them trade bikes? Here’s what happened to GT’s Albert Mercado and Leandro Moreira…
When it comes to riding BMX, there’s no bike like your own. Every rider has different preferences from sizes to angles, brakes vs brakeless, bar height, seat height, tire pressure, pegs, no pegs, front load versus top load stems, etc, etc, etc. It’s rare to find two identical bikes. With that being said, every bike rides a little different and adjusting to it can be tricky. During a recent GT BMX trip, Albert Mercado and Leandro Moreira swapped bikes. Not only are both these riders styles completely different, but their setups are night and day. Here’s a look at what they were able to throw down on each others bikes after a little time to get used to it.
“It’s crazy how different someone else’s can bike feel even with subtle differences in geometry—let alone an entirely different setup style. GT’s Albert Mercado and Leandro Moreira have polar opposite bike setups—Albert with four-pegs, no brakes and a coaster and Leandro with no pegs, brakes, and a cassette. They switched bikes for an hour and the results were pretty entertaining.

Here’s a rad one Ride UK dropped featuring Sam Chamberlain going to work on spots in Southern England. Sam has a somewhat jibby style with an eye for wallrides, transitions, rails and ledges. Sam has a bit of a Devon Smillie influenced style, which isn’t a bad thing. Take a peek!

Yumi Tsukuda is now doing it for The Hourglass Theory! Check out this welcome edit.
It would appear Yumi Tsukuda has been a hot commodity as of late! First he was added to the Fit Bike Co. Pro team, now it looks like he’s also representing The Hourglass Theory. Here’s his welcome edit that’s loaded with style and cruising on spots during his recent visit to California.
“I think it goes without saying, Yumi Tsukuda is one of the most influential riders of our time and it humbles me to welcome him to TheHourglassTheory. Working on “Sunshine” with Yumi was such a pleasure, from his amazing personality to all the style he brings into every part of his life. It leaves me at a loss of words. So as it goes, I’ll let Yumi’s unique sense of being speak for it’s self.

Scotty Cranmer has the guys test their manual skills…
It’s that time again for Scotty Cranmer to give the guys a challenge. This time around he decided to combine the obstacle course challenge with the manual challenge to see just who can go the distance. Check out what went down and who took the win between Matty Cranmer, Cory Berglar and Big Boy!
“ We did a BMX bike manual challenge behind my bike shop to test the rider’s skills! A manual is like a wheelie but with out pedaling the bike it takes bike control and a lot of balance! In this challenge we came up with 6 obstacles to really test the riders ability! After a lot of trial and error we came down to one champion of the BMX manual challenge!” – Scotty Cranmer
