Check out two full minutes of dialed riding footage. One right after another… Absolutely crushing it. This is one Instagram compilation that you won’t want to miss!

Anthony Napolitan, Randy Lawrence, Rick Thorne, Evan Lane, Ricky Mosely, Keith Treanor, Rich Sigur, Max Vu, Danny Hubbard, Xavier Mendez, & Brian Blyther.

Product: Reeb Cycles – Zak Early “ReeBMX” Frame – $800
When we posted up The Most Expensive Custom BMX Bike? post earlier today, we got quite a few people stirring about more expensive parts or ways to make a bike more expensive. Then, Jon over at Can You Dig It pointed out that Zak Earley has a signature frame through a company called Reeb Cycles that is priced at… wait for it… $800. We had to get a look at it, but unfortunately there wasn’t much for photos other than Zak’s personal bike. But, there were full specs and details.
The ReeBMX frame is made from Tru Temper OX Platinum tubing (the same stuff Standard Bykes uses) with a 75-degree head tube angle, 69-degree seat tube angle, 11.6″ bottom bracket height, 10″ standover height and a 13.6″ chain stay length. You can find an integrated head tube, gussets on the top and down tubes, a MID bottom bracket and welded seat stay brake mounts. It’s available in colors of white, silver, black, green, blue and red with a weight of less than 5 lbs. (doesn’t say an exact number).
We’re not quite sure if any have sold, but we can imagine those margins for a $800 frame are pretty healthy considering a Standard frame with the same tubing and features goes for around $400. The only frame that comes to mind that is / was more expensive was the Titanium Eastern Grim Reaper frame. You can check out the frame right here.
Scotty Cranmer – Game of BIKE: Wheel of Misfortune
We’ve seen a lot of Games of B-I-K-E over the years, but this is definitely a unique one. Scotty Cranmer cooked up the “Wheel of Misfortune” which adds to whatever trick the rider wants to do… Whether it’s a backwards fork, 25 PSI in the tires, shoes backwards or something else, it definitely makes this game pretty interesting. Check it out!
“So we decided to mix things up a little bit! A game of bike is awesome! But, what if you make a BMX wheel that spin with nails sticking out of the tires with a cardboard circle that has 10 different disabilities written on it that is built on a wooden stand and scrap parts from your garage? Then you have the Wheel Of Misfortune! We had so much fun filming this video and we were so happy with the way the game played out! I’m excited to do more of these!”
