St. Louis BMX Jam Held At Gun Point

April 26, 2018

Welp… It looks like that guy wasn’t too stoked on BMX.

The Capital Crew threw their annual street jam in St. Louis that drew in a bunch of riders for a full day of riding street spots, good times and a crazy old guy waving his gun at them. We’re not sure what made the guy so mad, and we could imagine whatever the situation was could have been handled better by both sides, but he definitely wasn’t doing himself or anyone any favors handling a gun the way he was. Either way, here’s a full recap of what went down on and off the bikes throughout the day. It looks like it was a success overall.

“Saturday, April 7th we hosted the second annual Capital-Lou-Jam in Downtown St. Louis, MO.
100+ bike riders traveled to St. Louis from all across the continent to partake in the annual ride & contests.
We rode bikes, got threatened by a crazy guy with a gun, raffled off a Custom BMX Bike, & so much more!” – Capital Crew

Mastering the Art of Flatland BMX with Alex Jumelin

April 26, 2018

It’s safe to say Alex Jumelin has this flatland thing mastered…

Here’s a rad one we spotted on Flat Matters featuring Alex Jumelin laying down a bunch of wild flatland combos for Coast Cycles! This was all filmed in one session at the same spot, making it pretty ridiculous he was able to knock all of this out in one go. Alex is a flatland master for sure.

Mutant Bikes – Bionic Cranks with the Spliner System Explained

April 25, 2018

Mutant Bikes put together a video showing you how their Bionic Cranks with the Spliner system works…

Thinking about getting a new set of BMX Cranks? Here’s a video showing you how the Bionic Cranks from Mutant Bikes works. These cranks use Mutant’s patented Spliner System that uses a split axle design that has a spacer with threads inside the bottom bracket. The system uses compression from a long bolt to pull both sides into the threaded spacer for a strong, tight fit that spins smoothly. This video shows how the cranks go together and how the Spiner System works. It’s a unique concept, but it looks real clean and strong.

“MFOBMX Company developed a new crank system, were the axle is divided in half and becomes an integral part of each arm, the tightening is made inside with just one 8mm allen bolt and a Spliner® Boss with 48 spline that also works as a spacer between the bearings. SPLINER® is a patented system, tested several times during years and approved. Thicker arms than regular cranks and shorter axle to prevent twisting, also the crank shape, was designed to don’t hit the ankles.

The sections from Bone Deth‘s “The Dirty Sniff” DVD continue to flow! This time around we get a look at Josh Delarosa‘s section that is about 70% roof drops an 30% drops off other things to flat, rails, ledges and more.
