BMX Streets “Pipe” Coming To XBOX?

December 28, 2017

The long awaited “BMX Streets” game will be coming out on XBox… Finally.

UPDATE: This is an older post. According to Mitch, BMX Streets Pipe is now available for XBOX One! Learn more here: BMX Streets Pipe Now On XBox One

Here’s some news we randomly stumbled across on Youtube’s suggested videos that we have a feeling some of you will be real stoked on. According to this video, the BMX Streets “Pipe” demo should be dropping on XBOX soon. It’s currently available for PC for $10, but it looks like they’ve been working on getting it to XBox as well. As you can see from the video, the demo is just a big halfpipe, a weird mini ramp and a few benches and not the full game that’s been in the works for… what feels like forever. However, it’s a step in the right direction. If you have been waiting for this option, we’re sure you’ll be stoked on it. I’d keep your eye on the BMX Streets Website to see if it pops up. According to this video it should be some time after Christmas, which is where we are at right now.

Sneak Peek: Demolition Parts – Blood Splatter Colorway & Rotator V3 Freecoaster

December 28, 2017

Demolition Parts coming through with a double whammy sneak peek giving us a look at their new Blood Splatter colorway and Rotator V3 freecoaster hub…

We’re always excited to see what a brand has coming for new product. The crew over at Demolition just dropped a sneak peek that is a two for one in that department. First off, you will notice the new Blood Splatter color that they will be offering on a few of their parts in the near future. The second is that this is a look at their new RotatoR v3 Freecoaster hub. Comparing the V3 to the V2, it looks like the hub shell was given an updated and slimmed down look with some extra machining and a laser etched logo and a hub guard is now included with the hub. No word on if the internals changed at all, but we would imagine they will still be utilizing the KHE internals like before. Expect this hub and the new color out in February.

“We’ve been fairly hush hush on our new 2018 goods but thought we’d give you a little taste of what’s coming in Feb. This is our new Demolition Blood Splatter colorway on the all new V3 Rotator hub. 2 sneak peeks in one! Stay tuned for more soon…” – Demolition Parts
