BSD – White Donnasqueak and Donnastreet Tires

November 22, 2017

Looking to freshen your bike up with some white tires? BSD have you covered with their Donnasqueak and Donnastreet tires.

The crew at BSD decided with the winter ready to hit, they might as well make some white tires for you to get your hands on. We’re sure that’s not the actual reason, but let’s just pretend it is. They have released the Alex Donnachie signature Donnasqueak and Donnastreet tires in this new white with black wall color option to freshen your bike up with.

Above is the Donnastreet tire. Both tires are made from the same great rubber compound that gives you plenty of grip and the right amount of squeak. The difference between the two tires are the tread patterns. The original Donnasqueak tire has a more aggressive tread pattern that is ideal for street, ramps, even a little dirt. The newer Donnastreet has a smoother pattern with a similar look, but is more ideal for street riding.

Both tires are available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry BSD worldwide starting this week! The Donnastreet comes in 2.30″ and 2.40″ sizes and the original Donnasqueak comes in 2.25″ and 2.40″ sizes.

Business BMX II DVD – Ryan Gagnon Section

November 22, 2017

Check out Ryan Gagnon’s section from the “Business II” DVD!

If you’re looking for a faster paced BMX video that is full of some wild riding and some what of squirrelly style (we mean that in the best way possible). This is for you! Ryan Gagnon goes fast and big for his “Business BMX II” DVD part. Hit play and take this one in. You won’t be disappointed!

“Ryan is primarily a park rider but kills it riding street as well… Unfortunately that last crash in this part put him out for a long ass time, right around the beginning of filming for Business II. He still was able to come through with some awesome fast stuff, with a bit of park footage mixed through as well.” -Ian Fleming

“Business II is a scene video out of Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada that has been 5 years in the making. The entirety of this video was filmed on the east coast of Canada, featuring a long line up some of the most talented street riders in the Maritimes, with tons of different styles. We hope you enjoy it.”

Scotty Cranmer – Wheel of Misfortune Returns

November 21, 2017

The Wheel of Misfortune has made its way back to Scotty Cranmer’s channel…

Whenever the Wheel of Misfortune comes out, you know things are going to get interesting. After a little hiatus, Scotty Cranmer decided it was time to have the crew give it a go once again! This time around the whole crew decided to play a game of B-M-X with the wheel dictating what kind of add on they have to do for the tricks they call out. Check out what goes down!

“The crew got together at my skate park to play another game of wheel of misfortune on our BMX bikes! Ever since we came up with this game it has been a favorite of ours to play here on our channel! Competitive BMX tricks and different handicaps given to make them that much more difficult to complete! Even though the riders compete against each other they all had such a good time laughing the whole game! But at the end only one rider can become the wheel of misfortune champion!” – Scotty Cranmer
