Colony BMX – Griplock Tire

October 16, 2016

It has been a while since Colony had introduced their Agenda tire, so they decided it was time to add another BMX tire to their line up. Here’s a look at their new Griplock tire that is designed for street, ramps, dirt or whatever you end up riding on. The tire has a 110 PSI rating with a 60 TPI construction with a fast rolling, low resistance tread pattern that wraps around to the sidewall. They have used a hard harder rubber for the sidewalls to help resist wear and tear rom grinding and made it available in two sizes; 2.35″ and 2.20″.

The Griplock tire also comes in an assortment of colors; black, purple, dark grey, emerald and grey Storm. This tire is hitting BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Colony worldwide now! Check out more photos below.

All of the color options for the Griplock tire.

Colony’s new Emerald green colorway that will be available on a bunch of their parts. Check out more here — Sneak Peek: Colony – Emerald Colorway

Here’s a look at the Grey Storm color. We have seen a few other brands tires use a similar color pattern, but I think this is the first grey tire to do it.

Regular grey for those of you who aren’t into storms.

Purple has been a hot color lately for BMX parts.

Scotty Cranmer Road 2 Recovery Fan Compilation

October 16, 2016

Here’s a video we spotted on Youtube that Mikey Manfs put together as a video to show some support for Scotty Cranmer who had a serious crash in Las Vegas a few days back and has been in the hospital. This video has highlights from Scotty’s Youtube channel, along with a few older clips from contests where he won or took some heavy slams, but got back up to get it done. There’s no denying that Scotty is super tough and will get back up and on his bike like he always has. If you’re looking for an update on Scotty’ current status, check out this video — Scotty Cranmer Injury Update. Also, please check out the Road 2 Recovery website and, if you can, make a donation to help with the medical expenses and everything.

Made this little video for my Home Skatepark Hero. Scotty recently took a bad fall and Road 2 Recovery kicked in only an hour after his fall, meaning his recovery might be a bit of a road trip, but like he said in his own words, the hero always gets back up. I believe in you Scotty and I will definitely have you and your family in my prayers. I hope you see this video and it puts a smile on your face! Share this video with him and your friends to raise awareness and help raise money for his surgeries. This video is only monetized (with advertisements) to raise additional money for Scotty and his family! I will not profit from this video whatsoever and I will make sure to prove that when the check comes in that I am not profiting from this video! Scotty is my idol and one of my biggest YouTube and riding inspirations. This is evident in some of the content I post.”

Scotty Cranmer Injury Update

October 15, 2016

Here’s an update on Scotty Cranmer‘s current situation with his injury from a really bad crash in Las Vegas. Big Boy took over the camera to explain what’s going on over the course of the past few days, what Scotty’s current situation is, the plan for everything and more. We also get some insight from Scotty’s dad that gives us a little more detail. It sounds like he’s doing better and better every day, so that’s really good to hear. We have the link for the Road 2 Recovery Fund where they’re taking donations to help with Scotty’s hospital bills and everything. We’ll keep you posted when we know more.

“Road 2 Recovery Fund Link
https://road2recovery.com/cause-view/scotty-cranmer/

On October 12th, 2016 Scotty, Ronny, and I(Big Boy) arrived in Las Vegas for the monster cup. It was a free day and we only had a couple more hours of daylight so we decided to go film a video for the channel. The session was going amazing until the accident. Scotty suffered from a fluke crash that no one could have prepared for and ended up needing to be rushed to the hospital. Ronny and I stayed the night with him until his wife and father arrived the next day. The first day we arrived at the hospital he was in rough shape, the second day he was making improvements but still having some major issues, and by the third day he is acting more like himself and is making amazing progress. The road 2 recovery is fundraising money for Scotty to cover a majority of his expenses so that he can get the best treatment possible. Please everyone have Scotty in your thoughts and with all of your positive vibes he will pull through. Regarding the channel Scotty’s wife has asked if I would continue it while he is hurt. I am going to 100% going to keep it going because I know nothing would make him happier because he loves all of you that follow our channel like a family. I will try to get as many videos out but they might not be daily and I am flying back to New Jersey tomorrow so there will be a little break until I get back and get everything all sorted. This channel means the world to Scotty and we are going to keep it going for him and I ask you guys to stick with us through this tough time and continue to support the crew and we will be able to accomplish anything.” – BIGBOY

October 15, 2016

Always cool to see some of these young guns progress over the years. It looks like Louis Trieb has upgraded to a bigger bike (he started out on 16″ when he was 5!) and has been getting more and more bike control. Here’s his latest video from skatepark, trails and street sessions that he has been getting in lately. Louis loves himself some fast plants and it looks like he has done his first grind on a down rail. Check it out!

“It´s been a year since my last edit “Been There – Done That” dropped.
Back then I took part with the edit at the “Bangers Freestyle Film Festival 2015” hosted by the Freedom BMX Magazine.

Also I´m stocked about the fact being the youngest teamrider in the hisrory of Schickeria BMX!
At this point big thank you goes out to Schickeria BMX – schickeria-bmx.de – for for the friendship and the awesome support!!!

Comparing my old edit “Been There – Done That” with the new one possible exlplains the title “Progression”…
The clips for this new edit were filmed during the last 12 months.
Most of the time I was 12 years old, some clips were filmed right after my 13th birthday.
We were out filming all over South-Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
Also there are some clips filmed during our summer vacation in Berlin.
