Mutant Bikes connect over in Japan, Takato Ueda, coming through with a fresh new video filled with clips from street sessions between 2015 and 2016. Takato is one of few riders that runs brakes and a freecoaster and we’re stoked on that. Plenty of grinds, manuals, style and buttery smooth lines in this one! Highly suggest you give this BMX video a watch! Enjoy!

Top BMX Pros In Moscow

October 17, 2016

Some of you might recall a little while back there was supposed to be a big BMX contest in Moscow, Russia, but last minute the contest got cancelled because it ran out of money… After all the Pros and riders had flown over for the contest. It’s a pretty crazy story we have heard a few different versions of, so we’re not really sure what happened, but it sounds like it was a mess. Regardless, everyone tried to make the best of the situation and here’s a video the BMXASHKA crew made from the event for you to get a look at, along with some interviews with a few of the riders that came out. So crazy how they built up all the ramps and dirt jumps and they really didn’t get used.

“Honestly we did not really want to remind you guys about the fail our BMX scene went through a while ago, but there was some interviews filmed with some of the coolest pro-riders, and riding was filmed so we decided to still show you guys this video.

Sure it’s a bummer for us, but you guys know that Russia held one of the coolest events ever (check the end of the video) and we are sure there will be more.

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.

A fast rolling, low resistance tire tread pattern with grooves for traction while turning and riding on everything from streets to ramp and more.

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.

“http://road2recovery.com/cause-view/scotty-cranmer/

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.

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
