Subrosa Bringing Back The Double Top Tube?

February 20, 2016

Here’s a little something we caught a look at when Kyle Hart posted up this shot of his current Subrosa setup that he’s running with a couple different prototype pieces on Twitter. If you look at the top tube, you might notice that the tubing is very narrow, which leads us to believe (we haven’t got an actual confirmation), that Subrosa are looking to bring back the double top tube once again. Over the years, Subrosa have offered the double top tube on their Double Top Tube Pandora frame, then a 24″ version, and even a Flatland specific version, but it hasn’t been a part of their line up for a little while now. Kyle used the #Trillicus hashtag with the photo, which leads us to believe it will be a double top tube version of the latest Hoang Tran signature Villicus frame. You can see the double top tube in the shadow of the bike above. We have also updated this post with a few more photos below!

We’ll let you know when we find out more!

Jesús Sánchez 2016 Video

February 20, 2016

It’s crazy how good the kids out there are getting. They’re progressing so fast. Here’s a BMX video we came across of Jesus Sanchez from Spain who is 15 years old and has only been riding for about 2 years. Jesus has barspins and tailwhips on lock, and knows all about mixing the tricks into different lines filled with manuals, grinds and freecoaster action. Real solid video for sure!

February 20, 2016

The Daily Grind BMX Shop DVD “Totally Stoked To The Max About It” wouldn’t be complete without a section from the owner, Chuck Goldy! Here’s his section that’s loaded with some real solid riding from a ton of different street spots. Chuck brings a good mix of tricks with a bit of an old school vibe to it. Good watch for sure.

Chillemall Jam 2016 Video

February 19, 2016

The other weekend Killemall Distribution up in Canada threw their annual trails jam at the trails under the overpass in Queensborough, British Columbia! Based off the BMX video above, it’s safe to say they had a real solid turn out, good weather and some dialed jumps to ride all day long. Hit the play button to check out some of the highlights from the riding that went down! This will leave you wishing you could have been there… Plus, it was sponsored by Cariboo beer, so you know there wasn’t a shortage in beer there, haha.

Sneak Peek: Shadow Conspiracy – Tire Colors

February 19, 2016

Are you starting to look for some new tires? You’re in luck because next month The Shadow Conspiracy will be introducing three new color options to their line up. Their Valor tire will come in a dark green with grey sideways, the Simone Barraco signature Strada Nuova tire will come in this new brown with grey sidewall and then finally, their all new Contender Welterweight tire will be coming in blue with black sidewalls. Not sure if these colors are specific to each tire, or if they will be available across the board, but we’re leaning toward specific to each tire. If you like what you’re seeing, expect BMX shops and mail-orders that carry The Shadow Conspiracy to have them in stock in March!

Scotty Cranmer VS Matty Cranmer – Game of B-I-KE

February 19, 2016

It’s that time again… Scotty Cranmer and Matty Cranmer are back at it with another game of B-I-K-E! As you might recall from the Game of B-I-K-E on a Subrosa Street Rail they did a little while back, things get pretty heated between these two. So, when you drop them on a ramp like the Hyper Compound, you better believe things get interesting. Take a look!

“Me and my little brother @MATTYCRANMER decided to play a game of bike at the best backyard set up ever “The Hyper Compound” We drove the GT-R over there and immediately, Matty was in a bad mood.. He was moping around and was being such a downer that Idecided to make a “Sad Matty” hghlight reel! That made him go from sad to nasty! In the game of Bike Matty talked a ton of trash but was he able to back it up???”
