Sneak Peek: Stereo Bike Co. – Supernova Frame Colorway

January 9, 2016

We’ve seen a lot of space themed colorways pop up over the course of the past year from Celestial Colorway parts with the addition of their Celestial Protocol HT Cranks and Odyssey’s Galaxy themed seats and pedals, so we weren’t too surprised to see some other brands playing around with it! We spotted on Instagram that Stereo Bike Co. are playing around with the “Supernova” colorway on a frame. This is just a prototype sample and they didn’t specify if it will end up going into production or really too many other details… But it looks pretty wild!

What do you think? Would you get one if the geometry / size / price was right?

Demolition Parts Now Offering Lifetime Warranty On Cranks

January 9, 2016

Warranties in BMX are always welcoming. What’s better than having something you buy covered incase it breaks? Unfortunately it’s hard for brands to offer a lifetime warranty that goes toward damage caused directly from riding on all products. If they did that, it would probably put everyone out of business. But, there are products out there that have proven strong enough that a brand is willing to offer that kind of warranty on their products without fear of losses caused by it. Today, Demolition Parts have added their Dennis Enarson signature Rig Cranks and their long standing Revolt cranks to the list of lifetime warranties that cover breaking and cracks. Get the full details below!

“Cranks are always that one bicycle component that every bmx rider likes to switch out or be on the lookout for in terms of cracks or stress on the tubes due to how much pressure is constantly being pounded on em. It’s also what every bmx company is always concerned with and is constantly trying to perfect. Over the last few years with our Revolt cranks, and now with Dennis Enarson’s signature RIG cranks, we’ve come to the conclusion that these two cranks have been proven and tested (over time) to withstand an insane amount of abuse, and to show you how much we believe in both cranks, we are now offering a lifetime warranty* against breaks/ cracks on the arms and spindles. We think this will give you confidence and peace of mind in knowing that we back our cranks 110%. *Offer is only valid for original purchaser.”

Behind The Scenes of “Hard Times” – Part One

January 8, 2016

Ryan Howard has decided to start uploading behind the scenes footage he collected while filming for The Daily Grind‘s “Hard Times” video! This first one gives us a little look at a trip to Detroit that Zack Gerber took to Detroit to film for the video. This starts out pretty laid back, but then we get a look at an insane double peg to front flip on an up rail that Zack had a hell of a battle with. Check it!

Watch Zack’s full “Hard Times” DVD section here!

“This is the first in a series of behind the scenes videos from the making of hardtimes. After each filming trip I would compile all the raw footage into a timeline to keep the team motivated and you show everyone their footage.
This is a trip to Detroit that zack and myself took in May of 2014. The things zack pulls are wild but the ideas that don’t quite come true are even more insane. Shout out to fiend forks for exploding.”
