Stefan Lantschner Bike Check

February 17, 2016

Fly Bikes have released a new Bike Check with Stefan Lantschner giving you a closer look at his current 2016 Montaña setup decked out with Fly Bikes parts from top to bottom. Not only does the bike look amazing, we’re loving the photos, giving us a look at his shop where he’s got other toys like his motorcycles. Stefan builds custom Cafe Racers on the side, so it’s pretty cool to see the two come together (which you can see better in the other photos). You can take a closer look at Stefan’s bike on the Flybikes website — Stefan Lantschner 2016 Bike Check

How BMX Frame Stays Are Bent

February 17, 2016

A video posted by Chris Moeller (@moeller_chris) on Feb 16, 2016 at 1:53pm PST

Two in a row from Chris Moeller this morning! Here we have a look at the seat stay tubing being bent for the Brian Foster frame from Fit Bike Co. at the S&M Bikes warehouse out in California. Another one of those not so crazy videos, but still interesting to see. You would think it would be a fancier machine, but it looks to be pretty much man power, a little machine power and leverage to make it happen. It’s also interesting since this is just one small part of the frame building process. We’re loving these behind the scenes production clips!

How BMX Handlebar Tubing Is Cut

February 17, 2016

A video posted by Chris Moeller (@moeller_chris) on Feb 15, 2016 at 2:43pm PST

Chris Moeller continuing his production footage from inside the S&M Bikes warehouse in California. Although this might not seem like the most exciting process, it’s definitely interesting to see the machine they use to repetitively cut the tubing for the handlebars they make. This machine is cutting tubing for the Charlie Crumlish bars specifically. After this, it’s sent to the tube bender to get the right shape, welded up then passed along to the paint crew. Another fun fact? The last 20″ of the stock they use is too short, so they have to let that go. Any guesses where that tubing goes? Most likely recycled, but you never know, right?
