December 13, 2015

It’s always awesome watching a BMX video from a rider that can ride absolutely anything they come across. That’s exactly what this new Aaron Simone video is! Watch as he crushes everything from trails, to skateparks and street spots in this. Great style, good mix of tricks, a lot of speed and some serious balls. Check it out!

“Aaron and I have been taking trains and catching rides all over Connecticut all year filming for this video. Over coming injuries and numerous lost tapes, this is what he came through with. He’s very pleased with the final product, Let him know what you think!

Hoffman Bikes and the Gack Hubs

December 13, 2015

Over the past few weeks, Hoffman Bikes have been building up to their 25 year anniversary where they have been doing some interesting posts on their website about past team riders, products and really the brand as a whole. One post in particular that they just released caught our eye and will be one of those things that you BMX history nerds will love to see. Hoffman Bikes released a little write up and a bunch of photos of their Gack Hubs that were released in 1994 that featured the first 14mm axles. At this time, 3/8″ axles were standard on front and rear wheels and, needless to say, the increasing level of ramp and street riding was proving too heavy for them. Mat Hoffman and Kris Gack (who later went on to start his own brand “Gack“) worked together to develop the first BMX hubs that had 14mm axles that really changed the way BMX hubs and bikes were able to withstand the abusive riding.

There’s a great write up, along with a ton of awesome photos of the original designs, prototypes and final samples that you can check out over on the Hoffman Bikes website right here — 14mm Gack Hubs
