Madera – Mike Hinkens and the C4 Hub Guard

August 9, 2015

Do you run Madera or Profile Racing front hubs, but you want a hub guard that is plastic? Well, Madera have just released their new C4 plastic hub guard that fits Madera’s Pilot front hub and Profile Racing’s Mini, elite and Totem front hubs. This guard is made from CNC Machined Delrin right here in the United States and simply slides onto your hub over your cones. You do need to be running the new cones that Profile and Madera use with knurling for it to fit properly though!

The C4 Hub Guard is available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Madera worldwide for around $14.99. You can also pick up the hub guard direct from the Profile Racing webstore for $16.99. The cone washer with the knurling is available for $6.50. Check out photos below!

August 8, 2015

Empire BMX dropped a trailer for a full-length video featuring some of the younger crew coming up in Texas called “Diadem”!

Hit play and if you’re in the Austin, Texas area plan on checking the premiere next Sunday!

““Diadem” = The next generation of central Texas BMXers, in search of a new destiny beyond their backyards, taking you back to when the only question was: “what nonsense can we get into today?”

Filmed/ Edited Jeremie Infelise

Austin/Central TX has a long and rich history of BMX. When presented with their positive attitudes and 100% commitment to shredding any and all forms of terrain, the decision to facilitate a full-length DVD documentation of the next generation’s adventures was a no-brainer for us. These young guns are the embodiment of what we think is best about BMX: searching for dope spots, putting tires, pegs, and pedals on obstacles in creative and fun ways, and most importantly, doing it all with a smile on your face with your crew. Shouts to Cabbage Crew, Gnarnia BMX, and Jeremie Infelise for making it all happen!
Video premiere: Sunday August 16 at 9pm behind Empire BMX. Free popcorn for all | BYOB” – EMPIRE BMX
