Kim Lea Müller On Colony BMX

July 19, 2023

Kim Lea Müller is now doing it for Colony BMX!

Here’s some sponsor news for you. Colony BMX have added Kim Lea Müller to their team! We aren’t too familiar with Kim, but if Clint Millar added her to the squad, you know she’s doing something right! Check out a few words and expect to see more of Kim in the future!

“Ever since meeting Kim Lea Müller through Dean Florian, something just clicked. She is obviously one of the best up and coming female BMX riders out there. Her progression, style and all while having a smile on her face while doing so, is refreshing.
But more importantly, she is a great person to hang out with and be around. I’d have no issue with spending a week on a road trip with her and the team.
It’s with great pleasure, that we welcome Kim to the Colony family.
Welcome to the team Kim!” – Clint Millar

Pat Casey – As Long As I Can

July 18, 2023

Footage from before Pat Casey’s passing continues to pop up!

BMX lost Pat Casey to a dirt bike accident on June 6th, and we’re still being surprised with footage from his sessions prior to it. Here’s a video he filmed during a trip to the Czech Republic to ride a contest in Prague. Although he wasn’t trying to film a full edit during his visit, he ended up with so much amazing footage that this 5 minute video packed with bangers from trails to ramps and street spots happened. It goes to show how much work he was putting in. This is one of those videos you cannot pass up. Take a look.

“Man, writing anything about Pat is hard… And honestly, I don’t even know what to write. As the video intro says, Pat went out to FISE Montpellier where he took a pretty hard slam when someone left their wheel over the deck. So, he ended up chilling for a few days (with his family) in Paris before heading to the Czech Republic to ride the “Coolife Fest” event. Pat being pat, he met up with a filmer (or two?) and managed to wreck house at spots of all kinds. Pat Casey forever and ever.

Stuart Gibson built up his dream BMX build!

There’s something about building up a completely new bike that is so nice. Stuart Gibson sent over this new video he made from the dream setup he just built himself. This is a little bit of a unique look at the build process from start to finish. As expected, the bike turned out so good. Take a look!

“Introducing my new personal BMX bike.. a Colony BMX Sweet Tooth frame with a lot of Profile Racing and Odyssey BMX parts. Almost identical to my previous bike build with lots of titanium but a few subtle changes. I am very happy with the result. Built in a skatepark workshop & inspired by Gee Milner videos. Big thank you to Halux Visions for helping me with the camera work on this.” – Stuart Gibson
