Insight: Standard Byke Co. with Rick Moliterno
When you think of legendary BMX brands, there are always a few that instantly come to mind and there’s no doubt that Standard Byke Co. is one of them! We recently stopped by their warehouse in Davenport, Iowa to learn a little bit more about the brand that was established by Rick Moliterno in 1991 where they have been making high quality frames and products right here in America, along with doing in-house production of their frames and products since 2007. We get a good history lesson from Rick, a look at their warehouse, some insight into their production and of course some riding clips from the man himself! This is BMX.

Ride with Harry Main – Coyote Contest Winner
This is pretty rad. Harry Main threw a little Instagram contest for one of his fans to get a private session in with him. Young Paul Friel won the contest and, even though Harry couldn’t ride, came through to spend the day with him riding and hanging out. Turns out Paul is a complete SHREDDER and found himself a spot on the Coyote team after impressing Harry. Talk about an opportunity! Hopefully we see more of this young gun in the near future!
“Coyote ran an Instagram contest with the winner getting the opportunity to come down to Rampworx Skatepark for a private session with Harry Main. Harry was injured, so we asked Paul if he wanted to ride with Harry at a later date but he wanted to come down and chill with Harry and the Coyote team.”
