The other week when Nick DiGeroloma sent through his latest edit from a trip he made back to his home state of Ohio, we got talking about what else was new with him. He mentioned that he was about to build up a brand new bike for the first time in a long time. There’s nothing better than a fresh bike, so I figured we better get to work on a bike check. Now you get to start your week off with a look at one real dialed ride along with some rad riding photos he put in some work for to go with this! Let’s take a closer look!

Fit X Etnies – Ben Lewis Edit

February 11, 2013

As part of the release of the new Etnies X Fit Bike Co. Ben Leiws signature shoe releasing, they’ve dropped this brand new edit. Check out Ben cruising a few different spots then get a closer look at the shoes, t-shirts, long sleeve shirt, hoodie and beanie in this. Definitely digging the line and the riding footage is real good.

“The etnies x Ben Lewis x Fitbikeco shoe collaboration is a dream come true for Ben Lewis. Involved at every level of the process, Ben personally selected the classic etnies RVM for this collaboration along with the navy and red colors that perfectly match his Fit bike and the custom graphics featured on the footbeds and outer heel. As Ben’s favorite etnies style, the RVM’s midtop supports and protects his ankles while the sole is nice and grippy without sacrificing the flexibility needed when riding.” – Ride BMX

Alex “Frenchie” Coumaileau is now doing it for Primary Threads. Check out this welcome edit from a lights out session inside some building that has a perfect setup, haha.

“Queensland’s Alex Coumaileau AKA Frenchie a rad dude bringing some French flavour to BMX and the Sunshine Coast. He is a down right shredder but more importantly a really rad dude. We are so stoked Frenchie will be helping us spread the word up his way representing Primary!
He linked up one night with his mate Tristan ‘Tritto’ Montagu and lit up a nice ledge spot in order to film a welcome edit. They filmed a bunch of rad lines and put together this quick but awesome edit enjoy!

Michael Berran sent over a link to his new video series he’s calling Hive5. Basically, it’ll be a monthly recap of what he did with his life each month. This first video gives you a look at all of the different things he did in January. Given you probably won’t understand a word he’s saying like me, I’m pretty sure it’ll still make you jealous since he’s clearly having more fun than all of us, haha. Check it out.

“I would like to introduce you my new and first video diary called Hive 5. Project includes what I’ve been doing for the last month. It will contains not just riding, new tricks, but things like motocross, megaramp, jump from plane, drifting, gun shooting, parties, celebrities, high-fives and many more… Hope you will like it.”

Product: Fly – Manual Brake Set

February 11, 2013

Fly Bikes BMX Brakes

This is pretty rad, Fly Bikes now offer a brake kit that includes brakes, a brake cable, pads and a brake lever that is based off their Clasico design with a lower price tag. You can read more about the kit below, then hit this link to get a closer look at each piece of the kit.

“Another new product for 2013 is our “Manual” brake set. The complete set includes brake, pads, cable and lever. We’ve used the proven design of our earlier “Clasico” brake and lever to produce a complete brake package where you benefit from the same amazing quality, features and braking power, but now without the inflated price tag. By eliminating the CNC process, not only did we produce this complete brake set much cheaper, but it also has the benefit of having rounded, stylized more finger friendly edges ……… Its a difference you can feel!!”
