“Check out the latest video from Subrosa rider Jiri Blabol to promote his new signature MR1 guest colorway which is available worldwide now!

Jiri has been killing it since he was added to the team way back in 2015, and has repped Subrosa hard since day one, so we wanted him to have a signature colorway of a Subrosa Frame.

Jiri Blabol loves a lot of things like girls, ice cream, his dogs, candy, and tattoos, but there are 2 things he couldn’t survive without and they are his car and his bike. You’ve probably seen his beloved BMW E92 on his Instagram, and we did too. As soon as he got it wrapped we got to work mocking matching artwork onto the MR1 since that is what Jiri chooses to ride.

We grabbed a ton of photos, and Jason got to work recreating all the details of the Red to Black transition down the ? Jiri rocks on his fender.

Combining this look with the already badass Matt Ray signature MR1 frames makes for an amazing limited edition.

The Jiri Fade MR1 is available at Subrosa Dealers and https://sparkysbrands.com

S&M – Mike Attewell . EXE

November 23, 2020

S&M Bikes have released some fresh footage from Mike Attewell going to work on street spots. Mike cooked up a bunch of lines and combos filled with grinds, manuals, x-up rides and more. Take a look!

“About a month ago Myself and Mike thought it would be fun to make a little video, and in the process try something different. Taking advantage of the small collection of cameras I’ve amassed over the years, I brought a couple of brackets and a box of nuts and bolts and set about fixing my old TRV-16e next to my new(ish) NEX-7. Capturing each clip simultaneously onto a tape and SD card came with its difficulty’s but thanks to Mike’s patience we got what I think is a pretty cool video! Thanks to S&M bikes and 4down distribution for the help getting it out!” – Archie Kenward
