Get a look at Tyson Jones-Peni’s signature setup! Yeah, those are disc brakes!
There’s a lot of times a Bike Check will pop up, and they will look super dialed, but there isn’t anything that makes it unique. Well, Tyson Jones-Peni caught our eye with his new video Bike Check from Back Bone BMX! Tyson has been working with Wethepeople and Eclat on a few signature parts, one being his signature Chaos frame. That frame isn’t just some geometry, graphics and colors that Tyson picked, but Tyson managed to get himself DISC BRAKE MOUNTS on his frame. We’re pretty sure this is the first signature frame with disc brakes for a freestyle frame, but we could be wrong. Either way, it’s unique and pretty rad if we may say! Hit play to let Tyson give you the run through!
“Tyson Jones-Peni has been working with @Wethepeople BMX on his signature frame soon after joining the WTP team in 2020.. and it’s finally here, as well as his signature @Eclat BMX Exile seat.
Tyson built it up and took it straight to the park for first laps, then gives his thoughts on his brand new ride.. the Wethepeople Chaos Machine.
Tyson wanted to bring the disc brake feel to his signature frame and Wethepeople made it happen, which he is fairly certain is the first production freestyle frame with a disc mount.. Built for what Tyson likes to ride; the trails and big transition riding.” – Back Bone BMX
Back Bone BMX has released the official video from ACT Jam 2022!
The other weekend the annual ACT Jam went down n Australia, and as always it was an absolute wild one! The crew at Back Bone BMX moved the contest indoors this year to avoid the rain, but it looks like that didn’t keep the party from going off. Check out 8 minutes of highlights with a ton of bangers to check out.
“The ACT Jam has turned into one of the premiere freestyle BMX events in the world! Run by FACT BMX Club in conjunction with Back Bone BMX and Club Back Bone, 2022 saw the ACT Jam dodge the rain and move indoors to two days of next level riding from the world’s most ripping BMXers.
Huge thanks to everyone who rode, attended, helped out and had fun at ACT Jam 2022!

The annual ACT Jam down in Australia went off!
Every year the ACT Jam is 3 days of pure BMX madness down in Australia. Usually they hit 3 different parks and it’s a non-stop party and crazy riding each day. This year Backbone BMX moved it indoors. We’re not sure what happened to change things up, but it sounds like it was due to heavy rains. Either way, they somehow managed to get in inside a warehouse and had a bunch of ramps built up in time for the contest to go off. Here’s a video Colony put together featuring their team at the contest. As expected, these guys crushed it as always. We would imagine there will be more videos coming from the contest soon, so get stoked.
“Watch Chris James, Paterico Fallico, Sam Grace, Ricky Catanzariti, Jayden Fuller, Clint Millar, Max Cvetkovic and Josh Eaton rip it at this years Backbone BMX ACT Jam.
Even with the rain issues Canberra was having the weekend of ACT JAM 2022 the crew from Backbone made it work!

While we’re enjoying the heat and sunshine up here in the northern hemisphere, the crew down in Australia have been dealing with winter. The cooler temps didn’t keep Jonny Mackeller from enjoying some riding time during a trip to Canberra. Check out a mix of trails, ramps and street riding that Johnny got in during his week long visit!
“We had the pleasure of hosting QLDer and Back Bone team rider Jon Mackellar over the first week of winter here in Canberra. Despite it being freezing cold, Jonny brought his longest socks and thickest shorts, as well as his badass riding style. We hit spots throughout Canberra, as well as travelling out to Young to ride Will Kerr’s spot.
