Far East Cycles – How A BMX Frame Is Made

July 6, 2016

If you love seeing how things are made, this is the video for you. This video gives you some insight and a behind the scenes look at just how Far East Cycles over in China make their flatland frames. Although they run things over in China, it’s similar to FBM and S&M who run things out of their own warehouse, versus shipping it off to a massive factory that makes more than just bikes. Hit play and check it all out. Real good watch and interesting to see the process, equipment they use and more.

“Far East Cycles is a Chinese made and designed BMX Flatland Brand, the owner and head manager at the FEC factory is WeiChangShao. ChangShao shows us the process of building a frame, why and how he does what he does. His brand was built over time hand in hand with Jean William Prévost and will now be distributed at select companies throughout the world. Fareast now sponsors riders from 4 countries and is moving forwards with the development of innovative and cost effective products for the benefit of flatlanders and riders around the planet.
To support FEC, you can go and like the facebook page ”Far East Cycles” and follow them on instagram.” – IGI BMX

Sneak Peek: Haro – Tyler Fernengel Signature Frame

June 22, 2016

It looks like Chad Kerley isn’t the only one getting a signature frame from Haro! Here’s a look at Tyler Fernengel‘s current setup with a prototype of his first, very well deserved signature frame from Haro!

There isn’t word on the name of the frame, but Tyler did release a few details. The frame will be made from 4130 chromoly with a 75-degree head tube angle, 71-degree seat tube angle, 9″ standover height, 11.5″ bottom bracket height and 13.5″ chainstay length. It will feature a hydro formed top tube and down tube and investment cast dropouts with built in chain tensioners. It also appears, based off the photo, to have a hour glass head tube, an integrated seat post clamp and externally butted down tube. Overall, it looks like it’s going to be a real clean frame.

The frame will be available in 20.8″ and 21″ top tube lengths as well.

If you’re hoping to get your hands on this frame, you will have to wait a few months because it sounds like it won’t be available until closer to Christmas time in December. We’ll keep you posted when we hear more!
