Cult – Dakota Roche 1″ OD Bar & Stem

Leave a Comment

It looks like your options for the larger 1″ oversized bars and stems have grown. Wethepeople and BSD have offered the size for about two years now, but it really hasn’t caught on too much. It looks like Cult have decided to give it a shot and have released their new Dakota Roche signature 1″OD Dak Bars and Dak Stem for you to check out. Above is a short promo filled with some heavy clips from Dak you won’t want to miss and below is specs and details on both items. Just remember, if you decide to make the switch to the 1″ OD size, you’ll need BOTH bars and a stem!

First off, let’s explain the size… The traditional BMX bars and stem size works well, but with the way BMX riders have progressed and been sending it on bigger and gnarlier setups (IE: Dak’s video above), the larger diameter gives you increased strength and more stem grab to prevent breaking and resist slipping. This is definitely ideal for the crazier riders out there that have had issues with breaking bars.

DAKOTA ROCHE SIGNATURE DAK 1″ OD STEM

The Dakota Roche signature DAK 1″ OD stem is made from CNC machined 6061 aluminum with a 51mm reach and 32mm rise. The stem has the larger 1″ diameter for clamping with beveled edges, a rounded back, solid chromoly bolts and a recessed top for a flush fork cap. The body of the stem also has an engraved Dak logo. Available in Black only for $64.99 through Cult dealers worldwide and online.

DAKOTA ROCHE SIGNATURE DAK 1″ OD BARS

The Dakota Roche signature Dak bars in the 1″ OD size are made from 100% heat-treated and butted chromoly tubing with a 28″ width, 11-degrees of backsweep and 2-degrees of upswpeep. The bars feature that larger 1″ diameter tubing where the stem clamps, then tapers down to the standard size so they will feel like traditional bars. There’s cult lines on the ends to help trim the bars down if you need to as well.

The Dak 1″ OD bars come in Black and Chrome color with 8.85″ and 9.5″ rise options for $64.99 through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Cult worldwide.

Reminder: You need BOTH a 1″ OD stem and 1″ OD bars. You can’t take your existing bars or stem and match them with the larger size, unless you already have a WTP or BSD stem or bars with that same size.

CULT – NEW GOODS 2019

Cult coming through with another banger of a mixtape…

Here’s one that dropped last week before the site got fired back up, but it’s too good not to get posted up. Cult released this new promo giving you a glimpse into their new line of goods, but it’s primarily just a ton of dialed clips from Dakota Roche, Sean Ricany, Chase DeHart and Andrew Castaneda. Add in that Veesh was behind the lens, and you know this is too damn good to pass up! Take a look!

Vans UNFILTERED – California feat. Dakota Roche & Dan Lacey

2 Comments

Dakota Roche and Dan Lacey team up in California for the latest Vans UNFILTERED video!

Today is a good day! Vans just dropped their latest Unfiltered video, and it’s a BANGER. This time around Dan Lacey made the trip over to California to meet up with Dakota Roche to go to work on a bunch of dialed spots with filmer Rich Forne. As You can imagine with a trifecta like this, everything about the video is on point from the riding to the spots and film work. If you aren’t watching this one, you’re completely blowing it!

“The UNFILTERED series lands in California, on its fourth continent in as many episodes.

The power duo of Dakota Roche and Dan Lacey raided through California’s Central Coast line, on a stark contrast to the desert landscapes of the UAE in episode three. In typical “for the search” fashion, Dakota and Dan missioned for days to find spots, but also manufacture their own between Santa Barbara and Santa Cruz.” – Vans
