It looks like Federal Bikes will be adding some more rubber to their line for 2016. Currently, Federal Bikes do not offer a tire, but that’s about to change in March when their new Response tire hits BMX shops and mail-orders worldwide. These tires will be available in black, gum and orange (possibly more colors) with a 2.30″ size. This tire features a smooth center tread and an aggressive grooved side which looks like it will offer plenty of grab while turning on the streets. No word on if there will be other sizes available, but Federal did mention that the 2.30″ version measures in at 2.40″ on their Stance XL Rim which features a 40mm width versus the traditional 34-36mm found on most BMX rims, allowing the tire to sit wider.
Expect more details closer to their release in about 3 or so months!
Is it time for a new BMX Sprocket? We just spotted a shot on the Strictly BMX Instagram of the new Federal Bikes BBS Sprocket that is CNC machined from 4.5mm thick 4130 heat-treated chromoly with a unique look to match the popular BBS automotive wheels and a 24mm bore. The BBS sprocket is available in 25 and 28 tooth versions for bolt drive and 25-tooth for spline drive with 19mm and 22mm adaptors included for the bolt drive version and black for the only color as of right now.

BMX Avenue just released this new BMX video featuring Diogo Santos going to work on spots around Montpellier, France for Federal Bikes! As always, Diogo cooks up some excellent riding on a bunch of unique spots. It’s also good to see him brining brakes back into the mix. That last clip was some classic Kachinsky! Enjoy!
The ABQ DNV crew just sent through this fresh video from Federal Bikes‘ connect here in the U.S, Ryan Pipkin, going to work on street spots around Albuquerque! This is loaded with some great riding, rad spots and clean film work. Enjoy!
“Ryan has been an ABQ killer for sometime now. This video showcases his skills around town while paying to homage to some old ABQ spots and past killers. He has a hook up with Federal and Stacked BMX as well so we hope for nothing but good things from this. Here are some words from one of his Filmers/Friends in ABQ.
“Ryan is a very motivated influential rider out in abq he pushes himself to learn new tricks everyday I recall how he used to tell me when he first started off everyone said he’d never get any where while riding a bike, the type of person Ryan is this motivated him to prove everyone wrong and has done so. He never has expectations for what happens he just goes and has fun. This video is just the beginning and a little teaser for what Ryan really has in him keep an eye out for his future videos for he is bound to blow your mind. This video was very fun to go film almost every day and to just continue to see how Ryan progresses. Hope everyone enjoys this as much as we enjoyed filming it!” – Hunter Lodwick
‘We started getting clips for Ryan’s video back before everyone broke their New Years resolutions. However, spring in Albuquerque is windy, and unpredictable. I think it even snowed once in May if I remember correctly. But the sun came out, we were back at it. Since Ryan is the type of the riders that can get something done at any spot. We kinda just had to pedal around, the clips gradually filled the SD card, and the completed video happen naturally. Ryan has a come a long way since I met him at my local park wearing red pants, and a purple shirt that happen to match his terrible purple paint job on his red line with bent forks. I feel like the kid gets better every day and I’m exited to see where he goes from here.” – Matt Gutierrez
