Steven Hamilton Bike Check
Federal posted up this above photo, and a sketchy cell phone photo of his bike. Normally, I wouldn’t bother posting something like this. But after my life changing experience of meeting Mr. Hamilton last summer, I can fully understand why this counts. Hit the Federal site to check out his bike.

“The new Drop fork is based around the classic offset and length of the 20/20 fork, it also retains the same material and heat treatment spec however shape of the dropout and the bottom of the fork leg have both been redesigned to create a stronger and cleaner looking junction with better clearance.

Ty Morrow Update
It sounds like Ty is all clear and doing a lot better. Close call for sure. Here’s an update from Federal…
“JJ has been in touch and the update looks good. All Ty’s MRI/cat/head scans all came back clear, and the bottom line is the docs are happy and he is doing good. Ty is a warrior and he’s stable in the hospital, our thoughts continue to be with him. Our Best Wishes and thoughts also go out to Mark Love who has his ACL surgery today – Good Luck with the surgery today Mag !” – Federal
Federal – Simpel Session
I won’t lie, I’m kind of disappointed it took this long for Federal to drop footage from Simpel Session… However, I’ll let it slide since it’s Ty Morrow, Dan Lacey and Bruno Hoffmann footage.

Federal – Loz Taylor
Federal‘s flow rider Loz Taylor dropped a new edit. I can’t help but think about how the song in this edit is on the CD Steven Hamilton gave us on the Sun Ringle America trip.
