Matt Comeau – Maple Of My Eye

We haven’t seen Matt Comeau‘s name pop up much the past few years, and now we now why! He’s been slowly stacking clips for this new edit that is packed with a ton of really good clips. This has a little bit of everything from a big smith grind off a roof to smaller jibby type clips, making for a real good watch. Take a look!

“Fiend holds their cards close to their chest as far as videos and riders go and here we have a prime example of why with their Canada AM rider from Halifax Canada, Matt Comeau. You might not have heard of him but he comes in with a bang, with lining up tight transitions, super tech combos, things that seem very nbd, this is definitely one to watch.” – DIG

“This is Matt’s first release since getting on Fiend and only web video since we released BUSINESS II. We’ve been working on this since Spring 2017, a long time for a web video but we wanted to try and be selective with the clips we used so we could release something great. It was filmed all over the Maritimes of Canada, Montreal, Barcelona and New York City.” – Ian Fleming

Is it time for a new sprocket? Looking for something that has a guard, but you want the option to run a regular sprocket, too? Fiend have released the JJ Palmere guard sprocket for you guys to check out. This sprocket is made from 6mm thick CNC machined 6061 aluminum with center aligned teeth and a laser etched logo. The sprocket has a unique double triangle design with plenty of cut outs to help reduce weight. Along with that comes a replaceable injection molded, high impact nylon Havoc Guard that is held in place by 4 bolts, giving you extra protection if you’re putting a lot of work in on rails and ledges.

The Palmere Guard Sprocket comes in Black, Matte Red and Tumbled Aluminum with a black guard for $49.99 through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Fiend worldwide now. You can also pick up replacement guards for $11.99 if you burn through it.

Raul Jula gets down on the streets of Barcelona…

The winter has been a long, rough one for Fiend‘s connect, Raul Jula over in the Czech Republic, so he made his way to Barcelona, Spain to soak up the sun and endless spots thanks to TBB Bike! As you should know by now, Raul is a beast on a bike and he stacked a ton of great clips during his stay. Hit play and check it out!

“Raul is one ambitious guy, who basically follows his instinct and does what he wants to. It’s clear that one of these things is to progress on his bike as much as possible. Because of that he knew he gotta start the season right. And what could be better then spend 2 weeks in sunny Barcelona, when back home is freezing cold?

Garrett Reynolds “Fiending In Sydney”

Red Bull dropped a new video featuring Garrett Reynolds getting down in Sydney with Lewis Mills!

Red Bull just dropped this new banger of a video featuring Garrett Reynolds getting down in Sydney, Australia with Fiend teammate, Lewis Mills! You already know Garrett produced some serious bangers, but you might just be surprised with what Lewis brings to the table. If you weren’t familiar with his riding, you will be a fan of him after this. Either way, both of these guys produced some damn good riding, and Kalvin Kosovich crushed it behind the lens. MUST SEE for sure!

“Go down under with the Fiend team and BMX’s finest street sessions from Sydney, Australia.

“It’s now or never,” Garrett Reynolds said. “We’re almost 10,000 miles away from the US — you might not come back, you don’t know.”

Immediacy and uncertainty greet Reynolds and Fiend team members Lewis Mills and Calvin Kosovich in Sydney. Amid record high temperatures and rainfall, watch “Fiending Sydney” to see the current benchmark for BMX street riding.” – Red Bull
