Fly Bikes have been dropping some sneak previews of their 2016 product range that will be dropping later this year. We got a look at their Tractor XL and Tractor Sprockets and the Fly Bikes X Etnies Tripod seat. Now we get a good look at their new Geo team frame that will be dropping later this year. There wasn’t much detail given, but based off the photos we’re seeing it looks like they have decided to go with gussets on the top and down tubes, a seat stay that some of you older guys might recognize from the Three Amigos frame, traditional removable brake mounts versus the Easy Brake System they use on their frames now and chain tensioners that run through the drop out. You can get a good look at the seat stay and drop outs after the jump!
DIG X Fly Bikes – Surfing with Sergio Layos
DIG just released this fresh video featuring Fly Bikes‘ Sergio Layos catching a massive cement wave at the far southern end of France near the Spain border. Sergio brings his signature style to this massive quarter pipe with some crazy tire slides and huge airs. This spot looks incredibly fun to ride! Check it out!
“”It was right after a BSD trip with Luc Legrand that I met up with Vince Perraud and Sergio Layos on the big transitions of the Ocean Museum of Biarritz (aka The Surf Museum). This spot, between the Pyrenees mountains and the Atlantic Ocean is both beautiful and scary; the ground is like a rough pavement and you need to pedal like a madman to catch any air at all. I had already seen Max Bonfil and Alex Valentino doing some high airs on this but i have to say that Sergio was pretty unbelievable…” – Antoine Sabourin

Sneak Peek: Fly Bikes – Tractor Sprocket
Last week we got a look at the Tractor XL sprocket that has a 15mm thickness in the middle that tapers to 6mm at the teeth. Now today, Fly Bikes have given us a look at their Tractor sprocket that features the traditional 6mm thickness throughout! This will be out later this year. More details below!
“Here’s a full look at our new Tractor sprocket that will be available later year! This sprocket is CNC machined from 7075 alloy and uses the same design as our new Tractor XL sprocket, but is 6mm thick all across like a traditional sprocket. The Tractor sprocket will be available in 25 tooth (2.6 oz.) and 28 tooth (3.4 oz.) sizes with colors of black, Misty silver and one more special colorway we will be giving you a look at in the coming weeks!
This sprocket, along with our full range of 2016 complete bikes, frames and parts, will be available later this year through shops and mail-orders that carry Flybikes worldwide!”
Sneak Peek: Fly Bikes – Tractor XL Sprocket
Fly Bikes have been starting to drop previews of their 2016 product line online for us to get excited about. Today, they released a look at their all new Tractor XL sprocket that is designed to remove the need for spacers between the sprocket and bottom bracket. Full details below!
“Here’s a sneak peek look at a brand new product that we will be offering in our 2016 line that will be available later this year. The Tractor XL sprocket is made from 6061 alloy with a unique design that has a 16mm thickness in the middle, which eliminates the need for a spacer between the sprocket and bottom bracket, that tapers to 6mm thick at the teeth. The weight of the sprocket is comparable to traditional sprockets of the same gearing, but 10 times the strength. The Tractor XL sprocket will be available with a 24mm bore for the spindle, with 19mm and 22mm spindle adaptors included, sizes of 25 tooth (4 oz. / 116 grams) and 28 tooth (4.7 oz. / 134 grams) with colors of black, white and one other special colorway that we will be announcing later! ”
We’re assuming this BMX sprocket will be available around September or October. We’re curious as to what else they have been cooking up over in Spain!
Ryan Lloyd Bike Check
Fly Bikes dropped a bike check with their Australian connect through Triple Six Distribution, Ryan Lloyd, giving us a closer look at his 2015 Montaña setup that he’s running! There’s even a little custom paint action. Check out the full bike check and a bunch of photos right here! Looks like a dialed BMX bike us!
Sneak Peek: Fly Bikes X Etnies Tripod Seat
It looks like a handful of brands are starting to show off their 2016 products that they will be releasing later this year. Fly Bikes dropped a sneak peek look at their collaboration Tripod seat they’re doing with Etnies that will be available some time around September. Based off the photo, it looks like they have taken inspiration from a shoe with a similar look with the stitching and leather accents. Expect plenty more previews from Fly in the coming weeks since it sounds like they’re going to be releasing a look at a new product every week up until Interbike.
Update: Fly Bikes released a photo of the brown leather version of this seat!
Fly Bikes Visits 360 Bike Shop Barcelona
The Fly Bikes team recently spent some time in Barcelona filming for their next video that we’ll hopefully be seeing soon. During their visit, they hit up 360 Bike Shop to hang out with the locals and grab a session at Marbella skatepark. They put together this rad BMX video giving us a look at what went down. Definitely looks like it was a good day!
“During our recent team trip to Barcelona, Spain, Sergio Layos, Stefan Lantschner, Courage Adams and Joan Balmaña made a stop at 360 Bike Shop to visit with the locals and sign some autographs. Afterwards, everyone made their way to the Marbella Skatepark for a session! Check out highlights from the day in this video featuring riding from the team and some of the locals.
Flybikes would like to thank everyone who came out for the day! We had a great time.

Product: Fly Bikes – Cobra Tube
We don’t talk about tube too often, but we were just reminded about Fly Bikes’ Cobra tube that is pretty awesome. Traditionally, a tube is round, you take your wheel and tire off, slide it on over the rim and you’re good to go. The Cobra tube uses a linear design that eliminates the need to take the wheel off the bike to change it. You simply pull off half of your tire, wrap the tube around the wheel, then lock it together with the little tab and then slide the valve stem through the rim to keep it together. We’ve personally used this tube and did not notice any difference in the feeling of the wheel rolling with the tube in place. It’s definitely a handy tube to have when you’re trying to fix a flat with minimal tools and time.
