Josh Dove On Flybikes

Here’s some sponsor news for you on this Friday! Josh Dove has officially joined the Flybikes Pro team! IT was announced about a month back that Josh had parted ways with his longtime sponsor Colony, and during that time he found what appears to be a perfect match. Josh has been on absolute fire for the past couple years as an up and coming young gun, and this past summer really opened up a lot of eyes during the Vans BMX pro Cup series. Josh’s style of riding fits real good with the Flybikes team, so we’re stoked to see this and what comes from this in the future!

“Ever since we first saw Josh Dove’s riding, we were blown away with his talent and style. Over the the last year, we had the chance to hang out with him and become good friends, especially with Sergio, loving his riding and attitude off the bike as well. Josh has been doing his own thing over the last month and during this time, things evolved naturally and Josh is now officially apart of the Flybikes family. We can’t be more stoked about this! Good times ahead for sure!” – Flybikes

Flybikes – Unexpected Indoor Session

Leave a Comment

This past summer most of the Flybikes team got together at their warehouse in Spain to spend some time cruising the local parks and getting some work done designing new products for the future. They caught a few days of sunshine, then the rain hit and they decided to convert the warehouse into their own indoor park! This video is a mix of footage from the nice days and the rainy days, and despite not the best weather, this video turned out real good!

Also, it’s cool to see the Coastin ramp get put to good use again! Check out How-To Build the Coastin’ Ramp if you’re interested!

“This past August after most of the team spent the weekend at the annual O Marisquiño contest in Vigo, Spain, we decided to have the team at our warehouse to spend some time working on new products and to have some fun on our bikes at some of the amazing local parks! We had a few good days of sunshine, then the rain started and we unexpectedly had to get creative to keep the fun going. We turned our warehouse into a spot to ride with ramps and ledges to ride! Here’s what Sergio Layos, Courage Adams, Teresa Azcoaga, Ruben Alcantara, Sem Kok and Pitu got into during the visit! Unfortunately Devon Smillie and Larry Edgar weren’t able to be here with us due to scheduling!

Despite a little rain, we still managed to have a great time! Enjoy!

Whenever you see Courage Adams or Devon Smillie‘s name pop up, you know you’re going to see something amazing. When you see them both in a video together in a city like Barcelona, you know you’re in for some serious FIRE. Flybikes recently sent Courage and Devon on a 6 day trip to Barcelona where they went to work stacking banger after banger. These two never disappoint, and this one will definitely have you hitting replay!

“When you take two street riders like Devon Smillie and Couage Adams to a city with as many street spots as Barcelona, Spain has to offer, the possibilities are endless. Between Devon’s technical combos and Courage’s incredible balance and bike control, these two made the most of their time in BCN and came away with this amazing new video. Enjoy!

Sneak Peek: Flybikes – Magneto Front Hub

Leave a Comment

A few months back we got aSneak Peek Look Inside The Flybikes Magneto Cassette Hub that has been in the works for about a decade now. Today the have released a little more info about when the hub will be available, along with the news that Flybikes will also have a new matching Magneto front hub and hub guards to go along with the Magneto Cassette! Their original goal was to have the hub available this summer, but it sounds like a few production delays has set it back to October. Either way, the Magneto Front Hub was a surprise since they haven’t mentioned that at all until now. The hub is based off the original Flybikes Classic front hub with some refinements and added touches to make it match the cassette. Either way, this hubset looks amazing!

“We have been getting a ton of emails and messages asking when the Magneto Cassette Hub will be available, and we are super close! Since these are being made in Europe from a smaller manufacturer, we’ve had a few delays and will have the hub ready to go early October.
We are also excited to let you know that we will be releasing a matching Magneto Front Hub to go with the Cassette and new plastic hub guards that will be available (not pictured) for front and back, drive and non-drive side.
We are very excited to get the Magneto Hubs out and we appreciate your patience! Good things come with time and this has been a very long journey that is almost complete!

If you are a shop or distributor that carries Flybikes and want to get a pre-order in, please get ahold of us today for full details!!”

Sem Kok For Flybikes

Leave a Comment

When it comes to BMX there are only a handful of riders that fully commit and find a way to travel non-stop and crush it on absolutely everything they come across. Sem Kok‘s name has been popping up more and more the past year or two, and it’s pretty amazing to see him crushing it all over from the Vans BMX Pro Cup to the random clips he’s posting on Instagram from his trips all over the place. Here’s a fresh video for Flybikes giving us a look at what he’s been getting into from parks to street spots and trails during his trips all over as of late. If you’re looking for speed and style, this is the BMX video for you!

“Since joining the Flybikes family, Sem Kok has been traveling the world non-stop hitting up contests and riding amazing spots along the way. Here’s a video filled with clips from sessions he got in at cement parks, backyard ramps, street spots and trails from all over Europe to Adam LZ’s backyard ramps in Florida and more! Sem brings amazing style to everything he touches and this is an amazing watch from start to finish!
