3D Printed BMX Stem / How To 3D Print BMX Parts

August 10, 2017

We’re not crazy about the vlogs, but we are pretty interested in learning new things and this video that Jonny Lee put out is pretty interesting. The other day he showed us the 3D Printed Sprocket he made, now today we get a look at the process it takes to create a BMX part from a 3D printer, using a BMX stem as an example. There are two videos to this. The first explains a little bit about the process that went into the design, then he talks about the different styles of 3D printers that are available. This one is a little hard to follow if you aren’t too tech savy, but it’s pretty interesting. The second shows the final product, a 3D Printed BMX stem, along with a little bit of footage from a session where he puts it to the test. Pretty wild. Take a look and let us know what you think in the comments below!

“After how well the 3D printed sprocket video was received (and after how much fun I had making it) I decided to try something else. I’m 3D printing a stem, and in part one of two videos regarding the stem I go into 3d printing technologies, the process of making the parts, and how I design them in the first place.” – Jonny Lee

3D Printed BMX Sprocket?

August 7, 2017

When 3D Printing started popping up, the idea of creating BMX parts from 3D Printing has always been something people have talked about doing. George French has played around with it for a while now and has done a number of things as prototypes to test out ideas, and we know Harry at Wethepeople and Eclat also does rough prototype samples through 3D printing. Even though it’s doable to create 3D printed parts, the cost of producing it is still too high. In recent years, the price of 3D printers has come down and it has opened things up a bit to a lot more people and it looks like Jonny Lee has decided to start playing around with doing some BMX parts. Here’s a look at his first creation, a 3D printed BMX sprocket that he printed and put on his bike and rode! Take a peek. It sounds like we’ll be seeing more of Jonny’s creations in the near future, so we’ll keep you posted!

“Super happy with this. Today was awesome! Great things are happening, people! Stay tuned for more videos with this sprocket as well as the other 3d printed parts I have planned!” – Jonny Lee
