Ledge Heaven with Madera BMX and Friends

April 11, 2018

The Madera team and some other get a laid back ledge session in…

During a recent trip to California, the Madera team were out filming at a ledge spot with a handful of others that showed up for the good times Here’s a behind the scenes look at what went down during the session on and off the bikes between Erik Elstran, Mike Hinkens, Grant Castelluzzo, Dylan McCauley, Jeff Dowhen, Broc Raiford, Jacob Cable, Mike Stahl, Jordan Godwin and more. This was a pretty productive session, so check out what went down!

“The Madera team spend a Sunday at one of the most ridiculous ledge spots in LA. And in typical SoCal fashion, you never who else may end up at the session—this time around guests include Jordan Godwin, Broc Raiford, Jacob Cable, and more. While Elstran put in work on a wild tech move for multiple hours, we caught Godwin annihilating the spot, and much more randomness as well.” – Ride BMX

Dan Kruk Spring 2018 Video Bike Check

April 9, 2018

Dan Kruk gives you a run through of his Wethepeople Battleship setup in this video bike check!

Here’s a video Bike Check that that guys over at Ride BMX must have let slip through the cracks featuring Dan Kruk giving us a run through of his setup with his signature Battleship frame colorway, as well as a handful of other signature parts from Wethepeople and Madera like his Party Paint Colorway. The reason we figure this is one that slipped through the cracks, is because Dan mentions his signature Stallis bars and frame colorway would be out in November, which came out last November, 5 months ago. Either way, the video is still rad and gives you a good look at what Dan is / was rolling around on, and it’s a dialed unit! Also, Dan is rad, so that makes it worth a share, too.

Sneak Peek: Madera – Gulf Coaster Freecoaster Hub

March 3, 2018

Get a look at the new Gulf Coaster hub from Madera BMX…

We’ve been hearing rumors about the new freecoaster hub from Madera for about a year or so now, and we’ve been patiently waiting to find out the full details since the start. If you have been following Madera, then you know they’ve been dropping some sneak peek looks at their new hub that’s going to be called the Gulf Coaster. We don’t have much for information on the specs and details, but from what we’ve gathered, and with the similarities between Profile Racing and Madera, we would imagine it’s very similar to a Z-Coaster hub, with a few tweaks to make it more affordable. We aren’t sure what kind of changes could be made internally since the Z-Coaster seems to be a really reliable hub that mixes a freecoaster and cassette into one.

What we do know is that the Gulf Coaster will be available this month, and we’ll make sure to get the full specs and details out as soon as they are available! Until then, check out a few other sneak peek photos below. After that, if you scroll down a little further, you can check out Dylan McCauley‘s welcome to the Madera Pro team video that came out a few weeks back. Dylan was putting this hub to work for that full video, so you can get an idea of what it can do.
