Here’s some news I didn’t see coming! Mike Brennan is now doing it for Colony! Real stoked on the news because it should mean we’ll be seeing even more from him now in the future! Check out a few words about the news below from Cooper Brownlee and Clint Millar!

“We are stoked to announce that one of New Jersey’s finest, Mike Brennan is now riding for Colony. I’ve known Mike for a little while now and everytime we would talk I could tell more and more that he was on the same page as us and things just fell into place from there. Next minute we are sending some product and the rest is history. I look forward to hanging out with Mike some more and collecting footage for future Colony projects because we all know he goes hard!” – Cooper Brownlee

“A few months back Cooper had told me that Mike had expressed interest and good words about what we have going on at Colony. I was stoked to hear this for sure. It wasn’t until a few months later that we had the chance to meet up at Interbike and right away from that first meeting, I knew this was going to happen. Mike is a down to earth guy with the right out look on BMX and life in general. I am stoked to have him a part of the family and I look forward to the years ahead.” – Clint Millar

The Merritt guys have been on fire with the edits lately. Check out this video from the session they got in at 5050 Skatepark a few weeks back! Plenty of goodness in this one!

“During our last trip, we stopped by 5050 Skatepark in Staten Island for a night session. The setup pretty much guarantees a good time, so the guys didn’t want to pass up the opportunity while they were in town. Hit up 5050skatepark.com for more info.“

Merritt – Spots and Shops

July 2, 2013

Merritt‘s Brandon Begin, Mike Brennan, Brad Simms, Justin Care, Brian Foster and Paul Barnum loaded up for a little tour of shops around the New England area. This is the video they came back with giving you a look at how each stop went along with some extra spots they hit between visits. Everything from the good times to the riding to the filming and editing is awesome minus the rain patches they hit so make sure you hit the play button now!

“Quick trip through New England dodging rain and hitting up some spots in between visiting The Daily Grind, Circuit BMX, Maul’s Bike Shop and Tony’s Bikes and Sports.“

Mighty Sprocket from Merritt Bmx on Vimeo.

Merritt’s first sprocket is made of 7075 aluminum, made in the USA and can hold up to Mike Brennan’s sprocket basing abuse. Sounds good to me! Watch the video above to see it in production and getting based into all sorts of things.

Insight: Merritt – Brian Foster Signature Bars

May 28, 2013

Merritt BMX Brian Foster Bars

Not too long ago, two familiar names in the BMX industry, Sean Curran and Mike Brennan, announced that they were making some moves and going all in and launching a brand of their own. Shortly after that news popped up, word about Merritt started floating around. Over the course of a few months, they slowly announced a hell of a team and introduced a few products that these two were working on.
One of those products in particular were some signature bars for the one and only Brian Foster. Once these bars became available, I knew I needed to get my hands on a pair to give a go.
Doing a review of handle bars isn’t exactly something easy to do because either they hold up or they don’t. I haven’t broke a pair of bars in about 10 years so I figured instead of trying to tell you they haven’t broke in the 2 months I’ve been running them, I’d give you guys a closer look at just what make these special. Let’s take a closer look.
