It has been a little while since we’ve caught up with Ben Lewis, so when we saw he dialed in his bike before making a trip over to the U.S. to film for the Etnies “Chapters” DVD, we figured it would be the perfect time to take a closer look at his Fit Bike Co. Benny L V2 setup decked out with Fit and Animal Bikes parts and to find out what he has cooking with his sponsors and plans for the year now that 2016 is under way! Ready?

Harry Main Off Monster Energy

January 14, 2016

Welp. It looks like the Harry Main sponsor changes weren’t quite done yet. Today he announced that he has parted ways with Monster Energy after seven years. No word on why or if Harry has something else lined up, but I’d be willing to bet that was a noticeable pay check to lose.

“No longer riding for Monster Energy. This year we have parted ways after 7 years together we are both doing separate things which is cool! Had such a sick time with these guys and unforgettable moments! Thanks for everything!”

Monster Energy – Kevin Peraza Is On Fire

January 14, 2016

With a title like that, you better believe this is one of those wild MUST SEE BMX videos! Monster Energy just dropped this banger of a video featuring Kevin Peraza absolutely destroying some of his local skateparks and spots! Stop reading and HIT PLAY!

“While most riders make the move to Southern California, Kevin is happiest at home in Tucson surrounded by family and friends. For the last year he has ridden his local spots, visualizing new lines and tricks on the familiar ramps. When it came time to put it on camera Kevin was unstoppable. Whether it was coming up with a way to create green fire, building a massive wall ride or pulling never been done tricks, when Kevin sets his mind to something he always gets what he wants.

The Day BMX Took Over The Streets Worldwide

January 1, 2016

This past summer, Monster Energy‘s Street Series contest decided to do one full day of BMX all over the world with jams going on in the U.S., U.K, Latvia and Japan. Check out this highlight reel from each stop all in one video. It was definitely a wild one and it sounds like we’ll be seeing it go down once again this summer!

“The Street Series Jams went global in 2015 in support of #BMXDAY and they couldn’t have gone any better! On the 18th of July we saw multiple street jams going off worldwide, all in the name of having fun on bikes. We were there with DIG for the five main events in Glasgow UK, Riga in Latvia, Nagoya in Japan and San Francisco/Chicago in the US… and we thought we’d put them all together and show you what went down that day in one single recap edit. One of the most exciting factors of street jams is the fact that anything can happen and this year was no different. High speed gaps, run-ins with cops, crazy locals and mobs of riders weaving their way though cities… this is how you do it!

And that’s not all; we’re stoked to announce that you can look out for a 2016 Street Series jam in support of #BMXDAY jam near you on July 23rd. Look for more new on DIGBMX.com early this year. #BEAPARTOFIT

Filmed by Peter Adam, Veesh , David Leep, Will Stroud, Ben McPherson” – DIG

Ryan Guettler Off Monster Energy

December 28, 2015

With the end of the year hitting at the end of this week, the sponsor changes for 2016 will be starting to hit hard. Today, Ryan Guettler will no longer be apart of the Monster Energy program for 2016! He made the announcement on Instagram…

“After 13 years of good times I want to announce I will no longer be riding for @monsterenergy No use crying over spilled milk, we’re already the luckiest guys on the planet. #BMX“.

It sounds like he’s not all too disappointed by the news, so that’s a positive. Ryan still remains a pro rider and team manager for Hyper and Snafu, along with the pro teams for Vans and Ethika.
