Montana Ricky – Jibberish

February 25, 2022

Montana Ricky coming through with a gem for your viewing pleasure on this Friday. Here’s his section from the “Jibberish” video that was originally released in 2020. Hit play for a bunch of creative and unique clips, then check out the full video down at the bottom if you want to see more!

“So as the years go by and websites, video channels and other sites close down. Edits and videos parts get lost into the internet either. I have lost a few videos of myself and I wanted to upload and save what I can so at least I have them all collected for myself or if anyone wants to watch me doing the same tricks over and over.

This video is from the video project called “Jiberish ” the locals in Vegas were filming and I was in town for a few days so I went out and gathered some clips and I got a part.

Thanks Alex Bryan and Johnny Hendry” – Montana Ricky

“Sometimes you fail at going out and searching for spots to film for a edit you owe and instead you say “hell with it”. So the Filmer and you ride switch the camera amongst yourselves and boom you have a little day edit..” – Montana Ricky



New Distributor Fifteen Distribution Has Been Launched

June 20, 2021

Fifteen Distribution BMX

Here’s some interesting news that we spotted on Instagram. It looks like Chris Riesenberger, Montana Ricky, Mike Brennan and Sean Curran have all teamed up to launch a new BMX distributor company called Fifteen Distribution. As some of you know, Chris was running the sales show over at Blackout for years before being let go unexpectedly a few months back. Mike Brennan and Sean Curran are co-owners of Merritt and Montana Ricky has been holding down sales for Merritt since the brand launched a few years back. Between the four of them, they all bring A LOT of industry knowledge and history to the table from practically every direction as riders, product development and design, sales in every link in the supply chain and more.

It appears Fifteen Distribution is focused on Merritt and Theory Parts (a sub brand of Merritt) right now, but we could imagine them adding a few brands in the future if things go as well as it should. Things in the industry have been changing up quite a bit these past few years thanks to technology and the internet making it a lot easier to manage every aspect of running a business, and it seems a lot of brands have their own in-house distribution setup, making it so they can directly work with shops and mail-orders ensuring they can supply the volume and the speed of delivery that is demanded now days. With virtually every brand selling direct to the customer or direct to the dealers as either a brand or their own distribution company.

The pandemic has been a double edge sword for the business side of BMX. Sales have never been easier due to a huge increase in demand, but the production side of things has been overwhelmed causing huge delays in manufacturing, price increases and ridiculous wait times for delivery due to a shortage of shipping containers and boats, which is why you have been seeing so many “sold out” notifications lately. 2021 and 2022 will likely be interesting years due to these issues.

Overall, this is an exciting new partnership that could be real good. Check out what Chris and Montana Ricky have to say about the news below!

“I used to run a bunch of retail shops in the 90s with my friends. In dealing with vendors and reps you really learn a lot. You get some good ideas from good reps. You also get even better ideas from the bad ones with all the industry bullshit not to do. Later in life I owned my own shop for 13 years. When it’s your own money to lose it takes on an even greater dynamic and we respect that. I feel like I held my reps to high standards and willingly punished the reps who didn’t live up to that regardless of how much they thought I “had to have” their brand. The last year in the cycling industry was pretty crazy, and I think most of my friends that own shops are really considering their vendor partnerships and where they want to spend their dollars going forward. I always thought it sucked when work turned into work when it could be fun, and I think myself and Montana Ricky being ex shop owners really understand it like nobody else could. We welcome all your ideas for us and you will be heard. Together we can make this everything we think a vendor should be. With the brains of Sean Curran and Mike Brennan and their insane work ethic, together with Ricky and myself, we’d like to welcome you to be our partners in Fifteen Distribution.” – Chris Riesenberger

“I’m thrilled and happy to announce @fifteendistribution a company that’s there for the shops. If you know anything about me you will know that I am in love, addicted and all about the SHOPLIFE. I talk, breath and even sleep bikes. This new beginning here is something that will be for everyone, bike shops, core shops and even the most over looked “Mom and pop” shops. Now that we have @reezbmx on board I know his passion, experience and love as a bike shop owner is a combination that can’t lose. So if your one of the SHOPS We talk to or We text, email with or FaceTime. This new company is for you so tell US what you WANT and I promise you I’ll give an HONEST answer even if it’s something you don’t wanna hear… Love you all can’t wait to start this new adventure with you…” – Montana Ricky

Suck A Peg! North Jersey Scene II

July 5, 2020

The crew out in New Jersey coming through with another full-length BMX video for your viewing pleasure! “Suck A Peg!” North Jersey Scene II” is just over 40 minutes of riding from a ton of familiar faces on countless spots the place has to offer from rails and ledges to parking garages, the Merritt warehouse and much, much more. Get on that play button and take it all in!

“After driving countless miles on New Jersey highways with potholes big enough to catch tranny and spending all our money on tolls, we’ve managed to pull together enough cellar door footage and find enough handrails with questionable runups to finally finish this slightly above average video. Featuring full length parts from Willem Jorgensen, Ricky Lopez, Marc Ramos, Justin Seiller, and Zack Henderson. With clips from Anthony Catlow, Charlie Crumlish, Chijioke Okafo and more to spice up friends section, now you have a somewhat decent bike stunt movie that will only be slightly wasting your time.”
Filming by Marc Ramos
Additional filming: Scotty HD, Zack Henderson & Justin Seiller.
