Insight: Madera – Polished Colorway
BMX is an ever revolving door when it comes to colors. Over the years we’ve seen everything from every kind of black you could imagine to bright neon colors that could give you a seizure if you looked at it long enough. Colors go hand in hand with the creative aspect of BMX and it can even be a direct reflection of the type of rider that is on a bike. There’s no denying that we’ve seen a lot of unique colors and a handful of colors that will always remain a classic in BMX and it will continue that way forever.
For those of you who don’t know, Madera is a brand that was created as a more affordable option to the high quality that Profile Racing offers. Both brands are produced right here in the U.S.A down in Florida out of the same warehouse and both brands use the same high quality materials and craftsmanship in creating their products, but thanks to manufacturing techniques Madera can be offered at a more affordable price point thanks to cutting costs through production time or aesthetic touches without sacrificing any of the quality.
Over the years, we’ve only seen a few colors from Madera; classic gloss black, Fall red, Snow white, nickel, a crazy graffiti wrap and their recent “Rust” copper addition. Needless to say they aren’t changing things up all the time to meet the latest trends like oil slick. However, today, were stoked to give you the first look at their newest addition to their color line up, polished, that is now offered on their hubs and Mast top load stems. The polished colorway has been a classic in BMX since the start and it’s one color that always looks good. We are stoked on the news about the color and thought it would be rad to take a closer look at how they get the hubs and stems to shine down in Florida. Make the jump and find out how it’s done and learn how you can WIN a Polished Mast stem for yourself!

Kink – Chris Doyle Vs The Curved Rail
Chris Doyle is pretty notorious for his trails skills, but he also is known to drop the hammer on parks and streets too! This BMX video Kink dropped gives you a look at a long fought battle filled with a lot of ass kicking on an insanely scary rail that Chris did a while back for the “Safety First” DVD! Needless to say, Chris is the fucking man! Watch this video, then make the jump to watch the full DVD part!
“We were filming for Kinks “Safety First” DVD, and the road had lead us to Atlanta, Georgia. I believe this rail was in Murietta, a suburb of Atlanta. Doyle was pretty heavy into filming mode, shredding everything from street to transitions. When we drove by this rail, he called it out, and we didn’t leave until he pulled it. Short run up, shitty rail, and a seemingly impossible curve. We had only been traveling together as the current Kink team for about a year and a half at this point, and we obviously knew what Doyle was capable of. However, this triumphant session ended up being one of the most intense we had experienced in a long time. This day in Georgia, Doyle showed everyone what it means to not only be a true professional, but also how versatile he really is on a BMX bike.” – Kink
