Karl Hinkley 2022 Video Bike Check

October 10, 2022

Check out Karl Hinkley’s current Nowear setup!

There’s a time when every BMX rider thinks about having their own signature frame or product, or even starting their own brand. Most of the time those ideas or goals don’t end up happening, but every now and then there is somebody out there that finds a way to make it happen. Karl Hinkley is one of those people who likes to make his dreams a reality. Over the years Nowear went from a couple t-shirt designs, to Karl going all in on making frames, bars and other parts that he wanted to see happen. These parts definitely stand out, and ultimately Karl has been able to build up a bike of his very own. During the 10th annual Cornhuckit Jam, Brant Moore caught up with Karl to take an in-depth look at his current brakeless setup. Hit play to let Karl give you the run down of the setup, along with the story behind the Nowear parts!

Nowear BMX – Dave Mahoney Returns

October 29, 2021

Now this is awesome. After a 4 year hiatus (we’re not sure why), Dave Mahoney is back! You would think after that much time off the bike it would take a while to figure things out, but it looks like muscle memory kicked in and he had no trouble absolutely crushing it for his first session back! We have no idea how he was able to do all these tricks like he’s been riding the whole time, but that was amazing.

“Dave Mahoney shreds a local park in Frederick Colorado.
This was filmed in one afternoon and was Dave’s first time stepping foot on a BMX bike in 4 years.

I think we can all agree we’d love to see much more of this.
Don’t worry… Nowear has something special in the works with Mr. Mahoney.
Stay Tuned” – Nowear

Nowear – Dan Nielsen Beastmode Frame Promo

September 28, 2021

Nowear coming through with a fresh promo video featuring Dan Nielsen putting his signature Beastmode frame to work on everything from parks and dirt to street! As always, Dan delivers with some amazing riding you won’t want to miss! This video also gives you a look at the frame, which has that unique look Nowear frames have! Check out more details below!

“The “Beastmode” ride is made right here in the USA!
Lots of thought went into the design of the bike all the way down to the head tube badge sticker, it was drawn by Dan’s friend and teammate at Pusher Bike shop Preston. It’s a paw print in memory of Danimal’s beloved dog Zor and the Lion heads represent an organization Dan’s grandpa belonged to in his home state of Nebraska.

This frame is very versatile and performs great on Park, trails or Street.
Perfect combination of responsive, control and strength.
Nowear’s unique top tube design gives you both added strength and additional clearance to stretch your tricks further than you ever thought possible.
Here it straight from the riders themselves:

“The lower TT design has opened up room that I actually never knew I needed until I got on this frame. From folding tables to fun can can stuff. Its a simple idea that gives you extra room and enhances these timeless tricks It’s something anyone could have designed, but didn’t until now. Designed, built and used by real riders.” – Adam Banton

“The opened up design makes getting my disabled leg over on tail whips so much easier! It’s benefitted me in more ways than one! I was worried that because of the top tube, I would lose some control. But, this frame is literally the most stable, yet precise frame I’ve rode, it flips like an absolutely dream, the build quality is incredible and the control I have on this frame is unmatched! It’s perfect!” – Dan Butler aka Disabled Dan

Stock dimensions:
Head Tube 75.75
Seat tube 72
Chainstay 13.25 slammed
BB 11.6
Top tube 21″ Note: additional Top Tube sizes will be available next spring

Video was filmed and edited by Danny Camacho & GrindWheel Productions
