Take A Look at FBM’s New Warehouse

March 26, 2015

The other day FBM dropped six things you didn’t know about what was going on with their current situation that involved moving, being down a key man and more. Today, Steve hit us up with a link giving us a look at their new warehouse (that looks smaller, but quite a bit nicer than their previous location) that they’re dialing in to get the production of American made BMX frames and parts back on track. You can check out the progress photos, get their new address and phone number and more RIGHT HERE!

Six Things You Didn’t Know About FBM

March 24, 2015

One misconception about BMX is that there is a lot of money floating around, when in all reality it’s quite the opposite. Two of the most important abilities a person or brand needs to have if they’re working in the industry is the ability to work with a small budget and how to handle situations when things completely fall to shambles unexpectedly. The guys at FBM have always been pretty transparent about their business model and situation and they just dropped some interesting news about a hurdle they’re currently going through. You can learn all about it over on their website. Between being down an important man, having to move their entire operation and pretty much everything else that could go wrong, they’re still psyched on things.

The 7th episode of the Wheels of Confusion tour takes us to the 21st Birthday bash for FBM that went down last summer! This gets some insight from Steve Crandall and Kelly Baker along with a ton of wild footage from the event. This is what a good time looks like!

“The bus rolls into the peculiar HCS Skatepark and the Wheels of Confusion tour concludes with FBM’s 21st Birthday Party… There’s a wild crew in attendance; FBM legends, young bmx shredders, old bmx shredders, pros, skaters, weirdos and loiterers. Crandall and friends reflect on the journey so far, discuss the spirit of FBM, and pay tribute to fallen brother and FBM legend, Mike Tag. This video features lots of puke, wild riding, slams, a murdered sex doll and the next generation of FBM freaks coming up through the ranks and keeping the fire alive.”

FBM – Wheels of Confusion: A Tale Of BMX, Blow-Up Dolls And Ball-Busting Roof Gaps

March 6, 2015

The fifth episode of the “Wheels of Confusion” series featuring the FBM takes the crew to their home base in New York where Steve and the crew ride some local spots, check out the FBM warehouse and get close with a blow up doll… Wait… Yeah.

“The FBM crew is back where it all started in Ithaca, NY, where the dudes shred Steve Crandall’s old local, bust some trains, and heckle loan skateboard shredder Josh Swyers. From Ithaca the bus rolls to Binghampton, NY where Kenny Horton, Eric Holladay and Latane Cognill break off to ride some street and Holladay proceeds to bust his balls on a wild rooftop set up. Back at the FBM factory, the crew set up camp for the weekend, Crandall gives us some insight into running a independent business in an ever changing, fickle BMX landscape, and Travis gets acquainted with Lyndsay Blowhan, his “cuddle partner” for the trip.”

FBM – Wheels of Confusion: Ax Throwing and Dirt Jumping

January 26, 2015

I was wondering when the next episode from FBM‘s “Wheels of Confusion” tour would end up online! This time around the crew make their way to Catty Woods for a good day of cruising the trails and some BBQ action! Take it all in!

“Waking up on a hillside somewhere in Pennsylvania, the FBM crew throws a few axes for breakfast and then heads to the legendary Catty Woods trails for some bmxing and general chillin’. They enjoy an epic session while Travis (the One Eyed Wonder) snoozes… Eric Holladay is shredding, Van Homan and Rob Dolecki make an appearance, the locals kill it and Crandall cooks for the crew on the open fire… Good times hiding from the real world deep in the woods.”
