Rich Hirsch – Street Riding / Stranger Freecoaster Testing

March 14, 2017

We have been stoked on the videos that Rich Hirsch has been putting out during his trip to Taiwan to oversee production of some new Stranger and Primo products. This time around Rich takes us along for a ride to test out the new Stranger Freecoaster that’s in the works, then he sits down to answer a few questions. This is a pretty Vloggy video, but Rich mixes in some sneak peeks of a couple new products in the works and interesting bits throughout so it’s hard to skip around. Take a peek!

“This week we put a new freecoaster hub to the test and could not be more stoked on the results. Stick around for the end of the video if you’ve ever been curious about product design or working in the BMX industry.“

Rich Hirsch – New Stranger and Primo Product Sneak Peek

March 4, 2017

We haven’t been big fans of all the Vlogs, but we’ve been into Rich Hirsch‘s latest videos that he has been putting up on the Stranger channel. The reason for that is because he’s been sharing videos from where Stranger and Primo parts are being manufactured over in Taiwan. Today he dropped a video giving us a look at some of the new products they are currently testing like their new V2 freecoaster and front hub, Crux XL rim, new Stevie Churchill headset caps and tire color, some new bars, a fork and more. Plus, Rich strapped the camera on for some riding to test out a few of the new products before taking a spill. Take a look!

“You win some you lose some… Today I took out my new camera and tried to shoot some ride test shots while testing out some new pegs, and wheels but the spot gods had other plans and I ended up headbutting the sidwalk.

Featuring: @richhirsch

Note: Still working out the kinks in shooting with this new SJCAM M20, need to figure out how to dial in the mount and get it to point up a bit more.”

Rich Hirsch – Stranger Product Preview & Test Lab

February 23, 2017

It’s always interesting getting a look behind the scenes of what actually goes into producing BMX bikes, frames and parts. Rich Hirsch just uploaded this Vlog style video giving us a look into some of the new Stranger and Primo products, a behind the scenes look at their testing facility and more over in Taiwan. We normally don’t get to see this side of products, even though it’s a huge part of the process between a product idea and the bike you have to roll around on. Take a peek!

Stranger – Strange December

December 12, 2016

Here’s a short but sweet video from Stranger featuring some of their crew getting down on spots out in California. This has a pretty chill vibe to it, but there’s definitely fire in this one.

“Michael Harkous, Dylan Stark, Eric Lichtenberger, Connor Keating, Abdullah Alkhalili, and Caleb Quanbeck out stacking this month. Filmed by Nate Richter.

More monthly mixes eminent.”

A Life Lesson From Rich Hirsch

December 5, 2016

There’s a really great post up on the Stranger website that Rich Hirsch wrote giving some really solid life advice on career paths, college and how he got to where he is today as the owner of multiple businesses. You can check out the post right here — It Chooses You. We strongly suggest checking it out, especially if you have ever considered making a go at running a business based around BMX.

This post resonated well with me because my route to running a business in BMX had a some what similar route. I did finish high school, but didn’t finish college due to opportunities I pursued that allowed me to travel, learn photography, graphic design, website design and more on my own terms. It also lead me to learning how to run a business from marketing to taxes and how to incorporate a business. It is far more than it might seem on the day to day. I’ve never stopped learning and continue to learn anything and everything I can in and outside of BMX. For example, I fixed a furnace last night which was pretty fun since it was a new challenge when it would have been easier to just call a professional… The route of starting your own business isn’t for everyone and the more traditional track to a career might be for the best, and there is nothing wrong with that. At the same time, it’s also a lesson that has nothing to do with business and more of an indicator that if you want to do something, there’s nothing wrong with pursuing it even if it’s a path that is frowned upon by society. As long as it’s something you enjoy, then there’s nothing wrong with pursuing it. Much like Rich mentions in his post, you never know what you might be doing in 10 years, but just staying driven and motivated is huge to finding success wherever direction you go.

Stranger Trip to Las Vegas

December 2, 2016

Here’s a short but sweet video from some time some of the Stranger spent in Las Vegas recently. This is a pretty short one, so we would imagine they didn’t spend much more than a day or two our cruising spots. Even though it’s short, there is plenty of rad clips to take in. Hit play and enjoy!

“Couple clips Vegas featuring Connor Keating, Nate Richter, and Dylan Stark filmed by Calvin Kosovish.”
