The latest BMX Videos, Products and News!
Wrapping up Frostbike 2016, we made our way on over to the Wethepeople booth for a look at their 2016 range of complete bikes, frames and parts they had on display! This had a mix of new items and a few we have seen before. Either way, there was plenty to see at this one, so let’s get into this already!
It’s Friday, so that means it’s time for a new Four Clip Friday from Wethepeople. This time around we get four real solid clips from their Canadian connect, Justin Hughes, getting down at the Le Taz skatepark! Get to checking out these grinds!

Wethepeople caught up with Dillon Lloyd to take a closer look at his signature Buck setup decked out with Wethepeople and Eclat parts from top to bottom in a new Bike Check. We’ve see most of the parts on his bike, but it does appear that he’s running a sample of the Alex Kennedy signature guard sprocket from Eclat that some people have been wondering about. You can check out a bunch of photos and a full parts list on the Wethepeople website — Dillon Lloyd Buck Check
With the release of Ed Zunda‘s signature Awake frame from Wethepeople, we had a feeling we would be seeing a video promoting the frame sooner than later. Today, Wethepeople dropped this banger of a BMX video featuring Ed putting the frame to heavy use, along with a few detail shots. Hit play and take all this gold in!

“Our most responsive Street frame yet, Ed Zunda’s signature AWAKE frame was designed with the technical street assassin in mind.
Ed is a very specific rider, knowing exactly what he needed to match his riding, and that made for a frame with a very specific list of features…
Ed’s first request was that we use a shorter chainstay than our other frames so we went with a 13″ (slammed) rear end and paired it up with a steeper 75.5 degree headtube and a 11.75″ bottom bracket height to keep the AWAKE frame as agile and nimble as possible. Ed is hard on frames, so for his signature model he really wanted something that was built to last a long time before you would even need to consider replacing it.
We beefed up the backend with 7mm invest casted dropout, which use a special designed shape that gives ample clearance for pegs and hub guards, even with the rear wheel slammed all the way back.”
Wethepeople have uploaded Ed Zunda‘s section from the “Lit” video online for your viewing pleasure. This section is packed full of lines filled with grinds, manuals, nose manuals, barspins, that you better believe Ed put together smooth as butter. Hit play and take it all in!
