The ultimate boost weapon went back to the workshop and partook in some surgery! Now coming with more rounded top tube sizes from the 21.1, 21.4 and 21.6! This blasting beast is well equipped! With welded lugs, lowered chain stays for extra brake clearance and a newly embossed head tube badge.

We want the next generation of bike riders to fall in love with the sport as we have, for exercise, fun and friendship. Not all kids have the opportunity, though. Which is why this holiday season SE donated hundreds of bikes to six organizations in Philadelphia, all with the goal of … well, getting kids on bikes!
 
“We wanted to partner with our community and give back to organizations that are working hard to improve the lives or our kids in our cities,” said Frank Zimmer, president of BikeCo, the American distributor of SE Bikes.

Exciting news from the Simple Session team – we have just released our brand new 20th Anniversary event website along with the epic course design and the incredible line-up of athletes including past and present world champions and Simple Session gold medalists.

Behold – the Simple Session 20th anniversary course design! The man behind the park design is the one and only Nate Wessel, who for the 14th time in a row has blessed us with a course that will cater for everybody – the fast and loose, the tech and precise, the skaters and the bikers.

Some events become traditions. The organizers are stuck doing the work year after year. It's nothing bad, just a lot of work. Behind the scenes it's always hectic, there are always problems to be solved. While the party people have made plans for a trip, the organizers are keeping their fingers crossed that things won't go out of hand and everyone will have a good time. The 2019 Freedom BMX Awards took place in Aurich at the Adventsjam last week. Timm Wiegmann's 20th jam edition played host to the annual award show and it turned out that these riders went home with an award.

Red Bull BMX seemed to happen on the regular years ago. Not so much anymore, unfortunately because when Red Bull puts something on, you know it's going to be a good time. Drew Bezanson and Daniel Wedemeijer were part of the Red Bull Framed Reaction held in Amsterdam back in 2013. Both riders are now the team leaders for Red Bull Uncontained which will happen on Saturday 30 November next.

Uncontained promises to be big. With stacked containers and a roll-in of 14 meters, expect the riders to take it to the sky in De Papierfabriek in Nijmegen. The Team competition Drew vs Daniel will bring some top riders to The Netherlands next week. Drew's team has a bunch of party animals in it. Cory Walsh,

Recognized for legendary style and performance, the French freestyler infuses his personality and a pop of color into this classic with a first-ever BMX Wafflecup outsole. This holiday, Vans, the original action sports footwear and apparel brand, proudly drops a brand-new Matthias Dandois signature colorway in the Old Skool Pro BMX. The global team rider and seven-time world freestyle champion’s shoe-of-choice represents an upgraded Vans classic, enhanced for BMX-specific performance with a first-of-its-kind Wafflecup outsole meant to increase support and pedal feel.

The Matthias Dandois signature colorway adds a playful-yet-purposeful pop of color among an otherwise sea of black. Infusing his personality into the shoe, Matthias has added his custom “Dent-Doigt” (pronounced “daen-dwah,” like his namesake) heel graphic, which translates to “tooth-finger” in English.

A visual depiction comes to life on the custom UltraCush insole, all developed by Matthias’ tattoo artist and friend, who inked the rider’s original inspiration for the graphic: a tattoo on his right forearm.

Vans UltraCush HD sockliner delivers the highest level of impact cushioning, keeping the foot close to the pedal without packing out over time. The shoe is built with Vans Wafflecup BMX sole, the sport’s first-ever vulcanized cupsole, specifically designed to improve support without sacrificing grip and pedal-feel. The Old Skool Pro BMX is complete with Duracap, reinforcing high abrasion zones and prolonging
