For 2015, Sunday offers the Primer model in an 18" model making a fun, small size bike that kids will want to keep riding. It's shorter chain stay, lighter wheels and specific frame make it easier to learn on. Available with an 18.5" Toptube and 7.65" rise bars suitable for riders under 5ft 5". Sunday's junior shredder sports great quality Sunday parts and Odyssey's aftermarket Springfield brakes with Quikslic cable for troublefree braking performance.
The Recruit 12 is United's' first venture into producing a 12″ bike, and like their 16" and 18″ bikes, they wanted to make sure to come out with something that handles and looks like a scaled down 20″ bike rather than just a cheap small kids bike. United kept a bunch of high end features on this model with a fully sealed 4 pawl ultra loud cassette hub, threadless headset and 3pc cranks. They then tailored other parts to the smaller dimensions of the bike with a slimmer tube set, 20 spoke wheelset, small junior size lever, grips, seat, stem and pedals.
Today was a special day for me. It was my first BMX training on an official BMX track. After dinner we went to FCC Wheels in Erp. I looked at the track on the website but I could not wait to see it in real life. My sister was going to ride her first Dutch BMX track also and we were ready for it. I had just got a new bike, the 2015 HARO Expert XL and I love it. Veerle got some new goggles from the Eurobike show that my dad brought over. We gathered our old MX gear and were ready for some laps on the track.FATBMX Kids unite at the FATJAM. Full day of dirt riding in Aarle-Rixtel, NL. By Philip de Jong

Better late than never. We have put a photo gallery together of the young ones who came over to the FATJAM to ride at the Sugar Hills trails. It was a full day of riding together with the big boys. At 15:00hr we got the dirt spot to ourselves and uncle Paul got on the microphone and made some funny jokes. He also gave out two boxes full of prices and everyone who rode the dirt jumps received at least something. I was ultra happy with my new TSG Dawn helmet. I've wanted that helmet for a long time but my head was not big enough yet. Now it is and it fits perfect. The session was great. Jocki did nice no-footers and also great no-footed cancans. Jarno was doing cool one-footers and then Paul told him to do a one-footer with his other foot for a prize. We all rode long trains together.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
