Evel MTBers

2 months ago...

So I have these jumps just out of Greenville that I have rebuilt over and over again for about 5 years, I didn't go there for like a year as Im trying to move from Greenville, and at the start of June I worked for 5 days with a shovel to get them ready for a web video. I ended up hitting the road and getting busy, and I went out there today to get them ready to ride and the cheeky Mountain Bikers have moved in on my jumps, using a bobcat to flatten them out and make a sweet bridge obstacle.

Today..
History...


5 years ago Darden and I made a chill video from this spot. The trees got taken away in 2005..

BMX bicycles are designed for stunts, tricks, and peeing on hilly dirt BMX tracks. Sepeda BMX dirancang untuk stunts, trik, dan peeing kotoran di perbukitan trek BMX.

Race bike frames can be made out of aluminium, or steel, usually 4130 chromoly. Balap sepeda frame dapat dibuat dari aluminium atau baja, biasanya 4130 chromoly. The front and rear axles are 3/8" thick. They almost always have v-brakes, thinner chains, more aggressive, low pressure dirt tires, sometimes less spokes, and still widely use larger gearing than all other forms of bmx bikes. Bagian depan dan belakang axles adalah 3 / 8 "thick. Mereka hampir selalu ada v-brakes, rantai tipis, lebih agresif, rendah tekanan ban kotoran, kadang-kadang kurang kisi, dan masih banyak menggunakan gearing lebih besar daripada semua bentuk bmx bikes.

All other types of bmx bike frames are made of various types of steel. Semua jenis sepeda bmx frame yang dibuat dari berbagai jenis baja. Cheaper low end bikes generally use hi-tensile steel tubing, because it is much cheaper than chromoly steel. Murah rendah akhir bikes umumnya menggunakan hi-ketegangan sistem pipa-pipa baja, karena lebih murah daripada chromoly baja. Mid range bikes sometimes have a mixture of some tubes made from chromoly, and some from hi-tensile steel. Pertengahan rentang bikes terkadang ada campuran beberapa tabung yang terbuat dari chromoly, dan beberapa dari baja hi-ketegangan. The best bike frames are made from 100% 4130 chromoly steel, because it is the lightest and strongest steel that can handle the abuse of bmx riding.Sometimes the front axle is 14mm thick, but 3/8" is much more common on modern bikes. The rear axle, however is always 14mm thick, because it has to withstand much more abuse than the front axle does. The introduction and widespread popularity of the cassette hub has ushered in the use of smaller gearing on bmx bikes. Instead of the old 44/16 gearing found on almost all older bmx bikes, new bikes use gearing such as 36/13, 33/12, 30/11, 28/10, 25/9, and even 23/8. All those gearing ratios feel nearly identical to the old 44/16 gearing when pedaling. Advantages of smaller gearing include lighter weight, and more clearence when grinding. The freewheel hub is all but extinct due to several factors. The smallest freewheels can be made is with 13 teeth, which is larger than most riders prefer. Also, they are less consistent than cassette hub, and skip or jam up far more frequently. Frame sepeda yang terbaik adalah yang terbuat dari 100% 4130 chromoly baja, karena ia adalah lightest baja dan kuat yang dapat menangani penyalahgunaan bmx riding.Sometimes depan gandar adalah 14mm tebal, tetapi 3 / 8 "adalah jauh lebih umum pada modern bikes . The gandar belakang, namun selalu 14mm tebal, karena telah menahan lebih dari penyalahgunaan depan gandar tidak. Pengenalan meluas dan popularitas yang telah ushered hub kaset dalam penggunaan yang lebih kecil pada gearing bmx bikes. Tetapi yang lama 44/16 gearing ditemukan pada hampir semua tua bmx bikes, baru menggunakan bikes gearing seperti 36/13, 33/12, 30/11, 28/10, 25 / 9, bahkan 23 / 8. Semua orang merasa hampir gearing ratios identik dengan yang lama 44/16 gearing ketika pedaling. Keuntungan yang lebih kecil termasuk gearing berat ringan, dan lebih parah ketika clearence. The freewheel hub adalah semua kecuali punah karena beberapa faktor. freewheels terkecil yang dapat dilakukan adalah dengan 13 gigi, yang yang lebih besar dari kebanyakan Riders inginkan. Selain itu, mereka kurang konsisten dari kaset hub, dan melewatkan memacatkan atau jauh lebih sering.

On most freestyle bmx bikes, the front wheel has 36 spokes, but some more abusive riders use 48 spoke front wheels, because they are stronger. Pada kebanyakan freestyle bmx bikes, roda depan memiliki 36 kisi, tetapi beberapa lebih kasar Riders berbicara menggunakan 48 roda depan, karena mereka lebih kuat. The same goes for rear wheels. Hal yang sama berlaku untuk roda belakang. A lot of bikes use 36 spokes, most commonly on dirt jumping bikes. Banyak bikes menggunakan kisi 36, paling sering pada dirt jumping bikes. But 48 spoke rear wheels are very common, especially on street bikes, as they have to withstand harsher and more frequent impacts. 48 berbicara tetapi roda belakang sangat umum, terutama pada jalan bikes, karena mereka harus menahan harsher dampak dan lebih sering.

Race bmx bikes wheels can vary in size, from 20" to 24". Lomba bmx bikes roda dapat bervariasi dalam ukuran, dari 20 "sampai 24".

Dirt jumping and freestyle bikes wheel sizes include 16" and 18" for younger, smaller riders, 20" for most other riders, and a few companies including Haro and Sunday have even made 24" freestyle bikes for taller or older riders who feel cramped on a standard 20" bmx bike. Dirt jumping dan freestyle bikes termasuk roda ukuran 16 "dan 18" untuk lebih muda, lebih kecil Riders, 20 "untuk sebagian besar lainnya Riders, dan beberapa perusahaan termasuk Haro dan Minggu bahkan ada yang dibuat 24" freestyle bikes untuk lebih tinggi atau lebih Riders yang merasa sempit di standar 20 "bmx bike.

Allan killed it.




Friday at X-Games was wild. We had to leave the street finals just as Garrett won gold, hop on the freeway and rush to the Staples Center for BMX Big Air. Allan killed it, ended up 4th. Just got edged off the podium by Mirra. I snuck on top of the quarter pipe and took this pic, one thing I'm never doing is airing out of that thing. Wild.
