BIKE CHECK – Gary Young’s Soundwave
Gary Young’s bike looks may look like it’s been put through hell, but it’s a Soundwave so you know it can take it. This frame is the highest quality and most durable frame that we’ve ever made. It comes with some Sunday firsts like hollow dropouts with built in chain tensioners, post-machine welding of the BB/HT and Wave Tubing on the top and down tubes. Plus it is all backed by the 41 Thermal Lifetime Warranty. Choose wisely!
Check out Gary’s 2014 signature EX complete bike HERE.

VIDEO – Welcome to the Team Lukas Häusler
Our German team is stacking up nicely with the addition of Lukas Häusler to the squad. This video is full of smooth lines and good tricks. How good is the way he gets out of backwards crooked grinds? His feeble to snaggletooth is awesome too. Welcome to the team Lukas! We are stoked! Filmed and edited by Timm Wiegmann.

PHOTO: Alex Magallan switches it up!
Alex Magallan goes switch for Wallride Wednesday. If you’ve paid attention to Alex’s riding over the years, there’s a good chance that you will see him riding a spot that you’ve never seen before. Here’s some random under a bridge spot that Alex probably found while exploring Tennessee. Photo by Nathan Magallan.
New 18″ frame prototype photo
If you’ve been living under a rock then you might not notice that there are so many young kids riding BMX these days. Which is why did a sneak peek of our new 18 ” frame on BMX Groms, a site dedicated to younger BMX riders. Want to be inspired by young BMX rippers then go to that site.
Let’s get back to the new frame. It is a full chromoly 18″ frame called the Radocaster. It will have the same geometry as our Primer 18 complete bike and it will come with hollow dropouts and removable brake mounts. There will also be a full chromoly 18″ fork as well. Look for the frame and fork to be available late summer/early fall.
Look for Saker Cranks to be offered in sizes for 18″ bikes by summer.
Here’s the geometry…
Radocaster Geometry
- TOP TUBE LENGTH: 18.5″ TT
(RECOMMENDED FOR RIDERS UNDER 5’5″) - HEAD TUBE ANGLE: 74.5°
- SEAT TUBE ANGLE: 71°
- CHAINSTAY LENGTH: 11.75”
- BOTTOM BRACKET HEIGHT: 10.35”
- STANDOVER: 7.5”
