Our former super employee, Logan Beyhl, left in early April to open his new bike shop in Chicago called Let’s Roast Cycles. Read the interview Dig BMX did with him about his new venture. Congrats Logan!

My Favorite Line
Cory Foust can flow any park whether its wood or concrete. He filmed this My Favorite Line segment for The Wheel Mill in Pittsburgh last week. If you have a chance to ride this park then by all means do so. The Woods Room is amazing!
Happy Birthday Chris Childs
Everyone wish Chris Childs a happy birthday today!!! Huge flip over the sketchy box jump from the Donner Party event.
Primer 16
The 2014 Primer 16 continues to lead the pack when it comes to 16″ bikes. From offering the shortest chain stay length to just having a 16″ specific head tube, this bike was purposely designed to make the bike more maneuverable for younger riders. Check below to see a full parts list.
Aaron Ross in Chicago!
Aaron Ross will be in Chicago this Sunday from 1-3pm for the grand opening of the new Let’s Roast Cycles Bike Shop. There will be a jam afterwards as well. Check below to get the shop address and info.

Erik Elstran Goes to Berlin
Erik Elstran is seriously one of the most talented and skilled riders in BMX. Erik Elstran Goes to Berlin leaves zero doubt about that. How many good tricks are in this video? How much fun did he have riding his bike on the playground trampolines? How satisfied would you have been if you just rode down the thing at the end instead of doing what Erik did? Just watch and enjoy this one because it is a serious treat! Erik Elstran for NORA Cup! Filmed and edited by Grant Castelluzzo.
Erik Elstran Goes to Berlin Teaser
Erik Elstran is one of the most creative and interesting riders in BMX today. His videos appeal to riders of all types and just as important is his appeal to people outside of BMX. This Monday August 26th, you are in for a treat because we are releasing his new video, Erik Elstran Goes to Berlin. It will make you laugh, maybe cry and more than likely leave you speechless. Get psyched!
Visual How-To: Chain Tensioners
Sunday Bikes has offered chain tensioners built into our hollow dropouts on select frames since 2007. Currently, it’s offered on the Soundwave, Funday 2.1 and Wave C frame. The system is really simple and will hold your wheel in place. During the filming of our Up, Up and Away video, Jake Seeley was having hub issues and rode a 10 day trip with his wheel barely tight. The chain tensioners were able to prevent his wheel from moving even though the axle was not fully tighten down. Here is a brief explanation of how they work.
