One of my favorite videos


Mash from romk on Vimeo.


I watched this video for the first time quite some time ago, it never gets old for me though.
The combination of Andy making his bike look like it has a coaster brake, and m83 = joy.

Chicago summer here we come!




These are some flicks that Michal Tuszynski took over the summer of some of the best that Chicago has to offer. Michael Vorel, Russell Woelfel, Sean Callahan, and more.

keo I have a question


Alright, so I have had a bareknuckle (what I believe to be Keo's current ride)
now I have a Fuji track pro, and I have no idea what he's talking about when it comes to the fluidity of the trick with what your bike is made out of. 
I can feel a difference in the aluminum no doubt, its stiffer and in my opinion more responsive, but that whole square thing while doing tricks I cant seem to grasp. 
If anything I feel its easier to whip the bike around because its lighter/stiffer. 
Ive seen videos and photos of both steel and aluminum being obliterated 
Im guessing because steel is traditional thats why everyone goes with it. If a steel frame dents/cracks/folds whatever people just say "that sucks" BUT if you take the same situation, but replace the steel with aluminum EVERYONE says "steel = reall" it makes no sense to me. Any ideas?
