Author: Toby   Date Posted: 19 February 2019  

Excitement is at an all time high, as we've just checked in the latest BMX specific show from Vans.  These Vans Old Skool Pro BMX Peraza Shoes are without doubt some of the nicest sneakers we've set our eyes on.  The mix of 'old meets new' is just perfect.  These new kicks were designed with riding in mind...

Federal Products Are Here!

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 12 February 2019  

Stoke is at an all time high today.  Federal Bikes products are now officially in the building and shipping out to customers with 'good choice' as you read.  Unless you've been sleeping under a rock, you'll also know that our very own froth-dog 'Boyd Hilder' got added to the Federal Pro Team, just days before the Simple Session, and then went on to win the Pro Park event, so all round, this is the month of Federal... Get stoked and be sure to check the range in full.  Also be aware that this range will continue to grow, with more products already on route...

Congratulations Boyd Hilder!

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 4 February 2019  

Massive congrats go out to Boyd Hilder (@boydhilder) for making it rain in Estonia and coming home with the Simple Session win in Park.  Boyd deserves this so much, if you've seen the dude ride, you know that THIS RUN is basically every session anyway.  Together with landing himself a spot on the Federal Bikes Pro Team, I'd say this week has been pretty damn epic for Boyd.  Congrats brother...From us all here at LUXBMX

S&M Steel Panther Race Frames

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 16 January 2019  

The S&M Steel Panther Race Frame is here.  Built to out power any non-chromoly race frame.  The American made Steel Panther is King of the race frame jungle, which consists of so many delicate builds. Unlike it’s predecessors the S&M 38 Special and S&M Speedwagon, it’s not named after a cheesy rock band from the 80’s either...  All in all, this is the one beuatiful frame, built by BMXers for BMXers.  This is a true Bicycle Motocross Frame, that can be ridden off the track, as fast as on it....YEW!

Why Do We Push Helmets So Much?

Author: Toby   Date Posted: 15 January 2019  

What happens if I don’t wear a helmet? That question got answered for me on February 25th 2007. A quick warm up roll around a concrete park ended abruptly. Had I been wearing a HELMET, I most certainly would have walked away, that decision has changed my life forever... Having sustained a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), then undertaking a two year recovery, which involved learning to walk, talk, and basically relearning all general life skills.  

At the age of 23, being helped to the toilet, having speech therapy and being told that you'll never ride a bike again, seems like a risk that's never worth taking.  A quality certified HELMET can and will save lives.  This message, and helmet promo in general is solely to help spread this important message and get more riders wearing HELMETS.

This incredibly challenging time made myself and those closest to me intent on spreading the importance of HELMET safety... We’ve just launched a HELMET giveaway promo on our INSTAGRAM page, and I felt the reason behind this should be shared... So jump on over and help us spread the word.  It takes less than a minute to share the post, and together, we can get two more riders wearing the correct head protection...
