Bike Check

JBall’s Courttek Bike Check (Part 1)

Finally got to snap some pics of my current Courttek build in Trick Track mode. While it may not be the prettiest Courttek out of all the beautiful ones I’ve seen popping up, it’s built for function and is an absolute Trick Track machine. FGFS mode on this same frameset coming soon. Full gallery and rundown after the jump!

FOAD Gang – Courttek Build

While Jackson already released a very ASMR style Courttek video, he decided to make a more in depth look at his build with a lot of fun commentary about the bike + some riding. Watched this from front to back without getting bored at all, loving this. Great build!

Andy Sparks – Bodega Chillin

End of last year on my brief trip to SF I caught back up with Andy who I hadn’t seen in a while. We cruised around with a big group in Oakland, stopped at a convenience store, and there I saw his bike glowing in the sun. Naturally, I had to snap some pics of his iconic Nem Pro build. Since Andy’s online presence is pretty minimal these days, it was really nice to chat and catch up with him that weekend.

Jakob Santos SE Showtime Bike Check

Long time friend of the channel and FGFS legend turned big wheel bmx pro Jakob Santos still gets down with FGFS from time to time. He recently built up an SE Showtime and sent over some pics of his build. This is definitely one of his cleanest bike builds imo, details and gallery after the jump!

Sneak Peak: Ruff CSK Guard Sprocket + Bike Check

Today we have an SMC EXCLUSIVE sneak peak look at the new Ruff CSK sprocket I’ve been riding for the last month. I’ve been enjoying the benefits of not breaking my chain on things while simultaneously loving the way this thing looks on my bike. While this is only a prototype and things are subject to change, the front of the sprocket is actually design-less and the CSK engraving sits subtly on the back of the drivechain. I dig it.

Figured I’d shoot some complete pics of my current build too while I was showing off the sprocket. You’ll notice this time around a higher seat than normal and a bunch of new scratches on my paint. Stay tuned for Ruff sprocket updates!
