Our second interview of the GTK interview series goes to Mike Schmitt. Who is Mike Schmitt? You’d have to have been living under a rock for the past 6 years to not know who Mike Schmitt is. Unorthodox FGFS killer, graphic designer, mastermind behind Turf Bikes, and a driving force behind FGFS as a whole since its beginnings. Get to know him below after the jump.

The now legendary Prickly Pear Jam in Arizona is done and everybody is still buzzing off the energy it brought to the community. I planned on taking more video and making an edit, but Mike and Slum seemed to have that covered and I was having too much fun riding with all these dudes to really put my bike down. I picked up my camera a bit though in between riding to cool off a bit and hide from the AZ heat and heres what I got. Easily one of the best FGFS events I’ve ever been to.
3 things.
First, we just dropped our new Gradient Tees which you should totally go cop cause they’re only $10 bucks.
Second, we just restocked on Royal HC straps. Snag them here!
Lastly, we are now carrying the new Chop Em’ Down Films FGFS DVD titled “Lucid”. This features riders from all over the world including Jimmy Watcha, Dew Sippawit, Elliott Milner, and Steven Jensen. Check out a little teaser here, and snag em’ here!
Order multiple stuff to save on shipping 🙂
Wheel Talk has been dropping day galleries of all of us out in AZ soaking up the 100 degree heat and enjoying each other’s company out in Arizona for the Prickly Pear Jam 2016 that just went down. It was such a blast and these photos from Matt are really amazing. We’ll be dropping our own gallery as well, but check out the rest of these photos here!

Chackong just updated their webstore with a ton of new FGFS goodies. Some of their new additions include:
Elliott Milner announced today that he will have a signature frame with Bombtrack called the “Zion” frame. If anyone deserves a signature frame, it’s definitely this dude right here. Stoked for my dude! Stay tuned for more info to come and follow Elliott on instagram @elliottmilner . Here’s what Elliott has to say about it:
“It’s not everyday you get to accomplish a childhood dream. So grateful to all the amazing people over at #bombtrack for allowing this to become a reality. My signature Zion frame is finally here! Be on the look out @bombtrackbicycleco will keep you up to speed on release dates and specs. Favor abounds!”
Ritchie VanPelt recently got some nice shots of him riding out in Rotterdam and The Netherlands that he sent over to us to post up. Sick shots! Photos by Martin Knorr. More after the jump.
