Matt Reyes In Japan

Caught this sick shot of Slum on the Wheel Talk site from their Japan trip last year. Matt’s tucks are unmatched. Photo by Seitaro Iki.

Check out the rest of the WT crew’s Japan trip here.

Miguel Zendejas & His ∆nthem Build

Riding in long beach a couple weeks ago I got these shots of Miguel with his ∆nthem complete. Bike is dialed.

Stolen Bike Co. | Zeke 26″ Complete

The well known BMX company Stolen Bike Co. just unveiled a 2015 26″ complete bike, The Zeke. This thing looks awesome. Not sure if it comes with a fixed river or not, but that can easily be changed with a new hub. Stoked to see them get in to the game.

EDIT: The rear hub spacing on this bike is NOT 120mm. Adding a fixed rear hub to this bike would not work and I hope nobody tried it yet. Our apologies.

Heres the specs they’ve released so far:

FRAME: Full Chromoly frame, integrated seat clamp, new compact 5mm dropout, sealed Mid bottom bracket
STEERING: TIG welded 6.75” handlebars, Stratos top load stem, Loot grips, sealed integrated headset, Chromoly fork w/ one-piece steerer
DRIVE: 25x10t, semi-sealed cassette w/ double wall Revolver rims, STLN 26×2.2“ tires, Aftermarket MOB cranks, Thermalite pedals
SEATING: Fat padded seat combo w/ integrated 200mm Aluminum post
COLOR: Matte Raw Silver
WEIGHT: TBA lbs.

Calvin Gunt | Rail Smith

A few days ago we all went riding in HB, and everybody was going in. It was Calvin’s first time riding in a while and first thing he says to us is “I think I can get on that rail”. We all looked at each other and weren’t really sure if he meant it or not, because what’s not apparent in the picture is the bike length gap that you have to hop in order to get on that rail. Sure enough, Calvin pulled off this smith and the crowd went wild. SO insane. Photo by Phil Arellano.

Robert Rice | Luc-E For LDG

Out riding a couple days ago we hit this awesome ledge in HB with the whole gang. Phil decided to set up his camera and got this sweet shot of Robert hitting a Luc-E on it.

Jacob Santos | Silvo Session

SIlvo is a little local Bixby Knolls gem hidden away in a neighborhood that we love to session. We were there the other night and I snagged this flick of him barspinning the pyramid which I think came out pretty cool.

Matt Spencer | Tabletop

Caught this sick photo of Matt on insta. Looks like he’s rolling on a Hold Fast frame now with four pegs! Stoked to see what comes of it. Clicked table.

Justin Congo Mitchell | Portrait

Pretty stoked on how this shot came out of Congo with his bike. I remember a photo a while back of him that was pretty similar to this, anybody know where that is?

Cole Ruffing | Footjam 180

Cole’s fluent style mixed with his creative approach to riding makes for some seriously wild looking tricks. One trick that he can do that I’ve never seen anyone else mess with is the footjam 180’s he does off ledges. Snapped this pic the other day riding in Long Beach. To see it in action, check out his part in Young Guns here!

A Day Out In Long Beach

Yesterday I rode over to Long Beach to meet up with some dudes. Little did I know that EVERYBODY ended up showing up and ended up being a full blown Long Beach fixed gear takeover. Here’s some of the lifestyle shots I ended up snapping of the day. More after the click.
