JACKSON BRADSHAW for RUFF BIKE CO

It’s here, one of the most anticipated edits of the year! Jackson has always been one of my favorite dudes to watch on a bike. All of Jackson’s videos have impressed me since he got on my radar. He never ceases to amaze with the creativity that goes into both his riding and camera work. For starters, the intro on this is great. Such a fun creative way to intro an edit. Next, I absolutely love all the nostalgic old footage mixed in with the banger tricks. Makes me wanna cry a little :’). Okay, for the actual tricks. There was never a dull moment for me. Highlights though include the slider at 1:43, the feeble hard at 2:12, the feeble 180 at 3:22, and whatever you wanna call 3:50. Do not sleep on this edit! Watch it now!

Johnathan Ball for Ruff Bike Co

It’s here! Here’s my welcome to Ruff Bike Co edit for 2019. Very stoked on the way this came out and even more stoked on how the bike feels. Personally, some of my favorite riding from myself to date and I hope you think so too! Share if you dig it!

Snag yourself a Ruff Sleeper frameset here while they’re still available!

While out with my friend today doing regular stuff we found ourselves next to a skatepark. By chance, I had my bike AND camera in my car so I told him to come take a picture of me real at this shitty little skatepark. I set him up, dialed in the settings, and let the continuous bursts fly until I got one I dubbed decent enough. You can tell I wasn’t really out riding by evidence via workout shoes.

GTK – ANDY SPARKS

Quite possibly the most recognizable face in the Fixed Gear scene, Andy Sparks is an outspoken man with vast amounts of fixed gear knowledge and skill. Being in the scene for almost 10 years now, Andy knows a thing or two about the “sport”. Here we gave him a chance to talk about himself and spread some fixie knowledge to the new generation of fixed gear kids. Buckle up, cause this just might be our best interview yet. Big thanks to Andy for being down to share his thoughts and thanks to Slumworm for providing essentially all the photos, we here at SMC are honored! If you aren’t already, follow Andy on IG @lolandysparks . The Andy Sparks interview is here, enjoy:
