Bike Check | Jacob Santos’ Concept Assassin

Jacob is part of our sMc family and one of the dudes I hang out and ride with the most. He’s one of the nicest people you’ll meet and also happens to shred on a bike. He just sized up to a medium Concept Assassin instead of a small and gave it a rad paint job. The bike is beyond dialed and rides really well.                                                                        See after the jump for a rundown and more pictures.

Checking In | Christian Ustarroz And His Custom Whip

It’s been a while since I’ve met up with my buddy Christian. He had a rim to sell me, so it was a perfect opportunity to head up to LA and meet up with him at his local bike shop, Golden Saddle Cyclery, to buy a rim, shoot some video, and snag some photos of his sweet new paint job on a custom frame, dubbed, the “Toe-Breaker.” Of course I’m not as good at taking pictures as Prolly, but you get the idea. No doubt, this is a beautiful build.  More photos after the jump.

Robert Rice | Scrap Clips

These are hardly scrap clips for a lot of people, these are real killer. Robert has been killing it so hard lately. His style is unique, steezy, and his tricks are out of the ordinary, which is the key to standing out from the rest.

The 180 table was too clicked.

Tyler Nakamoto | Cookie Crumbs V1

It’s been a real long time since we’ve seen any content from Tyler Nakamoto, but it look like he’s been staying at it. Judging by the “V1” title, there will be more of these to come. Definitely looking forward to that. Flat double bar was crazy.

Lookback | The Posse – Goodbye 2012 Edit

I re-discovered this edit yesterday as I was doing some digging around for some of the sMc crew’s old edits. Our dudes Robert Rice and Jacob Santos were in this one along with a bunch of our other homies. The crew was killer and the editing was on point. The songs went really good with the riding too. It’s a shame this crew isn’t around anymore and most of them deserted the Fixed Gear scene. But none the less, the video was really sick. Everybody went hard. Just a bunch of friends having fun on bikes, that’s what it’s all about.
