JAOA DANAIKRIT + WHEEL TALK 2013
One hell of a game changer to finish off the 2013 year. Almost every clip is banger material. I kept expecting the video to end after every trick cause I thought it was the ender. Jaoa doesn’t take shortcuts with his riding and does everything as proper as possible. So stoked on this one. Edited by the one and only, Matt Reyes.
FGFS Porn | Iconic & Awesome Builds Throughout the Years.
Well 2013 is almost over, and I’ve been doing some digging through old and new pictures, and came up with a solid list (In my opinion) of really beautiful Fixed Gear Freestyle builds from the past to now, in no particular order whatsoever. Let us know which builds were left out and what you think should be on here!
Lets start with Tyler Johnson’s builds.
The Leader Shadow was one of the sickest and priciest builds in 2010-11. Tyler’s specifically was real sick with the white paint drip on the seat tube. Eero’s always looked wild with fat tires too.
His first SKYLMT SL-1 with the first run of the SKYLMT bars was also a super clean build. His first 26′ build, and his legendary Skylmt Welcome part was filmed on it.
His other build was also gorgeous.
The almost murdered out Hold Fast build was also super sick.
The Gorilla Kilroy is one that needs to be featured in here for obvious reasons. One of the first true FGFS bikes, and it looked rad.
An appropriate follow-up would be the Grime Yo-Mang, the first 26′ specific FGFS frame. RIP Grime.
Gus’ Skylmt is also a sick build with Red + Chrome featuring the prototype ALTAR Burial Bars, coming soon.
Oscar’s 14 Bike Co proto 29er was no joke, and looked like it could handle anything. Too bad that one never came out.
His BB17 Serpent was a game changer also, with it’s holographic print on the frame, fork, and bars. Unfortunately there weren’t any real good pictures of just the bike, but it just had to be on here. Here’s the bike check with it.
While were on the topic of Serpents, Funny’s build is one of my favorite builds I’ve ever laid eyes on.
Kareem’s Signature Leader Pharaoh was an iconic build for sure. Cheetah print errthang.
Speaking of Seattle residents, Jacob Ruff’s old BB17 was a looker also.
Anyone notice that almost every Destroy Bike that gets built looks amazing? (Pictured: Joshua Nieves, Devin Tolman, and Nelson Bell’s)
The 29er is no exception.
Slum’s old thrashed P-Fix was a fan favorite.
Tom Lamarche’s Charge Scissor V2 looked burly as hell. There weren’t really any pictures of it that I could find.
His USA Color Scheme P-Fix was a historical build. It was his debut on 26’s and damn did it look good
Phil’s Charmer V2 builds constantly changed colors and he always managed to make them look sweet.
Here’s a random one I found on the FGFS Forum. No clue what it is but it looked pretty sick.
Antonyo’s builds were always some of my favorite.
His Proto Milwaukee always looked so sick in my opinion.
His gold Unknown build was also baller as fuck. Haha.
His current Unknown proto is also very sick as well.
Packy’s All-City Airwolf is too clean.
Mike Schmitt’s old Ghost was a sick one too.
Matt Spencer‘s builds have always been my favorite for sure. He always knows how to make em’ look good.
He was the first to run hefty 29er tires on his first Mordecai back in 2010, and it looked sick as fuck.
Then for MWM2, he decided to do a blood red color scheme, which is still one of the most unique builds to date.
He later got on Volume, and built up the sickest thrasher. Chrome and tan wall tires look very clean in my opinion.
The slime green Thrasher build was another unique one. No real pictures of that one that I could find though.
When Mr. 700c switch to 26, he built up such a clean SKYLMT.
Don Dela Cruz’s Unknown 24/7 was definitely a clean 29er build.
Sam Hanson’s old Hold Fast 29er was also very sick.
Christian Ustarroz had a custom frame built up by Nem Pro and it looked very good. The raw Grime Medicine Man bars complimented the frame very well.
Congo originally built up his old LDG Hammer with the white/blue color way. There weren’t any pictures of it, but he put a throwback paint job on his new Unknown prototype. With the USA Destroy bars, it looked even sicker.
When Corey switched to 26′ for almost literally a minute, his All-City Airwolf was a real sick build.
To round it off, Joe Mckeag’s Unknown 24/7 Prototype is my favorite build of all time. purple, tanwall tires, and chrome parts is toooooooooo clean!
Well that, in my opinion, were some of my favorite builds (That I could find online at least) throughout mostly recent years. Maybe this provoked some future build ideas for some people, Christmas is coming up so why not help support FGFS companies right?! Hope you guys enjoyed the read, and please excuse me for the lack of photo credits for every picture, hope you guys don’t mind too much.
Lookback | MWM2 COMP
This is one of my favorite competition edits to this day. So much energy.
Can’t Fool The Youth | Devon Lawson.
Parts from the 2nd edition of Can’t Fool the Youth are slowly starting to trickle on to the internet with the coming up of the 3rd edition via CHOP EM DOWN FILMS, and this one does not disappoint! Devon is easily one of the cleanest dudes in FGFS. Has his own style and so many sick tricks. Slum through this one together super nicely too, with an awesome intro haha. Don’t miss this one. Bar over the Cherry gap is ridiculous.
MATT REYES | WHEEL TALK 2013.
As soon as I saw Matt had a new edit out I got excited. There is a ridiculous amount of mind-numbing combos in here that I’m gonna watch it 20 more times after I write this to comprehend everything I just watched. Matt is a world class rider and film maker. This dude can do anything, whether it’s on a bike, behind the lens, or behind the computer, and probably much more! Stoked to call this dude my homie, cheers Matt, you’re the man!
Omar Sebai: Wheeltalk Screenshots.
Omar is now part of the Wheeltalk Youngbloods crew and an edit came out a couple weeks ago and it was fire. Here are some sweet screengrabs that Matt put out along with the edit again. I’ve watched it so many times, and its good. Every time.

OMAR KILLING IT FOR WHEELTALK! That’s my boy. Omar has progressed so much lately, and this edit shows. Always killer editing by Slum too. The song goes great.

Slum posted this Photo of me with a little writeup. Had a blast cruising around the city and staying at his pad. Matt will be putting out what I consider an Official Ride + Style edit soon. So keep posted on Wheeltalk and keep an eye out for that.
