Crandall and Creson taking advantage of the fact that it’s the first official day of winter and their still able to rip the trails on their Steadfast.
If you’re looking for a quality US made frame and fork for your little one then look no further than FBM’s new Hala-FAST frames. Originally custom creatings for Halahan brothers, these scaled down Steadfast frames and CB4K’s are now available for anyone looking for a kickass 18″ or 20″ wheel frame and fork for their youngster… or if you’re Dunny, you’ll probably get one for yourself. Pre-orders for them are open through October and they are expected to ship early December. Just in time for Christmas! Specs after the jump.
The Friday the 13th weekend is looking to be a busy one filled with all sorts of stuff to get into. The annual Halloween Jams at Catty and Posh will be going on in PA, and down south in Richmond, Virginia FBM has a full weekend of activities planned. Starting on the night of Friday the 13th there will be a party at Wonderland with live bands. Saturday they’re having a vintage bike show and bring your own ramp jam at Powers Bike Shop that will feature the Ghetto King of Vert high air/best trick contest judged by none other than Mat Hoffman himself. Saturday night’s festivities are a surprise, but if you survive through them to Sunday there will be a chill session at Gillies Creek Trails!
Hot on the heals of their new 2017 Steadfast frames dropping, FBM just released these fine looking Steadfast Badge shirts to accompany them. Have yourself $24.99 ready to go and then head over to the FBM Store to get one!
Sorry I’ve been MIA for the past week! Let’s get back into the swing of things with FBM’s raw edit from The Battle of Gillies Creek. You’ve probably seen it already but I wanted to get it posted up anyway. It was nothing but good times down there, and the rain held off until late afternoon before flooding the place out. I already can’t wait till next year!
Or you can wait for the production versions to drop, BUT if you want things like 3/8″ dropout slots, integrated seat clamps, gyro tab holes or seatstay brake mounts, those are only available if you pre-order. This year’s colors are clear, tractor green and trans brown, and the 2017 Steadfast frames should be shipping mid-June. Look below for the 2017 specs (production versions) and click HERE to get your pre-order on!
This totally wasn’t planned but it looks like we’re going straight from the OG generation of the Pittsburgh trails scene straight into the youngest! It’s been awesome watching the Halahans grow over the years into the rippers that they are today. I’m stoked that Mike (their dad) has been keeping them on the right track by instilling in them that it’s not just all about riding, but also about putting in work to dig and create their own trails. 9 Acres is what their calling the spot they’ve built, and Geo Jenkins put together this edit for FBM of the Halahan brothers and some friends ripping both it and Monroeville.
I may be a little bit biased, but in my opinion as far as BMX bikes go, trail riders have the best looking setups. For the most part you won’t find any of those quirky parts and color schemes that are often popular with our brethren who ride street and park exclusively. What you will find are bikes that tend to have a classic look and parts selection that just screams go fast and pull the fuck up. Jackson Allen’s latest FBM Steadfast build definitely fits that mold, and with the help of our friend Brian Barnhart we caught up with him to find out more about his current ride.
