This video from the Standard Crew’s trip from Iowa to Colorado is mostly park and street, BUT we do get around 40 seconds of dirt footage from two Colorado bike parks. Jump to the 01:17 mark to get right into it and watch Joey Cordova steez that whip!

Flashback: 1996 Standard Commercial
This twenty year old commercial that ran in The Shady Bunch is just one of the many reasons that Standard was the end all be all of BMX awesomeness in the mid-nineties!

Spotted this custom 125R that Standard did for Chris Williams over on Rick’s Facebook. That translucent teal over chrome paint job looks incredible! If it looks a bit long it’s because it is. That sucker has a 23″ top tube!
