Federal BMX is pleased to announce a series of limited edition collaboration seats with contemporary street artists. Both BMX street riding and graffiti share similar terrain and a desire to do something unique in an everyday environment, often expressing creativity illegally and against the constraints of time. This synergy combined with a mutual appreciation of each other’s skill and dedication meant this felt like the perfect partnership.
For the second seat in our current campaign we’ve teamed up with Aroe. If you’re not already familiar with Aroe, he’s an infamous graffiti artist from Brighton who has travelled the world creating freehand art pieces. His work can be viewed in his hardback book “Results not excuses” as well as on his Instagram @aroe_heavyartillery.
-Limited to 150
-Pivotal Stealth System only

With the amount of sunny and joyful videos you get from any part of Spain, here is one made of blood, sweat and attitude. Kristaps got robbed during his way to Malaga and was left with a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Sorted out by the KINK team manager Jay Roe with some fresh softgoods, Kristaps continued to crush all the spots on his way one by one - just like a man on a mission.
My 2017. With only two flat tires in 2017 it gives an indication of how smooth Jeremy Malott really is. Being on the road riding BMX with his mates is what Jeremy lives for. 2017 was good. How good? Read below as he gives some feedback on his special year.
Name: Jeremy Malott
Hometown: Lake Havasu city, USA.
Sponsors: Monster, Hyper, Snafu, Unit, Triple8, Fist
Do you remember the first BMX event you went to this year and how did it go?
Jeremy Malott: The first event I went to this year was the Triples event in Anaheim and it was actually my first time ever riding dirt so it was awesome to adapt to it, I’m looking forward to the events next year!
How many weekends/days were you away from home and at a BMX jam/contest or on tour?
Jeremy Malott: I was away at least 2 times every month and the trips lasted about a week or so each so I was definitely on the go!
What was the best event you went to this year that gets your vote?
BMX RACE BEST OF INSTAGRAM #29.
The Ciao Crew and Marie Jade mans combined forces in Alsace and collaborated on this promo video and a new sweatshirt. Needless to say with these guys, expect effortless style and street gems. That alleyoop downwhip was butter! "We are still in production of the “NO FUTURE” DVD. During our trip to Strasbourg the Ciao Crew met us and as we’ve had the idea for a Collaboration for a long time, we though it was the perfect occasion to make it real. So we did the design of the sweatshirt at diner time on a piece of paper and started to film for this edit. We choose this location because Alsace is the most German part of France." - Alex Valentino / Marie Jade
Eine Woche lang haben wir mit unseren Teilnehmern einige der besten Spots am und um den Bodensee befahren! Auch 2018 planen wir wieder 2 Camp - Termine.
Dan Conway goes all in for his ender section in GT's "Seriously Fun". Dan took some diggers while filming this section, but all those big rails, kinkers, hubbas, and ledge/rails stand no match for this savage.
Really psyched on this one. Head over to Ridepabmx.com and Theyea.com after the jump and checkout the scene. After getting broke off, 3 flat tires and a little bit of blood, Shilo powered through that last clip after coming back to it for several months. As usual though, ridiculously huge rails, kinkers, and a classic style wrap this one up for another banger of a video for Shilo.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
