"We are super stoked to drop this edit of our South Australian ( Adelaide ) shredder Brayden Mcpharlin. Brayden’s been sitting on this edit for a good while now & along with us working along side of him developing an Australian made frame to his geo the “Sword Killer” we felt it was time to drop this edit now leading into the phase of the frame project." - TEMPERED

- In the men's BMX Flatland final at the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships in Glasgow, Scotland, Frenchman Dandois claimed bronze with a score of 88 that put him behind the clear champion Yu Shoji (94.16) and his Japanese compatriot Hayakawa (91.16) in silver as Spanish BMX veteran Jorge 'Viki' Gómez finished back in eighth place at the age of 42.
- The X Games on home soil in Chiba in 2022 was the 21-year-old Hayakawa from Nagaoka City's coming out event globally and he stuck to the formula later in the year at FISE Montpellier to top the world again.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
