If you don't buy this copy of SOUL BMX magazine, you're missing out. It comes with the The HUNT DVD which is a must see, if you haven't already. Let's imagine you pay for the DVD, and get the mag for free. #77 comes with the Compression Trip, a dirt crew gets on the road and took Chris Doyle with them. It got Doyle on the cover of the mag. Fly Bikes (Ruben, Kalkoff, Matt Roe, and Lantschner) and FIT UK (Lewis, Clegg, Bengo, Florent Soulas and Benson) went on a road trip and Soul tells you about what happened on the trips. JB Peytavit went to the Riviera with a couple of your riders who won a contest. SOULBMX went to The Lake contest and also the Kill The Line dirt event. Expect reports in #77. Nicolas Badet gets interviewed, Anthony Perrin's bike gets checked, spots get checked, products get reviewed, etc. The mag is written in French but the DVD doesn't need any translation.

The GT Performer is the longest running name for a BMX freestyle bike. It all started when Eddie Fiola slowly unveiled the frame through print ads in the magazine. The curved downtube at the fork took care of the clearance, the standing platform helped with some of the tricks. Both items are gone now, but you get a lot more bike for the buck on the 2013 model.
-Frame: 2013 GT Street Design S/S, Cr-Mo Main tubes (H/T, T/T, D/T), DT Gussett, MID BB , Seat Stay Mounted U-Brake,

Haro's complete bikes are dialled. The 400.1 series for 2013 are looking really good. Available in two colours. Which one do you prefer? Once you've made that decision you can look at the spec sheet, see what geometry it has and how much this complete bike will cost you. Read on.
