Tore got the very first Speedco XXXL and is liking it very much. BMX Athletes have been looking for longer frames so an XXXL isn't even weird. But when there's a need for more room up front, it's easier said than done when it comes down to carbon frames. These molds don't come cheap and how big is the market for them? Anyway, no complaints from Navrestad's side, he's got one.

Moore Large would like to inform that after over 24 years they will no longer be distributing Haro Bikes in the UK and Ireland. Changes in the Haro Bikes organisation have lead them to take a different route to market for MY19 product year and beyond. Moore Large first signed the Haro brand for distribution back in 1994 and have not only supplied the market with the product but also consistently supported athletes, events and races in both the freestyle and race categories of the sport.
BMX has been and continues to be a big part of Moore Large’s heritage. Many past and present employees have ridden, still ride or now have the pleasure of seeing their kids ride BMX.

The Vans BMX Pro Cup is a competition series that travels around the world to amazing skateparks to have the best BMX skatepark riders a chance to compete against each other to see who the best rider really is! This event is the first of four events and it was at a skatepark in Sydney Australia! The best BMX riders competed both girls and the men and they did some of the greatest bowl riding we have ever seen and the accomplished some of the highest airs and most amazing tricks as well! My little brother competed as a wildcard competitor and he made the finals and qualified to earn his spot on the tour! This was the best BMX bowl contest ever and I was so glad to be a part of it!

Nach einem jahrzehntelangen hallenlosen Hiatus der Frankfurter BMX-Szene kam Anfang des Jahres die Chance, die alte Mercedes-Niederlassung im Ostend mit Rampen auszustatten. Dank fleißiger DIY-Zusammenführung von Paletten und sonstigem Holz sowie der selbstlosen Leihgabe der Deepend-Shopstacles stand von Januar an ein trockenes Refugium für FFMs Rollsportler zur Verfügung.
