It’s time for an update on my BMX whip! A lot has evolved on my bike since the last bike check, about nine months ago. So, we figured it was the perfect moment to give you a fresh look at the current setup.
The Fit Benny L frame has been an absolute tank these past few years. Seriously, this thing is still going strong! I’m a firm believer in the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” mentality, so I only really swap parts out when they’re completely done for. Sure, it’s got its fair share of battle scars and scratches – but hey, that’s what happens when you ride street. If it was pristine, I wouldn’t be doing it right!
Massive shoutout to my mate Lee Tuck from Come Alive Digital. He’s a seriously talented photographer and videographer. I managed to rope him in on a freezing winter evening to snap some killer shots of my bike. We wanted a cool urban vibe for the photos, and Lee knew this awesome graffiti spot near The Sage in Gateshead that was perfect.
