Evolution : What do I like the most in BMX ? It is always moving forward. Year by year, the technology evolves and the new parts that come on the market are litterally crazy. If you look back to the 90's, you will be amazed how the bikes have changed in so many ways.

Style : The way riders dressed also changed a lot. Large denim shorts, big knee pads and racing style shirts have been replaced by slim-fit pants, light pads and raglan shirts.

Innovation : A few years ago, the brands begun to work a lot on the bike parts. New combinations of shapes, materials and colours, gave birth to iconic parts like pivotal seats, printed pedals and oilslick topload stems.

Riding : I asked some riders I know if they would ride aztec inspired tires and grips : they said yes !
