GLORY. REDEMPTION. BIKE DANCING.
With a storyline that seems channeled directly from a 14-yr old boy’s right cerebral cortex onto the 8-plex cinema screen (and then to laserdisc!), 1986′s RAD will ignite any latent BMX fantasies that may have been supplanted by Wi games and other modern sports. Pitting Bill Allen’s version of a small town cycling natural against factory rider (and olympian gymnastic) Bart Conner’s entitled variation of The Best Rider In the World, with a little Lori Loughlin thrown in for romantic interest (and one helluva bike dancing scene), RAD is the last cinematic word on classic BMX stunt action.

CRUTCH
We’re rather taken with this simple and clever design allowing you to easily convert any hard surface of 24-30mm thickness into an impromptu table. Compliments of Swiss designer Nicola Stäubli. Her work is is worth a look.
