Bike maintenance with Jim Bauer

Ride BMX has a couple video how-to’s with Mr. Jim Bauer. The first one is how-to install a bottom bracket and the other one is for our Odyssey Twombolts (embedded after the jump). If you’re looking for a printable version, click HERE.

Oh and if you want to get a little bit more info about that Terry Adams cover shoot we posted yesterday, there’s a Q&A over at the ESPN site.

So we didn’t make it, huh?

Heath Pinter’s trail jam photos

Heath Pinter’s annual trail jam happened this past weekend and the place was packed with plenty of bikes, Rockstar drinks, free tacos and massive sets of tan, voluptuous doubles. Heath keeps his trails pretty dialed and it’s cool that he and Lonnie Paxton are down to open them up and hold jams for everyone to enjoy. Hit up the internet jump for pictures of real jumps and plenty of Chase Hawk.

EDIT: There’s a video from BNQT in there now, too!

Jim Bauer and Aaron Ross have wallpapers up at RideBMX.com

JC just uploaded his section from Parts over at the Sunday site. If you head over there, you can get more info about this video and even download .mp4/.mov formats. Also, if you visit RideBMX.com, you can download a couple wallpapers featuring Jim Bauer and Aaron Ross.

Some things on the internet

First, The Big Big BMX Show #6 is up at Vital BMX and in it, you can catch Jim Bauer, McGoo and Chris Moeller discussing CPSC testing and helmet use.

Second, our Twitter page is constantly being updated. You’ll see things on there not found anywhere else, such as Matt Beringer’s custom made guard for the Ratchet. We even recently put up a quick contest in there to win Ribcage rims and Tanwalls tires! Subscribe to the feed and keep checking the tweets.

Third, we have a few backgrounds floating around that you can use for your MySpace, Vital, blog or whatever websites you might have going on. Hit up the jump to check those out.

In the stands

This is a little late but it’s something we’re going to start doing each time we get a new issue in the mail. If you hit up the jump, you’ll find a mini table of contents highlighting Odyssey related pages in the magazines. First up is the latest issues of Dig and Ride (US). I believe we have a Ride UK and Cream floating around in the office somewhere but I’m having trouble tracking them down.
