2. DigBmx
After reading these two copies of the bmx
magazine dig magazines I have cultivated from
the depths of it that there isn't really a guide
of how to start riding and whilst it has
interviews with Tyler Fernengel, Anthony Perrin,
Stevie Churchill and Alex Donnachie speak on
their past and how they started and from this it
made me think how I can help shape the next
generation in bmx with the guidance of the
booklet that I am to make which will likely
help.
3. MAtthiasDandoisBUildingHisNewframe
In this video French Proffesional
Rider Matthias Dandois puts together
a new bike. He starts off by getting
a new frame, his signature La
Bastille frame from Haro, he talks
about how to put everything together
with bearings and the essential and
basic information to build up your
bike.
4. Howtobuildabmxbike
In this two part video an inexperienced kid
tries to show youtube how to build a bike and in
the process he doesn't do it properly as he
should because he is still inexperienced in bmx
and his choice of products that he has used on
his bike is questionable, this video has almost
400,000 views on youtube so if all of them built
a bike they all would be built using this guide
and they would all end up being built wrong but
regardless from this I have learnt that it needs
to be properly assembled and have gained some
choices and opinions of products.
