SELFSTRAN:
Making up a Video

The second installment of Erik Elstran’s self-filmed #Selfstran series is live and playing now. In case you missed it, make sure to check out Erik’s first Selfstran: Hometown Quarantimes.

I spent the second half of 2020 just going around by myself, ‘making up a video.’ Having this project gave me an intention to challenge myself in ways I wouldnā€™t normally and helped me stay sane.

Erik rides the Nightshift

Available now in Sapphire Blue.

The Nightshift is 100% 4130 chromoly throughout, features super tough 41-Thermal heat-treating and comes with the proven Lifetime Warranty against bending, cracking and breaking.

You’ll find lots of design features on the Nightshift that are comparable to the top-of-the-line Soundwave, but this frame is built using traditional round tubing with unique internal gusseting for added strength.

Might as Well

ā€œImagine not having to worry about a job, errands, alarms, going to school, or any responsibility really. Within these two months filming with Jerry and Brett, thatā€™s how it was. Covid put everything on lock down so we took that as a pass on all the street we wanted. We grabbed my VX2100, hopped in any car and sent it, and holy hell was it fun. Thereā€™s nothing like being out with your boys and shooting the shit while filming on some solid setups. Hope you guys enjoy.ā€

Introducing Broc Raiford’s signature Darkwave Frame
Available Now

New for 2020 is Broc Raiford’s signature Darkwave Frame in Matte Dusk Fade and Matte Raw. Both colorways also come with Broc’s new signature decals.

The Darkwave is not only 100% built out of 4130 chromoly, but it also features Sunday’s signature dent-resistant wave down tube to give riders a little extra peace of mind when things don’t go according to plan. It stays looking clean with refined details like an integrated seat clamp, tapered stays, and integrated chain tensioners. Removable brake hardware and gyro tabs are also available when you need them and disappear when you don’t.

Brocā€™s preference in geometry gave the Darkwave a 75.25Ā° head tube angle for keeping the front end responsive, and a slammed 13.25ā€ chainstay combined with a 9.25ā€ standover to give it the proper balance of pop and stability.

All this makes the Darkwave an affordable and versatile signature frame that’s designed to handle Broc’s 4 foot high bunnyhops, massive drops, and all the tech combos in between.

Features

  • 100% 4130 chromoly frame
  • Broc Raiford signature geometry.
  • Removable U-brake hardware and Gyro tabs
  • Integrated seat clamp
  • Wave Down Tube:
    Down tube dents are common with the competitor’s frames and they significantly weaken the front end of your bike. The double-butted, 1.45″ diameter down-tube feature Sunday’s proven Wave shaping to fight denting against contact made from a rail, ledge, coping and whatever else happens to get thrown at it.
  • Butted Seat Tube & Miter Cut Top Tube:
    The seat tube is where all three triangles of the frame meet and it is crucial to keep this junction strong.
  • Tapered Chain & Seat Stays:
    Both chain and seat stays taper to provide a refined and clean look to the frame while still providing strength. They are both angled on the inside for improved chain clearance and weight savings.
  • Hollow Dropouts with Chain Tensioners:
    Hollow 8mm wide dropouts are as light as a solid 5mm dropout, but over twice as strong. There is a small internal chain tensioner to hold the wheel in position and to simplify wheel removal.

Geometry

Top Tube Lengths: 20.75″, 21″, or 21.25″
Head Tube Angle: 75.25Ā°
Seat Tube Angle: 71Ā°
Chainstay Length: 13.25-13.5″
Bottom Bracket Height: 11.75″
Standover: 9.25″
Tire Clearance: 2.4ā€
Head Tube Length: 5.1ā€

SELFSTRAN:
Hometown Quarantimes

Over the years I have spent a decent amount of time riding by myself. BMX is all about the community and sharing the experience with friends, however, riding by yourself provides a different kind of satisfaction. I personally like a balance between the two. While riding solo you have complete control of when/what to ride, and for how long you may want to try one thing. Sure, traveling and exploring new territory is always rad but there is also something to be said about riding familiar terrain and seeing new potential in old spots. Like unlocking new levels in a video game, the more tricks, confidence, and bike control you obtain, the more options you have at a spot.

This quarantine has been a strange time for just about everyone. I’m grateful I was able to spend the onset of it riding a bike (one of the best things you can do for your mental health) at spots I grew up with. Take care of yourself (stran) y’all!
