A day in the life with BMX rider Nigel Sylvester.

Swedish footwear label Jim Rickey worked with Scandinavian bike makers Sson on a collaborative BMX cruiser. Having previously worked with Caliroots and Parra on custom cycles, Sson took their steel-framed 016 bike and outfitted it with gold and white Jim Rickey details. “Think of it as the biggest possible BMX that you have seen and one that will get you to the afterparty in no time at all. After the afterparty it’s the after afterparty somewhere, hosted by Jim Rickey.” Only 10 pieces were produced and will be sold starting October 15, 2009 through the top Jim Rickey shops in Europe and Asia.

We get a first look at the upcoming SE Bikes 2010 OM Flyer $100 Bill Wrap.

“SE has just released some pics of their super rad 2010 OM Flyer $100 Bill Wrap. The newest incarnation of this retro frame bike is clearly meant to stimulate your personal economy through the “mind on my money / money on my mind” philosophy it embodies, although it’s gonna cost you eight $100 bills to get one.”

More info and pics of the bike follow here.

This season Carhartt got together with renowned bike brand WeThePeople to collaborate on a limited edition 24″ BMX Cruiser. Taking inspiration from the 80s, the frame of the bike is all the latest technology. The BMX Cruiser is delivered with many special features like: Original Skyway Tuff Wheels, Carhartt “BLVD” Grips, salt attachment parts, a 3-piece crank and a leather seat and tube pad. The clean white design in combination with the brown leather details came out really nice. The Cruiser is now available at all Carhartt Stores.

The Hundreds will soon be relaunching their website in a new look and with new features. Before the relaunch we get a first look at their upcoming collaboration with SE Racing on a 26″ BMX PK Ripper. Something to look out for!

Yesterday we presented to you the upcoming Carhartt x Krink Marker Set. Here now a look at the new Carhartt BMX Cruiser. Not being the first bike to come from Carhartt, the new BMX Cruiser has once again been developed by Wethepeople for Carhartt.

The bike comes with an original Cr-Mo frame, skyway tuff wheels, Carhartt BLVD grips, 3-piece crank, leather seat and toptube pad and is released in a limited edition series.

Look out for these at Carhartt retailers around the globe.

We came across an excellent commercial of the new BMW Z4 roadster. Artist Robin Rhode created a giant canvas, on which he applied the paint with the actual BMW Z4. Not only is the idea great, the outcome is as well. Via 5×5.

BMX centered Shadow Conspiracy launches their holiday 2008 collection next week. The offerings include many of the basics — thermals, crews, zip hoodies and caps. Among the more interesting items is the mesh backed hat, with embossed foam front. Graphically, typography leads the charge. As you may expect greys and blacks dominate the color schemes. The collection is complemented by The Shadow Conspiracy’s newest team DVD, which drops on December 12, 2008.

Check out selections from The Shadow Conspiracy Holiday 2008 after the jump.

Our friend Olivier pointed out the recently released Levi’s BMX video, featuring some of the most talented riders in the scene. The video is very strong and could be one of action sports best this year. Check it out!
