Adam Livesley is a good friend of ours, a very talented photographer and also has an incredibly dialled-in setup. I noticed that he’d posted a photo of his bike that he’d taken in his front street and absolutely fell in love with the look of his new Haro Lineage.

One of my favourite setups of the feature, purely because I fuckin’ love black bikes. This stealth weapon belongs to Glenn Collier and the Subrosa Diablous frame has been done good justice by keeping everything looking as dark as possible. The Devil would be pleased mwuahaha!

From dark to light now… We’ve got a beaut of a build sent in by Lewis Gulliver. His Kink SXTN was sent in a little while back and he posted the first photo you see above. Then he got a few new parts and send us the second image, so I thought I’d play a game of spot the difference with you lot… What’s new?

Street tough BSD Passenger up next from Anton Spielhaus. For me it’s a combination of the raw frame effect with bits of paint left and those Cult x Vans tyres just make any bike look awesome, love those checkered sidewalls man! Looks well tidy.

Haven’t seen many Fly Tierra’s about and liked the look of this one sent over by Ryan Lee Worrall. Maybe it was the shade of blue that attracted me to it since it’s pretty similar to the ALVX I’m running. To me this is pretty decent, few S&M and ODSY bits on there, maybe a few little bits upgrading it’s definitely got potential!

Fair play to Paul Young, we can’t all afford shiny new expensive parts. Top spec bikes cost a lot of money but Paul has built up a pretty decent low budget setup. I think it looks tidy and deserves a feature. Many of us started off with a proper shit bike and over the years you just upgrade parts, go on my son!

Forks – Stock united forks

Mike Griffin is one of our regulars on the RideUKBMX Group and has been a Ride fan for many years now. He’s been rocking the legendary FBM Angel of Death frame for a little while now and it looks the tits with the rest of his parts, it seems he’s as stuck in the 90’s as I am! Love it Mike. So good.
