The Legion Ammonite Crank Set

Follow Legion Bicycles on Instagram | Website

Legion Bicycles, the parts arm of Marshal Racing, are about to release their first premium BMX Crank set. The Legion Ammonite! Forged from 7075-T6 aluminium, the crank sets will come in four versions, Junior, Expert, Master and Ultimate.

The Junior, Expert and Master variants all feature an adjustable crank length, allowing it to grow with the rider, or to evolve if the riders preference were to change. The trio of adjustable options will come with interchangeable spacers, allowing the crank length to be changed in 2.5mm increments, up to a maximum of 5mm addition length.

The Ultimate offering is aimed at advance riders. This crank set length is a fixed length architecture aimed at delivering maximum stiffness and direct power transfer.

The Details …

Junior: 150mm to 155mm adjustment, weighing in at 580g. Q-Factor 154mm.

Expert: 157.5mm to 162.5mm adjustment, weighing in at 630g. Q-Factor 158mm.

Master: 165mm to 170mm adjustment, weighing in at 690g. Q-Factor 162mm.

Ultimate: Comes in five fixed lengths, 170mm, 172.5mm, 175mm, 177.5mm, and 180 mm. The 175mm options weighs in at 730g. Q-Factor 165mm.

The spindle on all variants is a heat-treated CrMo 4130-T38 Axel.

Legion are undeniably trying to cater for everyone here, producing 8 different variants of the Ammonite crank set, and will be priced in the range of €426 / $496 TBC.

LRB Racing, the parent company, tell us the forging manufacturing process of the cranks create a stronger and stiffer product as the process ‘reorganises and compresses the material’s grain structure in the direction of mechanical loads’ … we’ll have to take their word on this.

We’re intrigued by the offering here from Legion Bicycles and appreciate the effort to add some visual design flare as well as the length adjustment, but we’re gonna hold off on a full-throated opinion until we get our hands on production samples. The renderings and 3D Printed prototypes do look interesting though …

An Ammonite Chainring will also be available (seen here in 3D Printed form). We believe it will go up to a 50 tooth.

The Legion Ammonite Crank Set is due out during November 2026.

You’ll find more info on the Legion site >> Junior to Master and Ultimate Series.

Pride Racing’s Titanium 373 Blanc Bars …

June 2026

Photos Fifteen BMX

With the advent of 31.8mm oversize handlebars the BMX racing world gained two things, well, arguably three things … stiffness, arguably strength, and weight, a significant amount of weight. Not only are the bars heavier, the oversize stems that hold them also gained weight. And to compound the issue, all that weight is up high, above the centre of gravity. Most people will shrug, but we weight parts haha … why add unnecessary weight.

The added stiffness is a huge benefit but how do you reduce this newly found weight? Materials is the obvious answer, but realistically, the only option to reduce the weight of oversize bars, for fully formed human use, is with the use of Titanium or Carbon … alloy would scare us! We’d also bet that carbon bars scare a lot of you out there, despite them being bulletproof when designed correctly. That leaves the exotic, and expensive option, TITANIUM! It’s light, stiff, and it’s still metal, so psychology strong enough for the wary.

And right on cue, Pride Racing launch the Titanium 373 Blanc Bars. Weighing in at a smidge under 550g for the 8” rise option, a lot lighter than their steel counterparts, which tip the scales in the regions of 990g.

As well as being lighter, the Titanium 373 Blanc bars are also a magnitude more beautiful and, let’s be honest, more desirable than chromoly … especially when you put Renaud Blanc’s name on them.  Pride Racing have nailed the aesthetics here, the graphics are simple and subtle, the natural matt silver-grey finish looks luxurious, the welds are beautiful and the transition from the 31.8mm diameter to the thinner grip diameter is smooth … something that some other brands have been unable to achieve, opting instead, or maybe settling, for a somewhat bulbus look.

The bars geometry, as you would guess, is inspired by #373 … and if you are not used to very straight bars there is some adjusting time required. Our transition from 6° to 3° backsweep took some getting used to. The straight bars pull you a little further forward over the front wheel, it’s definitely a more aggressive position … but after a few of hours riding, we settled in and fell in love. The bars feel snappy out of the gate, great in the air and quick to turn when needed … although we have yet to unlock the Renaud Blanc manual ability setting, but we assume that will come …

Pride Racing claim that the material is better for vibration absorption leading to less arm fatigue, but we can’t say this has ever been an issue for us so we can’t verify this claim, maybe we just need to ride a lot more.

There is a lot to like here. A significant weight saving, potentially a snappier response from the flatter geometry, and the bars just look beautiful. To finish the aesthetic, we had to pair the bars with the Pride Racing FTL Stem, which was also developed with Renaud Blanc … obviously we had to add the titanium bolts to complete the look.

If you are thinking of upgrading your bars, and you have the €400 to spend, the Pride Racing Titanium 373 Blanc Bars should definitely be on your short list … they make us smile every time we go to the track.

Supercross BMX Introduces the New 2026 ENVY RS7

Follow Supercross BMX on Instagram | YouTube

Supercross BMX Introduces the New 2026 ENVY RS7

Follow Supercross BMX on Instagram | YouTube

The 2026 Supercross Envy RS7 is the most advanced aluminium BMX race frame Supercross BMX has ever built. It’s using double heat-treated 6069-T6 alloy rather than the previous 7005, it has a T47 bottom bracket, it’s disc and V-brake compatibility, on every size. It’s stronger, tougher, and lighter with better weld-zone recovery and the same race proven geometry … and it arrives later this month!

See the frame details from Supercross BMX below:

APPLE VALLEY, CA – 20 May 2026

Why 6069, and Why It Matters:

7005 was the right call when Supercross started running it over a decade ago. It isn’t the best option anymore. 6069-T6 takes about 30 percent more force to bend and 17 percent more force to break than 7005-T6. More important: the full T-6 process — solution heat treatment, liquid quench, artificial aging — restores strength right through the weld zones after the frame is built. 7005 can only air quench, which leaves weld areas softer than the surrounding material. With 6069, the metal comes back to full strength after welding. The alloy also carries Vanadium as a grain refiner, which makes it tougher and more workable at the same time.

Lab numbers: 6069-T6 yield strength 380–414 MPa vs. 7005-T6 at 290 MPa. Tensile strength 410–448 MPa vs. 350 MPa. Better fatigue life, superior fracture toughness, and full weld-zone recovery after heat treatment — something 7005 cannot do.

T47 Bottom Bracket on Pro Sizes and Up:

Pro and larger sizes ship with a T47 bottom bracket — the same setup Supercross runs on the Vision F1 and Vision F1x carbon flagships. Larger bearing surface, full thread engagement, no creak. It’s the right call for bigger riders pulling hard out of the gate, and it puts the aluminium RS7 on the same hardware platform as the top of the Supercross line.

Disc Tab and V-Brake Mounts — Every Size, Standard:

Every 2026 RS7 — from Micro through Pro XXL 24 — ships with a welded-on disc tab and removable V-brake mounts. Run a V-brake. Run a disc. Switch when the track or rulebook calls for it. The traditional axle and chain tensioner stay exactly where BMX racers expect them. Both brake options are standard on every size, with no upgrade fee.

Same Geometry. Same Race Record:

The geometry is unchanged. The same numbers that have put riders on podiums at national and world championship level are carried straight into the 2026 frame. The metal got better. The fit stays the same. Riders upgrading from a previous RS7 will feel at home from the first gate.

Sizes and Colours:

The 2026 RS7 runs 21 sizes — Micro through Pro XXXXL in 20″, Mini through Pro XXL in 24″ Cruiser. Six launch colours: Jet Black, Gloss White, Hi Vis Yellow, Metallic Grey, Metallic Teal, and Sparkle Pink. Price is $699.95. Pre-orders are open now at supercrossbmx.com, with delivery arriving late May 2026. Specific size and colour combinations sell out within hours, the notify list gets access before the public launch.

Testing, one-two! 2026 BMX race tire rolling resistance test …

Testing, one-two! 2026 BMX race tire rolling resistance test …

We were recently invited, along with Bart de Jong of FAT BMX, to visit Schwalbe Tires in Germany who had set up testing of different brands in the BMX Race market and wanted some independent eyes on the results. Unfortunately, we were unable to make the trip this time, but Bart kindly shared his report with us, below. You can also read the report on FAT BMX.

Written by Bart de Jong / FAT BMX

Something that doesn’t happen enough is product comparisons. It gives an insight on what product is better than the other or does things differently which favors a certain rider. We got the opportunity to be part of a tire rolling resistance test in a laboratory in Germany. We couldn’t pass up seeing several BMX Race tires going through the test. How much do they expand when different pressure is applied. Will that affect the riding much, in other words, will tire pressure reduce rolling resistance? As measurements are facts, it still raises questions on performance. Will a slick tire slip on the gate? Is rubber compound something that will fix that? Does a wider tire have more grip, and does it absorb jumps better when racing with a carbon frame, forks and rims?

We put tires from the following companies through the test to get a good test result: Vee Tire, Tioga, Michelin, Maxxis, Vittoria, Schwalbe, and IRC. In fact, we tested a couple of different Tioga tires to get their results. Lower tire pressure might result in more rolling resistance, but will it necessarily be slower? Small bumps in the track surface or down the starting hill will be absorbed better when there’s not 8-bar pressure in the tire. It will also have more traction when you dive into a turn and speed out of it. How much will lower tire pressure benefit against less rolling resistance with pumped up tires that are about to explode?

Bigger wheels absorb bumps better. All tires were measured for their diameter at 6-bar. At 1597mm Tioga’s Fastr-X S-Spec 1.75 turned out to have the biggest circumference followed by Tioga’s Faster React 1.75 (1596mm) and Schwalbe’s SX_R 47-406 with 1mm less at 1595 millimeters. With each wheel rotation, bigger wheels will get you further. At 6-bar the Maxxis and Michelin tires measured in at 1553mm and 1552mm respectively.

Rolling weight matters so also the test tires were weighed without their packaging. Turns out that the heaviest tire of the nine BMX tires was the Maxxis DTH tire (430.2 grams) and Schwalbe’s SX-R came in at 293 grams which turned out the lightest of them all. So, with a front and a rear tire Maxxis will add 860.4 grams to your bike (without a tube) where Schwalbe makes your bike only 586 grams heavier. If you’re really weight conscious, every gram counts and you can save 274.4 grams if you choose between the lightest and the heaviest tire that we had in our test.

The rubber compound of each tire is different. The process there depends on the expertise of the brand, the materials used and the purpose of the tire. A heavier and thicker tire will probably prevent punctures better than a high-performance tire with a thinner rubber. Getting a flat tire because of a thorn or sharp item on the Michelin or Maxxis therefore is less likely than on a tire that uses less material. Although we did not cut every tire to see if they had a thorn prevention layer, we assume none of them have on these BMX tires as they would have on tires for city bikes for instance. We also did not test the tires on wear, so the ones with a softer compound will probably be replaced quicker than the ones where more rubber is used. So also here, there’s a consideration to be made when shopping for your next BMX tire for your race bike. The difference in width in tires between running 4-bar and 6-bar was about 0.7/0.8 mm for most. Michelin had the biggest difference with 0.9mm where the IRC Siren Pro Rise only had 4mm and the Tioga PowerBlock S-Spec expanded 0.5mm between 4 and 6-bar pressure in the tire. The tube used for all tests was an SVC 7 at 141g to keep things the same for every step along the way.

The test machine used in the lab was the Rolling Resistance apparatus. Which tire was the smoothest and had least friction. Obviously more factors come into play and each racer has their preferences, but the numbers don’t lie. The test machine supplied detailed measurements when tested at 4, 5 and 6-bar pressure in each tire. The speed that was used was 40 km/h each time, the same for every tire. The Vee Tire Speed Booster Elite 20 x 1.75 measured in at an average of 46.3 Watt. That turned out to be the tire with the most rolling resistance and was nearly double that of the winner of the test. In place 4 to 6, the Tioga tires rolled in with the Faster React getting a score of 33.9 Watts. IRC, with the help of Sam Willoughby, developed the Siren Pro Rise which got the bronze medal in the rolling resistance test with 28.8 Watts. The people at Vittoria have done their homework as they only released their BMX Race tire last year and created a fast one at 24.8 Watts. The lightest tire of them all also showed the best numbers as far as rolling resistance is concerned. The Schwalbe SX-R 47-406 is made for high performance and turned out to be the fastest tire in the tests with 23.9 Watts taken as an average over the 4-bar, 5-bar and 6-bar measurements.

Getting to see the testing done and the different numbers coming in, showed that a lot of work goes into making a good BMX tire. We only tested it on rolling resistance and not on wear, grip, compound, strength, thorn proof etc. The measurement results are listed, and you can make your own judgement. But numbers don’t lie …

The Supercross BMX Vision F1x …

Follow Supercross BMX on Instagram | YouTube

The new ‘Supercross Vision F1x’ is visually a ‘Vision F1’ but the carbon has been put on steroids! The Apple Valley outfit have upgraded the monocoque chassis from the previous T1100 KS to a cutting-edge blend of Toray M40X and M46X Carbon Fiber with Nano Alloy Resin. The new material makes the Vision F1x even lighter, stronger and more rigid, in all the right places. Supercross tell us the material upgrade is a massive jump forward in the BMX world when it comes to going fast on carbon.

The cutting-edge material does come at a cost … the Vision F1x will lighten your wallet by $2399.95 for the frame. You can preorder the frame now, on the Supercross BMX site, and then watch Kye Whyte and Oli Moran ride theirs until yours arrives. We believe the original Vision F1 will sell alongside the F1x…

See the press release from Supercross BMX below:

SUPERCROSS BMX – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Supercross BMX Launches the Vision F1x: The Intersection of Formula 1 Technology and World Championship Racing
APPLE VALLEY, CA – Supercross BMX, the 8-time Golden Crank “Bike of the Year” winner, is proud to announce the official launch of the Vision F1x. This frame represents a revolutionary evolution of the championship-proven monocoque Vision F1 and stands as the lightest, strongest, and most efficient Supercross BMX frame ever produced.

Engineering the “Launch”.
The Vision F1x is not merely an update; it is a material revolution. While building upon the world-renowned geometry of the Vision F1, Supercross engineers have integrated a proprietary blend of Toray M40x and M46x Prepreg Carbon Fiber—the same high-performance materials trusted by the Red Bull F1 Team for their chassis and utilized in critical aerospace applications.

Historically, carbon fiber engineering faced a “trade-off” problem: increasing stiffness usually meant losing durability. The F1x breaks this rule using the Torayca™ MX Series. By utilizing nano-level control of the graphite crystallite structure, the M46x fiber is approximately 20% stronger than previous high-modulus fibers while maintaining extreme rigidity.

For the racer, this translates to “The Launch.” The high-modulus fibers act as a reinforced spine, resisting lateral flex during a Pro-level gate start and ensuring 100% of the rider’s energy is transferred to the rear wheel. This “livelier” feel has already been validated on the track by elite team riders Kye Whyte and Oli Moran, who describe the bike as “jumping” forward the moment they engage.

A Record-Breaking Legacy.
This launch follows a historic milestone at the 2025 USA BMX Grand National, where the racing community voted Supercross the Golden Crank Bike of the Year for a record-breaking 8th time.

“Winning that 8th Golden Crank was a massive honor, but we aren’t the type to sit back and rest on our records,” said Bill Ryan, owner of Supercross BMX. “That recognition has only made us dig harder to ensure we are giving the BMX community the world’s best products. From the 6-bar stiffened rear ends of our early Cro-Mo days to this new F1x, our goal has always been to eliminate flex and maximize speed. The F1x is our way of saying ‘thank you’ to the riders who put us on top.”

Availability.
The Supercross BMX Vision F1x will be available in all current Vision F1 sizes and and new signature colorways through authorized Supercross BMX dealers WORLD WIDE and online at www.supercrossbmx.com.

Photos Fifteen BMX

We have been casually talking to André Neteler for quite some time about his andrenalin wheels project, and we were intrigued, but we do get a lot of people contacting us about their latest and greatest product only to find out, when you delve in, that it’s just another branded part from a Chinese catalogue. So, while we were intrigued, we also had a healthy dose of scepticism.

Then we sat down and had a couple of hours deep dive with André, where we realised these are not just another set of nice wheels, these were meticulously designed, meticulously considered and built with a purpose.  The purpose … to be extremely light, stiff, and to go fast!

André Neteler has been building wheels for years; he describes it as his passion but knew he could improve on what was available on the market. What makes André qualified to conceive of the BMX wheel evolution you might ask? Well, on top of the desire to do it, he’s an old school racer, a mechanic for the German elite nation team, and runs a sideline as a Mercedes engineer (his real job) … but what’s better than one Mercedes engineer taking on the BMX wheel conundrum? Three Mercedes engineers!  André teamed up with two of his colleagues, Tim Zanker, a prototype enginneer, and Nicholas Minsch, an aerospace engineer, who also happen to run 12eleven, a boutique carbon fiber rim company. But even with all that expertise at their disposal, they would still have to change mindsets in the BMX world, a world that may just be entrenched in the idea that you need 36, three cross spokes. That’s not the world the Mercedes engineers wanted to reside in!

From the outset the target was simple, design and build a very high-end wheelset for elite level BMX racers. A wheel with a weight in the region of 1100g, with a low rolling resistance, and as stiff as other builds on the market. Easy huh!

The team approached Heuer Radsport, a company who develops high-end track bike hubs, to help with the project. Neither Heuer Radsport or 12eleven had been in the BMX world up to this point, but after what we assume took some convincing, both enthusiastically joined the project … and they all set about the design process.

The key to the weight loss on the wheel design; besides carefully designing the carbon rims with high grade material, and a minimalist set high-end hubs … was the spokes, or rather the amount of spokes and tier length. How can you reduce the number of them and still retain stiffness and strength? You can’t just decide to go to 28 spokes on the rear wheel for a fully formed adult and cross your fingers. Every dimension on the hubs was analysed, every fraction of a millimetre was tweaked to perfection. Wider flanges are better for strength, matching the angle of the spokes on the left and the right to make them symmetrical (which is not straightforward!) increases stiffness, more material between spoke holes increases hub strength in critical areas. The level of design detail the team went to in order achieve the goal is truly impressive. If you look closely, you’ll even notice the rear rim is offset 2.5mm to get the symmetrical spokes. Details …

All the specs and technical details are impressive, but its not until you get your hands on a set of the andrenalin wheels, that you realise how beautiful the wheels are. All the details are simple, functional, designed to perfection, not embellished. Purpose over gimmick. And light, oh my god are they light! The rear wheel, a 28 spoke, 2 cross lace design, tipped our scales (without tyres or tubes) at 690g, and the front, with its visually impressive, 24 spoke radially laced design (shorter spokes, means lighter), came in at a featherweight 510g. And it’s all rotational weight!

Once on the bike, the weight saving is instantly noticeable, the bike just accelerates effortlessly. Despite the slight feeling of concern when you first put the 28 and 24 spoke wheels on a bike you are about to jump doubles on, we noticed no lack of strength or stiffness. In fact, the wheels felt stiffer than other wheels to us. We have no doubt that that is partially due to the quality of materials, and in no small part to André’s expertise in wheel building.

If you are used to the silence of the most ubiquitous hubs at the track, you’ll instantly notice the buzz from the Heuer hubs, we liked the change to be honest. You may even notice the lack of instant engagement from the rear hub, but it’s so close to instant that it’s almost a moot point. What we are sure you will notice is how smooth the ride becomes!

While we’re the first to admit that we are not even close to enacting the levels of force through the wheels, especially the rear, as an Elite rider would, we’re confident we case more jumps, and drop the front on lips during failed manuals, than any elite rider could dream of. We’ve had zero issues so far …

Elite riders have been rigorously testing the wheels for a significant amount of time though. Germany’s Philip Schaub told us, ‘I‘ve been using the Adrenalin wheel set for 1,5 years already and I love them. They are not only super light and roll smooth, but also super stiff. In many ways, the best wheelset you can get right now.’ The team at Andrenalin initially expected the wheels to last a top-level rider in the region of just one season, and way longer for the rest of us mere mortals, but Philip remarked, ‘even after 1.5 years they still feel like day one.’

Julian Schmidt, another German national team rider has also been testing the concept, ‘I really like the wheels! They are next level! Extremely light weight and at same time stiff and robust enough for elite racing.’

It’s not just Philip and Julian who have been racing with the wheels, a lot of the German team, from Aron Beck to Stefan Heil, have been running the wheels at World Cups and World Championships. You might even have seen some of the components on Swiss Olympian Cedric Butti’s bike.

What we think is key to the success here was the approach the team took. It wasn’t to design the best rim and the best hub … it was a cohesive approach, it was to design the best wheel! Everything must work together, in unison, to achieve the goal … and it does. The 12eleven rims, the Heuer Radsport hubs, the Sapim CX-Ray Spokes, the beautifully designed Heuer cog, the care in the build … they all excel together. The wheels excel! Don’t think of the reduced number of spokes, think of the endless hours of engineering, the specialist knowledge, the passion it takes to take this type of idea from paper to the bike. The result is undoubtedly impressive …

Find out more about he wheels on the Heuer Radsport site, the soon to be released 12eleven site, or get in touch with André Neteler through his andrenalin site, where he can advise what is best for you, and maybe build you your dream wheels …

Torker Racing’s Pro-X & LP Reborn …

Follow Torker on Instagram | YouTube

Legendary BMX brand, Torker Racing, are reanimating two stars from the 1980’s but with a modern twist. The Torker Pro-X and the Torker LP, as ridden by the likes of Tommy Brackens, Clint Miller and Mike Miranda, are about to hit the tracks again, with all modern geometry and Supercross BMX know-how. Read the full Torker Racing Press Release below.

Torker Racing: For Immediate Release – Apple Valley, CA

Are you ready for a 4130 chromoly race machine that can take you from the track to the trails and beyond? Let us re-introduce the infamous Torker Pro-X. Built on 50 years of Torker Racing history and refined with Supercross’ race-winning geometry, this is much more than another retro repop.

That’s right! The brand that started dominating tracks in 1976 and helped kick off the freestyle revolution with riders using their race bikes as true dual-purpose machines is back and better than ever, bringing back some of its greatest hits to help you make it to the podium in style.

It has been 40 years since BMX Action NORA Cup winners Tommy Brackens and Mike “Hollywood” Miranda scored their first pro victories aboard the Torker Pro-X, and even longer since the iconic Torker LP ruled tracks around the world. Now, in 2025, Torker is back with a vengeance.

The new TorkerRacing.com showcases the 2025 Pro-X, available in five of the most popular race sizes and featuring fully modern BMX race geometry from parent company Supercross BMX fused with the trademark Torker twin top tubes, along with an ovalized heat treated chromoly down tube, quarter inch thick laser cut dropouts, and a laser cut chromoly bottom bracket brace.

The Pro-X is ready to win races, hit the trails, or tear up the pump track, all in exclusive Torker style.

Looking for more of a retro look? The Torker LP, the frame Clint Miller rode to win the very first IBMXF-sanctioned race at the 1981 Anglo-American Challenge Invitational Championship in Redditch, England, uses the same twin top tubes and bottom bracket bracing but with a round down tube and the iconic plate gussets at the head tube for the full vintage feel while keeping the same modern geometry.

Maybe you are just dreaming of taking your Torker to ride outs and cruising with friends? We have you covered with the chromoly MX26, MX29, Barbarian, and the aluminum Diesel framesets. These big-wheel BMX bikes bring back the fun and style of your early 80s Torker while adding the size and features of a modern BMX scaled for adult riders.

So, whether you are racing, cruising, hitting the pump track, or just want something cool to show off, see everything Torker has to offer on the new torkerracing.com website or your favorite Torker Racing BMX Dealer.

And be sure to follow on the Torker Racing Instagram  and YouTube for all the latest news and updates.
