  • I have been building up my dream mid school BMX bike for the past year and it is looking amazing! In todays video I got a new part to put on it and I also decided to share with you all the inspiration for building up this bike by going over Rick Moliterno's section in the 2000 video "Standard Country" Rick has always been one of the best to ever do it and I. have been a big fan since I was a kid!

    Great video Scotty! Rick is still shredding. I have the second part in standard country. Haven’t seen it in almost 20 years. Those clips brought back memories.

    Old guy here. Standards were my absolute favorite in that time frame. Rick is still shredding and in my opinion, still building some of the best frames in bmx. I've ridden a few modern models in the past 10 years. The 250L is perfection.

    Great memories! Watching Rick ride Rampage skatepark back then was always a great time. Never got old watching all of his unique nose tricks dropping back in fakie revert. Extremely talented and humble dude!

    Scotty is in his happy place. He was definitely getting nostalgic feelings with those grips, you could see it in his face. It's truly amazing what you see in old BMX videos. The riding that those guys pulled off led to all the design tweaks you see in modern bikes. Never forget the roots. Awesome stuff Scotty.

    You should go more into depth how box has changed, especially on the competitive side. Like finding some old AFA parts where it was flatland, 8 foot x8foot quarter pipe with a wedge ramp. I remember my dad taking me and the crew down to Austin, TX to see a few comps. I loved watch Molinterno, Scotty Freeman, Mike Dominguez… man or maybe some where r they now. Crazy stuff. Thanks for all you do to keep BMX alive.

    Rick Moliterno is a serious legend. I had iron cross grips back in the day and eventually even had a pair of your signature grips from Duo, I had a few different pairs from them but have only used Odi Longnecks for the last 15 years or so.

    Such a cool bike, I had a similar idea a while back but with computers, I saw an super old video card on marketplace new in box, and I was thinking how nostalgic it would be to build a "new" computer from the 90s or early 2000s.
    Anyway, love seeing stuff like this, the smile on Scotty's face is golden.

  • @Sunspot-19

    Scotty, I remember rolling in with my first gen DB... Right into Mom's bathroom!! Snagged her AquaNet can and sprayed the inside of my nice new Oakley grips and slid em on. Mom was perplexed at the move! Next time that little buddy of mine needed new grips, a razor blade was required. At that point in my love for BMX, all I rode was natural. my bike had allergies to tarmac and concrete!! Today, I ride a stock comp trials bike or my RSD Middlechild. Crown Park, El Jebel, Colorado is one of the tracks I take the Middlechild on and race my friends. Singlespeeds only!

    Rick is such a talented rider and overall nice dude in person. He is a rather good size guy as well more so then ol Husky Nation lead founder Spencer but you'd never know woth what he can do on a bike that those in better physical shape can't. Always said would be crazy had he gotten in great shape and lost some heft how much better he'd be.

I'll always Remember the Good ol days riding bikes Skate boards, got to ride with some pro bikers in S.A. and watching Scotty rip it with the most insane New tricks never seen or done in the comps Respect...always watching with my brothers on Tv.. kept out of trouble most of the Time..

  • @xpndblhero5170

    This is one of my favorite videos ever, I still watch it but I have to bust out the VCR to watch it.... Yeah I know, I'm old. 😂
    O yeah and if you are interested, I have a gray and black Primo Hemorrhoid seat that would fit this bike a lot better... 😁👍
    Edit: Please watch all of Standard Country, it's such an awesome video and I feel like a lot of kids will never see it unless someone puts it in a video... There are so many good riders and tricks in this video, IMO it's still a banger to this day. I feel only pride in my generation of riders.... 😊👏👏

    Thanks for bring this to my attention scotty. I always was and still am heavily in to riding street so I would mainly watch the gonz section in this video. I never fully appreciated ricks stuff. I’d love to see you do a video on the gonz. He truly was a pioneer in street riding. I took my brakes off in 2000 because of him. Even Edwin delarosa had him down as an inspiration. The guy was an enigma. He was weird as hell but that also came out in his riding making him so original. I doubt many street riders these days know what he done to shape how we ride today.

    I wish i would habe kept more of my old parts as a kid. I still have my highly modified S&M dirt jumper frame. Once butted tubing and better quality/highly CNC'd aluminum parts came out, it seems like things haven't changed a whole lot aside from bigger bars and better freecoasters. My two 15 year old parts bmx bikes look and feel pretty similar to whats out there today. Of course i stopped riding them super hard a long time ago so they're still in decent shape.

Some of the best riders ever, Corey Bohan, Ryan Guettlar, Colin Mackay, Dave dilleward, Nick Cooper and Mykel Perko Perkins are just a few of the boys. It's midschool as heck it's grimy the jumps are big and rough, the vert ramp was old and sketchy but guys were still destroying it.

    I pour 91% alcohol into the grip, swirl it around an the grip slides right on.
    To adjust, I slide the rubber-coated t-handle from a tiny Allen wrench between the bar/grip and add a splash of alcohol. Twist it where you want it to stay and walk away. No residue. Same process for removal. They slide in and out like a lady that's really ready for you.
