BICYCLE UNION - BUILT FOR SPEED
When it comes to naming core BMX brands Bicycle Union should undoubtedly be amongst the top of anyone's list. With a rich history in BMX and some of the greats like Scott Malyon, Chris Doyle and Jerry Galley repping over the years you know that with Bicycle Union you get what you get, proper BMX parts from a proper BMX company.
Main man John Dye has been a well known name in UK BMX since he first got on one back in the early 80's, and he is still a highly respected member of the scene, not only being the head honcho of Bicycle Union, but running his own BMX shop 'VOLT BMX' since 2009 in London, a true rider owned rider run BMX shop.
"By just doing BMX, we can put all our heart into it." - John Dye
In recent times Bicycle Union have come out with some great media in the form of Zines and Podcasts, more commonly know as the Union Tapes. These both cover in depth history of all things BMX and get close and personal with the guys that were actually there in the Golden Era. You can find a link at the bottom of this email to the most recent one featuring none other than earlier mentioned legend Scott Malyon.
