Founder and owner of Hutch Bicycles. Rich Hutchins was a huge innovator for the sport of BMX. The quality and craftsmanship were second to none. Rich brought space-age materials such as magnesium and titanium to a new level. Hutch Bicycles set many of the "color" trends in the eighties with colors such as pink and lavender on framesets. He had an eye for the talent on the east coast and took his powerful Hutch squad to the first-ever ABA National #1 Factory Team in 1986. The Hutch squad also won its fair share of BMXA`s Nora Cup titles. Taking home the Nora Cups in 1984 and 1985. Richard Hutchins is retired now and rumored to own several IHOP`s across the U.S.

The only thing wrong with this video is it should be at least 5 hours longer !!!!!!!
THANK YOU for this wonderful upload !
Thanks for all the memories HUTCH. I still have my chrome Pro Racer from nearly 40yrs ago. What a time to be a kid.
I still have my hutch expert precereal nineteen eighty two turned into a complete pro star crazy right
I had Hutch everything in the early 1980s busted two frames two sets of handlebars and two forks raced 17 / expert and Timmy judge was my hero and I was just as radical!!!!
I had a Hutch trick star then my parents brought me a GT profreestyl tour team model. I miss my BMX days
I broke two sets of Hutch bars before finally swapping them for GT. The Hutch bars were noticeably lighter but just seemed more fragile. Never cracked my Hutch frame or forks.
Rumour has it someone slipped a Hutch bear trap onto their shins in the 80's....still bleeding yet....
being from baltimore i have a hutch trick star stolen off the line before the platform was added on and no chrome applied yet.. rode it through the 80's and its hanging in my basement right now..
I have done that right at the starting gate those thing went right through my JT pads 😭
@@akira4085 for sure 46 years old and stil have scares from my teens from it..
@@theabhominal8131 Lol they will all ways be remembered for those cages
@@akira4085 for sure but i wouldn't change a think being from Baltimore hutch was a big part of my childhood
I rode a Hutch Trick Star frame & forks in the late 80s for a while... the geometry felt amazing!!
HUTCH is the All-Star! Thanks for the video, still the best!
Still have my pro raider and trickstar.
MAN !!!!!!!! I have been looking for this video for YEARS now, and I just found it.
I recorded it to VHS from TV back in the day. Obviously that video is long gone now. So great to find it. Thank you for posting it.
Once again you guys posted a rad video.. can't get enough of this old-school stuff. Lived it. Love it. Thanks for posting.
I had a 1984 Hutch Pro Raider, loved that bike! I now ride a 29 inch GT pro series. I wanted a 29 inch Hutch but that is a lot of money!
I'm from Brazil, and I remember the first time I saw a Hutch here, I think it was a Pro Star. Till this day my brain spins with that image.
The Trickstar at the time, was the most expensive freestyling frame and fork you can buy.
I had a hutch pro racer in 1984 best bike I ever rode on the track brings back memories 😎👍
Hutch was always top notch!
F’n A dude! Hutch Trickstar was my favorite bike in the 80’s. I liked my HARO and my GT but I loved my Hutch!
Loved my Hollywood. I raced that bike for years.
Haha I have a friend who used to travel with my family to motocross races. One day we were talking about bikes and I mentioned Hutch. He casually said "Yeah, that was my Dad". His name was also Rich and he said he and his brothers were constant testers for their dad. He is a really good mx'er too.
I had a Pro Racer. Hutch and Race Inc. were the best bikes ever made! 👍🏻
I have a hutch expert sitting in my living room here in san francisco california turned into a pro star
That 2-N-1 adapter is phenomenal, it really works. Zero flex on the bars. They sell for a fortune now, but I'll keep mine on my bike, because there is no other product available to replace it.
I had two Pro Racers, one in Chrome and one in Black. So light and durable. The Black one was my first and I was robbed at gunpoint, the thief got my wallet and my Hutch. My Dad's homeowners insurance bought me a new one in Chrome. That one was more tricked out since I knew more about what I wanted. I sold it to raise money for my first car. I'd love to have it now, even at 58 years old!
We all live with that regret. Last bike I had was Profile champ pro let it go for nothing.
@Bat Masterson I know I sold a hutch trick star back in 1998 for 300 dollars, on ebay now omg!!!!
How long ago did you get robbed? If you don't mind me asking. Was this in the 80s when you got your hutch? Taken from you and where did this happen in what state crazy
Wish this mentioned through an add on @ the end what happened to them. I’m 51 now & had a trickstar with white tuff 2’s. I was bike shopping for my 9 year old & wanted to get a new one & I can’t. So he got a PK Ripper & his big brother got a quad angle SE bikes. Hutch bikes are around on EBay & way too expensive. I loved the hell out of mine. 80’s bikes still state of the art.
Will Dearborn : That’s great! Im 52 and got my son a cult juvenile.Got my self a big ripper hahaha: Ok just looked up Hutch ;man we should’ve saved our old bikes!! Wed be rich!!
What a great blast from the past. I miss my child hood bmx/freestyle days. I have so many great memories of great bikes I was able to own or ride - hutch, gt, pk, haro, free agent, elf, redline, skyway -- they sure don't make bikes like they used to - I miss the CHROME bikes. And the electric pink and blue GT bikes... Its really a shame so many companies refuse to build them like they did in the 80s and 90s --
I still have my '82 pre-serial number Pro-Racer...
amazing
Way ahead of its time
I had the Hutch Pro Star with landing gear forks! was the best of the best!loved that bike
I didn't know anybody who could afford a Hutch back then, not even the pedals.
Maybe the Doughnut Seat Clamp Maybe ....
Got mine secondhand back in 86ish.
Brilliant , thanks for posting Andy. Rip "Mr Hutch"
Hutch bear traps……my shins salute you!

I had an Expert series Hutch, pre-serial number days. That was the last BMX bike I ever owned, mostly because I had no need to get something different. Takagi 175mm crank, 44/16 gearing, Araya rims, DK neck, Powerlite handlerbars (I really miss those), but NO bear trap pedals. I saw someone eat it once with those, no thanks. Loved my bike! Even took it lake jumping, trail riding in Oregon, and raced ABA, and NBL for a few years. Zero cracks, and took a lot of abuse. Great bike!
So where is your hutch now in Oregon? Or did you donate it or did you completely get rid of it? Because I had a hutch trick star. That I bought for nineteen ninety three in houston, texas for 3 hundred dollars and then almost gave it away in 1996, I was so mad now, wish I still had it, it was gone when I arrived moving to San Francisco in 96
What's your expert a little shorter than a regular hutch pro? Racer correct
Was ur
@@jasontomica8938 I didn't know there was a difference between the two. I assumed a Pro series just had more Hutch items (3 piece cranks, beartraps, etc.).
Edit: didn't see you're other question. Mine got stolen shortly after high school.
@@futzpahmine too 🥲
I didn't know Martin Aparijo was on Hutch! I knew him and Woody were friends but never knew he was also riding for them.
I always thought he was either Torker or GT when Woody was on Hutch...
He is GT.... I guess he switched up after HUTCH, cause he looked like 12 in this clip...
Hutch is #1
I had a pink Hutch Hollywood. The paint jobs were nice! Always wanted a Trickster though.
does anyone remember the hutch "bear trap" pedals? I had a pair... not very friendly to your shins lol, but amazing grip!!! made out of titanium. Wish I still had mine - work of art ✅
Tritan pedals came first they sold the patent to hutch find a pair of those Pedals and your rich
$80 pedals in 85. $20 replacement cages. I believe chromoly axel with sealed bearings. Top of the line.
@@batmasterson1715 $800 pedals in 2022.
Still have mine!
@@Dropthetop36 Wish I still had mine. Actually wish I had the bike they were on too.
I couldn't tell the history of the dump I took this morning in 4 minutes. I was riding a Pro Racer in 1984. Fill me in.
R.I.P. RICH
Loved the Hutch Pro Star,but it was just too expensive at the time.I hope Hutch rerelease it as it was a fantastic bike.I remember Hutch pro,Toby Henderson and RL Osborne reviewing it in BMX ACTION MAGAZINE.I think it was the most expensive bmx bike at the time $700 back in 1983/84.A lot of money.
The video just said "these Hutch bikes are between $250.00-$800.00. $800.00 was A LOT of money back then. Most parents wouldn't pay that much for their kids' bike now, let alone then.
@@LittleBigKid707bI mowed a lot of lawns and sold a lot of blotter to get that bike😂
Remember thinking I had the ultimate bike when I got my gen 1 Haro Freestyler......then I saw a trickstar in the flesh...
My ride in 1987 was All Chrome "Trickstar" with purple skyway Tuff mags & seat/pads . . .Total chick 🐥 Magnet
my left ear enjoyed this
Yeah sorry about that, the video is from VHS nearly 40 years old..
@@stuntabikerSo did this original video only come in at 4 minutes? Do you have any other videos
@@jasontomica8938 I'll check it out mate, I have asked my guys to repair the sound to stereo - will upload soon..
@@stuntabiker I don't care about the sound quality. I'm sorry, maybe you misunderstood me. I said, does this video only come in a 4 minute section? Or is it longer originally? That's what I was asking. I don't care about the sound quality. And do you have any other videos on hutch? Or not much
LOL - "Satan Rocks" at 2:41
I had a 84 hutch trickstar
That would be worth so Much money today
Cool video.
until 82 came and Bob haro stole the show w the freestyler
Hate to tell you bro Haro sucks
I'm glad to have an 86 hutch Excel
I have a red old school HUTCH PRO RACER 😃
Junk. In 1980 I was winning everything in south cali. I bought a Hutch frame and it immediately twisted on the gate! I returned it and got another. Twisted that one on the gate once again. Returned it for a 3rd frame. First launch destroyed it again. I went and bought a JMC. Raced on that frame for a few months before breaking the head tube off the frame. I then bought a Kuwahara. Loved it! It was the last frame I ever bought.
Wow, I never broke a frame racing. 15x WA-4 in '85. Think you were doing it wrong-
Race-inc. '81-'82
Hutch pro '83-'85
Freestyle was gay as f. The racing is what was cool. In 83 I got a Pro Racer frame and fork. Hutch bars, neck, Redline Flights, Hutch pedals, and Skyway black graphite Tuff Wheel mags. That bike was KILLER.
Hutch bike's are basically the Ferrari 250;gto of bmx ...
The pedals and the gear was cool. Not so much the other stuff.
Why do you say that I'm just curious. Don't you like the frames of hutch
I remember that a gold plated Hutch Trick Star was stolen. Anyone know if it was ever recovered? I think it was owned by Woody Itson?
I have a Hutch pro Racer a hutch 24 and a hutch trickstar in my collection
Martin yesss
Cool vid..what year was this from though🤔
ANSHUMAN
GOPE
@@susmitaghoshgope5749 thanks for that gibberish, now go play with your dolls in the corner.
Rad.
Rip Rich ... Your bike made me happy as a kid and today as an old fart.
What’s there different levels in these bikes like best and worse models
This is the Cadillac of bikes bro
Was Richard Hutchins the inspiration for FBM? Lol
@2:41 truth
Wth.!? NOT the history of Hutch.!
$800 bike 40 years ago.
No skimpy components on the Pro Racer. Everything top of the line.
@@batmasterson1715 I’ve got the aerospeed cranks on my PK absolutely incredible. Now I want to build a 29”
My last name is Hutchison
I had an XL pro racer in the 80's and hated it!!! Didn't like the handling.
You probably had a huffy dude
