when van and the rider he is interviewing (AK in this instance) is pointing at the parts and scrutinizing the part on mute as b-roll, are they actually talking about the part or is it really just a b-roll thing/acting? i'd love a longer format bike check. although i've also come to understand that pro riders can only run what their sponsors have and bike mods are not much of a thing now.
@@pinonXO as long as your paying someone especially a team rider any type of revenue they make from sales i.e frame sales and parts a portion goes to the rider. So since he doesn’t make many video appearances and you take away his parts than that rider doesn’t generate much income.. So why Cult does this? Not sure other than just having his name on the roster and knowing Robbie he’ll just keep him cause he’s a stellar rider. But yeah that’s just a business pov.
come on, he had just a sig colorway of an os team frame. not a custom geometry. so the colorways are seasonable kind of thing, they can't produce pink frames forever lol
We need the British man with the long hair founder of source to have a bike check, can’t believe I can’t think of the name but the guy that runs source
His voice always surprises me.
I thought this guy was from California!?
I know right, this dude talks so majestically lol
I thinks AK was confuse about Hawk frame geo because backend is 13.5-13.8 and ht is 74.5 🤔
yeah the Hawk definitely has that mellow ht angle.
Ikr , im pretty sure he’s actually mentioning dehart frame rather than the hawk frame .
Gloves 🎉 I don’t know how people ride without them 👍🏻
Works for AK!
Gloves are skin savers and stays grippy. My hands sweat.
Ak all day every day 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
YESSIR!
What brand are those hub guards? eclat?
Yes Eclat Overguards
I am here for this one too, best bmx company to ever do it
I thought the shorty frame was his sig frame maybe I'm wrong?
Its the A to the K 🔥
Touching parts looks funny
How many wheels do you think his bike has? I'm so excited to find out
3 👍🏻
Just upload it already!
Kinda vague on the AK frame change? And Haws frame is for transition not street damage.
AK does it all!
He's so tall that the Hawk frame is techie for him. I'm surprised he doesn't run a 21.8tt.

They're talking!
I hope his signature parts have an update
Same!

What happened to his signature frame?? Anyways another great Bike Check. AK is a ripper for sure💯🙌🏼
Since he’s been lowkey it was probably a smart move by cult removing his frame, yet keeping him on a slightly lower payroll.
