To start off May’s Bike Of The Day is a candy red/gold 2017 Hutch Trick Star built up by Ralph Birkhölzer. I’m at a loss of words to describe how amazing this bike looks. This is truly a work of art. May is gonna be a crazy month of sick BMX bike builds. This bike set the bar real high.
First it was an idea bit after 5 months it is finally done. My personal Trick Star. It was an urge to combine the color candy Red with 24k gold. For one part it seems fitting, for the others it is overdone and for most it is simply a BMX-bike. The ‘Old Schoolers’ between us might not like ‘Repop’ much but I have to say, this ‘Repop’ also has an allure to it. For me it is simply beautiful. It is sitting in my living room like an art sculpture and everyday when I look at it, I am happy. I probably won’t ever drive, since I don’t want the tires to get dirty. You can’t explain that. It is simply the passion for BMX. Greetings to all the Hutch-BMX-Fans and to the women who hate us for our hobby.
