A FEW WORDS FROM FOLEY ABOUT HIS SETUP:

" I’m rocking the raw Grime 21.2 with the tight back end running it in the mid section of the dropout. If you have seen Denim ride you know his frame really can take a beating in the style I like to ride. I think the length works really well for me being a tall guy, and the twist of technical specs with the steep head angle and short back end makes the bike feel really responsive too.

Got the new BSD Alex D bars and they're cooking! Rocking them at 9.75 inches tall, I needed to find somewhere in-between the Raiders and the Leezus bars and Alex went and found the sweet spot!

I'm running the new grey Donnastreets at 2.3 inch wide. With the frame being in raw, Grant hit us up to try the new grey tyres to match it. I’ve not always been a fan of coloured tyres but these beasts really kill it alongside the frame graphics. Boys @bsd always killing it with the designs and graphics throughout all their products!

Shout outs to Rach, Grant and all the homies at BSD for giving me one hell of a ride! The Woods Co-op for keeping my body in the best shape and mentally focused. DubBMX for the good times. Etnies for the shoes, couldn’t ride without them bad boys! And shout out to the Procedure homies as well. Just a massive thanks to everyone, the support is unreal... "
