Freestyle Now squad member, Sydney resident, father of Beatrix and rad roller, Paul Chamberlain is constantly progressing his riding. Never to be content with just doing the same tricks he seems to change his bike parts to force himself to change his styles. From no brakes, two pegs, three pegs, high seat, low seat and back to four pegs, all of these modifications push him into different styles and tricks. He recently sent through an update on what’s he has been up to lately.
“I’ve gone back to a more flatland specific setup over the past six months. I’ve been riding quite a lot. Basically at least a couple of hours a day. I feel good. Working on a new style. No touching the seat (Haven’t put my hand on the seat since the 3rd of March), no pumping and more stepping up onto the tire. Mostly front wheel at the moment, but I’m always keeping the back wheel alive. Last week I hit a car at a roundabout because I went from a chrome rim to a black one and the brakes didn’t work as well. Lucky I was wearing a helmet and bag – That took most of it. Lucky escape. Get the right pads for your rim! I was out for a week, but I’m back riding again. I am heading to England in August with my wife and daughter to see my family, and planning to head to ja[an again in October. That’s about it really. Between working, riding and family I don’t have time for anything else. Thanks Stowaway distribution and S&M bikes – very stoked.
