The recent Bikezilla Mass Ride happened on 12 July 2025. A happy occasion that reminiscent on many Bikezilla Mass Rides that came before. We were blessed with an early morning rain that fizzled out by 8 am and the good weather that followed held itself well throughout the rest of the morning! The wet start did indeed dampened some participants' will power to get out of bed that morning but turnout was still sizeable when we flagged off. This ride meant a lot to us. It brought back lots of fond memories. The last mass ride happened in October 2022, nearly a 3 year gap. Bikezilla Mass Rides' frequency had really spaced itself out over the past few years. While we are sure that we would always be around to keep the bike life and culture alive, we have to admit that we are indeed affected by market forces in the cycling sport industry. Our editor shares his views on this community tradition event and what the future might hold for it.

We have heard about Berm Cycle and their unique creations over the past few years. This young but daring company is no stranger to unique products that are sometimes slightly off well-trodden paths. Some noteworthy mentions include the Ragnar Drop-bar Ti Mountain Bike Frame and the Riot BMX Ti Frame & Fork set. Aside from these special frames, they also have the more conventional yet no-less-rad Rexx Ti Enduro Hardtail Frame. This article introduces another new frame from them. Let's check out the Razen Ti Dirt Jump Frame.

The Eminent Haste MT is an enduro bike that took us a lot of riding time to fully understand it. Not because we couldn't feel the bike, but rather, we took longer than usual to understand why this bike behaves the way it does. First off, the overall aesthetics got us interested and then next, we were ploughing through Eminent Cycles' suspension design theory. Their approach to solving present day's frame design flaws is scientific and convincing. But designs will remain as designs if they are not applied to actual products. We had to ride the bike to find out! Here's what we discovered.

During many casual conversations with fellow riding friends, the topic on why I still continue to ride my street bike pops up often. While I am not the best old man street styler in town, and had my fair shares of cycling "bailouts". I take pride in my constant core strength exercise opportunities whenever the occasion arises - which is everytime I ride any of my bicycles. Every ride, long or short of it, where depleting energy level from long rides allows, I would try to tackle some street features - be it a trash bag full of dry leaves, a kerb or a road divider. To some, this might look like a habit only street riders (Street MTB or BMX) have because we are "playful"? Not quite accurate. It's a habit I am happy to retain throughout my bike life as this hops and pops continue to build core strength and muscle memories. For every cyclist who wish to do well in their primary cycling disciplines (mountain, road or any other disciplines along this spectrum), I suggest getting your technical foundation skills dialled and core strength up to speed. Here's how.

Singapore Open Enduro (SOE) 2023 happened on 21 and 22 October 2023. It was a very successful event and set the bar high for future events and races to come. Stories about SOE would not be complete without the mention of its founder Wilson Low. This story is not about the actions of SOE, it is about the man behind the flattest enduro in the world. We didn’t realise that a flat enduro could be so tough to put together. Wilson Low shares his blood, sweat and tears of joy for his brainchild.

Berm Cycle comes across to us as a young innovative company with a strong passion for high quality bicycle products that skewed on the side of high octane sub-disciplines. So far, we counted: aggressive mountain biking, bicycle touring and gravel biking and this list is expected to grow in the near future. It is no surprise that their brand culture spectrum would also include Street BMX. Enter the Berm Riot Titanium BMX frame and fork set, along with a matching 4-Piece handlebar. Bikezilla took hold of the custom Riot and spent some time with it.
