Battleclip: Last Try For Dan Conway
Following the release of ‘GT Bikes: Complete Story II‘ which was filmed by Ryan Fudger, Ryan released a new installment in the Our BMX ‘Battleclip’ series documenting Dan Conway going to war for his first ever Hangover to Crank Arm 180. You can read more about the video in Ryan’s own words below.
“GT’s Complete Story 2 came out today and I happened to be the guy that filmed it, so I threw together this Battle Clip of sorts with Dan Conway. Now, this isn’t some blood and gore… The trick is relatively mellow, but a few things you should know. First, we had been out for nearly 12 hours this day, so everyone was incredibly beat. Second, Dan was riding his signature GT BMX complete bike, so he wasn’t 100% comfortable on it. And most importantly, Dan had never done this trick before, but the setup was perfect for it and he felt like he could get it done, soooo….”

The Street Series was originally started in the U.K. by Tom Creasy, DUB BMX, and Monster Energy. In its six-year lifespan, The Street Series grew from an idea into a globally recognized event staged in cities around the world and held in support of BMX Day. The final Street Series took place on Saturday, July 22, 2017, and was hosted in Melbourne, Moscow, Paris, London, San Diego, and Philadelphia. Dan Lacey returned to host the event in Philadelphia for the second year in a row, and with the assistance of Matt Miller and the Chocolate Truck crew, guided the crowd of hundreds of BMX riders from spot to spot through the neighborhoods of North Philadelphia.
One year later, we reconnected with some of the locals that were in attendance as well as our contributing photographers, Sam Downs, Frank Ashbridge, and Kyle Dipilla, for a look back at the final Street Series in Philadelphia. Frank Ashbridge also edited together some previously unseen footage that he filmed during the 9th and Poplar stop of The Street Series.
We hope you enjoy.
