    We had a talk with Vincent Molén and got a 2019 Bike Check

    Vincent Molén has already been out racing some European Cups and local races and is keeping up his awesome style and fighting hard with the other riders in his age group, good job! We grabbed him for a moment and took his pulse with some basic questions and a bike check!

    Hi, how are you feeling and what are you up to?
    I’m feeling great! Racing every weekend right now 😁 really fun! Right now we’re on the way to Engelholm to race “Summer race” but on the way we will stop and train in Lerum and Kungsbacka.

    How long have you been riding Bmx Racing and how did you get in to the sport?
    This is my 8:th year riding. Two of my friends started so I thought I would try!

    
 What was your exceptions on your racing last year and how has they changed to this season?

    My expectations was way to high last year, so this year I don’t really have any expectations.

    Ok, can you explain more about your expectations last year and why you decided that you would ride this season without expectations
    My expectations last year in the euoropeancup was too high, and when it didn’t come true I got really disappointed on my self. So this year i though it was better to lower my expectations in the Europeancup. 😃 But in Sweden I want to be on the Box. 😁

    Now when the season has started how does your bike feels with that new polished supercross frame and all?
    My bike feels really good, I like it a lot!

    What is your favorite part of your bike set up?
    My favorite part of my bike set up is probably my frame 😁 I think it looks good but most important it feels really good!

    Ok, thank you Vincent, we hope you will have a totally rad season! Any last words?
    I want to say a huge thanks to “dwbtoftshit” ! And hope to see you at a lot of races.

  • Vincent Molén is joining our team!

    Vincent Molén is joining our team!

    We are totally happy to present our new team member Vincent Molén and I want to start this presentation with a story that we will have in our hearts here at dwbtoftshit! forever!

    Besides from results and hard cool tricks there are some moments in your riding and racing life that gets stuck with you for the rest of your life. One of these moments we have with Vincent during the Nordic championship in Helsinki, Finland 2016. Me, Dinny, had just rolled over the finish line in the cruiser finals and was walking up against our racing tent when I saw this kid, Vincent, standing by the fence with his bike crying. I went up to him because I thought he might need some comfort. I don’t remember the conversation, but I met his dad who told me that Vincent just won the Nordic Championship and that the tears were only pure happiness and a release due to nerves, all that training and focus he had built up to this race.

    It’s hard to get this moment in to text, but for me, this was like getting a flash back from all my goals, achievements and obstacles during my younger years. I stood there for a while my whole body started to shake and my eyes turning into a river. With tears in my eyes, I walked away against our tent with a feeling that I never will forget and with a reminder of what it’s all about, passion! This story is why we think Vincent is a perfect rider in our team. No matter what result or achievement he will have during his coming season he always will have his passion with him and that is something we values more than winning races.

    Aside from this story Vincents is a 13 year old bmx racing rider with great style and awesome flow and he is already doing races with his bike around the European Bmx Racing tracks. He might look harmless but out on the tracks he’s going all in, for the win. We think it’s so rad to have Vincent on board and we are looking forward to watch him progress into the higher classes of Bmx Racing.

    Keep up the good work and welcome to us Vincent!
