80s Cult-Classic BMX Movie “RAD” Tribute

“When GT sent me the RAD series 29 bike I had to make a little tribute to the movie that inspired many so here’s my best Cru Jones impersonation!” –Wyn Masters

Loving this modern day homage to the 1986 cult-classic BMX film “Rad.” If you grew up worshiping at the alter of Cru Jones and daydreaming of two-wheeled slow dancing with Aunt Becky from Full House, this’ll be right up your alley. Happy weekend ya’ll!

Inspiration comes in many forms. For some, it can be found in great music, art, cultural icons, sport heroes, family members and more. For the 2022 GT Rad Series, inspiration came in the form of the 80s cult-classic BMX film “Rad” – and its main character, Cru Jones. The Rad movie is a two-wheeled adaptation of the timeless tale of a hometown kid taking on the best in the world and beating the odds… what could be more inspiring?

In partnership with Rad we set out to combine the trendsetting appeal of this era in pop culture with the booming Big BMX market – done the GT way! Rather than recreating a bike from the movie, GT took a fresh approach to the Pro Series 29 platform to create the limited-edition Rad Series bike. We’ve re-imagined Cru Jones as a bike and have included subtle details Rad movie fans will love.
