  • THIS MOVIE IS BETTER THAN SLEEP. Any night. :D

  • Best childhood movie ever!!

  • 0:01 - I never understood why Crue didn't drop in straight away, would've kept his lead on Bart Taylor lol

  • @Darkermandeeper yeah, was thinking that- but doubtless it was choreographed like that, to make things dramatic. doubtless I wouldn't waste time like that though lol

  • This was my favorite movie as well. Its a shame they don't promote physical outdoor sports as they used to. They wouldn't have 200 lb grade schoolers running around and real physical work outdoors when they are teenagers would be more enjoyable for them.

  • god this movie rocks!!!!

    

  • @zechariah105 Since your comment was only posted 4 months ago... I also used to watch this movie when I was young but I must say... I just went out and bought a 2012 Fit Inman 2 after not riding for 13 years and took it to the local skate park with another friend who also used to race back in the day. EASILY one of the best days I have had in years. Money, women, cars, life... etc. Never stop riding. Period. Its THAT awesome. Oh yeah.. I wiped but its alllll good! :)

  • 2001 GT Dyno NFX all day ! jk... best bmx movie !

  • Now that they are official and have room, thumbs up if your on the Rad team.

  • @DrDope013 at the same time im on rad but i got a 2001 GT Dyno NFX blue with blue shadow chain(half link chain) and red nos grips! look it up on google but mines better!

  • 80s was so innocent i love it!

  • the only disappointing thing about this movie was that they never expanded on the ending to make RAD2

  • in 1987 this made me want t race bikes...so i did

  • @zechariah105 ....hey man, get back home and ride that bike! Thanks

  • so...when is RAD 2 coming out?...

  • really nice movie, and damn mongoose bikes were bad ass back then

  • Awesome movie. i liked it in the 80's and its still RAD!!!

    The best part i enjoy is the "Send me an angel" duo.

    I used to try to do some of those tricks on my bike back in the days!!

  • Great movie...I forgot the 88 olympics great Bart connor was in this!!!

  • aunt becky from full house,Mr.hand from fast times at ridgemont high,the boss villan from short circut2, adriene from the rocky movies!classic ! but thy should of had feris bueller play the lead of cru jones.My question is this,why is cru dressed like evil kenevil?i sed o race my red line @kerny moto park in san dieg when i was a kid inthe 80's.mongoose sucks and why i mongoose boss always abad guy in every movie?type cast or bad agent?you decide.all in all brought bak alot of memories.

  • 7:55-8:00 that was just retarded....lol....ppl should not be able to do that....

  • It sucks i was born in 1995

  • It is one of the most gone back in time movies I have ever seen in a long time. It took me back to my adolescent years in my life. It is a movie to remember for ever to keep on mind of the younger years.

  • Wish they would have made a rad 2

  • And Mike Miranda iiiiiiis OUT!

  • Pure Classic by far!!! I was the best on a bike in my county by far, and learned it all watching this movie as a kid!!!

  • Don't like how Bart waited for him in the tunnel! Other than that awesome movie! Brought back allot of great memories!

  • Boy dose that bring back a lot of fond memory's the era of BMX was the biggest thing in American during the 80s. the brands of bikes back then and all the parts you can get to "trick" your bike. in till the 90s came around and the BMX era came to a end now days it is Mtn Bike racing and the modern BMX "X Games" "Dose any body remember "Freestyle Magazine during the 80s"?

  • @flyingjay49 yea it was.I lived in PR and BMX was everywhere,from racing to freestyling.A couple of dudes on my block were into it,one of them had blue parts and tires on his chrome bike.I thought it was the coolest shit I ever saw.The simple times man.They were "Golden".

  • if life could only be as good as this movie

  • I used to watch this movie religiously when I was 14-15 years old.It was my BMX video,my and my boys would watch it and go out riding afterwards.Badass!

  • @Starzskream423

    we would do the same!

  • it's bitchin that hal needham directed this. liked smokey and the bandit better but this was a fun movie when I was a kid.

  • They could never remake this movie again without eFing it up! ..And part II?

  • Great movie but never understood the ending. Why would they want that asshole Bart Taylor on the Rad team? I mean.. the dude talks shit to Christian, gives the old man a hard time about getting a table at the restaurant, then takes his own teammate out during the race. Then you wanna put this prick on your team - WTF?

  • @StudioGuyMN he was redeemed, kind of like darth vader!

  • @StudioGuyMN classic 80's ending were the bully learns his lession. Kinda like the end of Karate Kid, were Johnny final wasnt an asshole. You cant beat em, join em mentality

  • they would have to call it two rad

  • i want RAD part II . . .it will be cool. what do you think guys?

  • @grajeboys

    yeah *rolls eyes*

  • love this movie.... 

  • Why do they not make cool movies like this anymore???

  • Cru actually lost. They had to edit it to make it look like he won.

  • I just watched this whole thing...Unbelievable! Ive been looking to buy this for years now.

    Great movie that I loved as a kid.

  • in the credidts, is that eddie fiola?

  • 7:00 Eddie Fiola man the king of style. old school tricks like this so fkn cool and so much style

  • I wonder why Mongoose hired such dick-weeds to work for them. Personally, I wouldn't want my company to be represented that way in a movie I sponsored.

  • @losttribe3001 Especially Rex and Rod Reynolds hideous matching gray suits at the dance! LOL

  • @TheRobster00 those outfits are hard to look at. They remind me of the uniforms from 'V' (1983)

  • I think the cop is the Iron Sheik, no?

  • BEST MOVIE EVER !!!!!

  • It be cool to see a Sequel after soo many years.

  • @carolinasled Yea i'm sure it would make alot of money with all the original actors in the movie being all old an junky lookin now after so much time....hahaha

    No i'm playin it would be interesting to see after all these years how they would bring back such a classic movie with a modern style...

  • There is thunder in the heart of Cru Jones. Today he tastes glory.

  • The fact that bart taylor stops and waits for crew to catch up totally ruins the movie... It just shows that crew couldnt have won unless bart waited for him, I felt this way when i watched as a kid and i still think its gay .

  • what does hulk hogan have to do with bycicle racing?

  • @Jsparrow350 what does ethel merman have to do with bass fishing?

  • this music really gets me pumped

  • Riskin it all takin a chance, for the thrill of a moment

  • I guess Bart wasn't so bad after all. How touching, what ending, all that was missing was Cru and Bart tongue fucking each others assholes

  • Man Bart had all the ho's cheering for him, that pimp

  • And we've got a rider down! It's Hollywood Mike Miranda, his second dramatic exit of the day!

  • Damn Aunt Becky is just asking for a pounding wearing that yellow and white outfit!

  • @GiggidyGoo76 uncle J gave it to her in the doodie hunter already

  • The killer 80's music really brought this movie to life. Love it!

  • I GREW UP ON THIS FRICKEN MOVIE!!!

  • @dk5388 i dont think you did

  • Who did the flip? I know that wasn't Eddie.

  • Great upload, thanks so much, great memories...this makes me want to go out and buy a bike.

  • @23Jarek23 did you?

  • i love this movie!!!!! thanks!

  • just watched the whole movie. brought back good childhood memories :)

  • @kellyambermendoza no it didnt

  • Now i'm thinking. Was Cru jones on PED's or HGH at that time??!! HAHAHA!!!

  • @gelmanskii you're not clever

  • Now I'm thinking, was Cru jones on PED's or HGH at that time??!! HAHAHA!!!

  • @gelmanskii you're not clever

  • He was stupid he stopped and let him catch up I would have won and been done with it

  • @mattsmt20 too bad you'll never race bikes professionally ever again faggot

  • We Started R.A.D -Riders Against Discrimination- now Selling R.A.D shirts, That read "ALLOW BIKES NOW" to raise money to build Bike Friendly Skateparks. 2 shirts for $20 and you get RAD on DVD for FREE.

  • Thanks a lot! I have been looking for this for ages!

  • Thanks so goddamn much for adding this on here! It's literally impossible to find on dvd anywhere! Thanks so much!

  • That's because there's no official dvd release. All dvds you find are bootlegs from the original VHS. I heard there's some kind of legal limbo nonsense going on with this film otherwise it would have been out by now. This movie is RADICAL!

  • oh man...I <3 RAD!...I got into skating in like 89' and stayed with that..but still...that music gets it going!

  • yeah, me too...

  • love when the hot prick turns to the good side

  • Yeahhh whatta team!!! Let's go jumping on our bmx's coz there's thunder in your heart!! :)))

  • if bart never stopped i think he would of taken cru.

  • I saw this movie as a kid. Now, 15 years later, with my 4 yr old on my lapt, i find myself going through the same emotions i went through during the "send me an angel" bike dance sequence. this movie is definitely RAD and he now wants a bike where he can do those tricks cause his spiderman bike with training wheels wont let him fly over our car..

  • LMAO thank you for passing this awesome movie onto future generations - you are truly RAD!! :)

  • great post bro

  • Muranda dramatically exits like a motherfucker

  • Would it be fair to label Lori Loughlin the poor man's Gina Davis? I always felt that their parts were pretty interchangable had Lori gotten similar breaks.

  • Hollywood Mike Muranda hahah

  • i seen this in the theater when i was a kid! damn! im 36 now and boy that brought it all back! god, i still got my GT stored in my parents basement!!!!!!! wonder if i can still ride like that? lol

  • props on the upload. much respect 2 taylor 4 waiting on cru to race 1 on 1.

  • REMAKE THIS MOVIE.....the shit bmx'ers r doing these days r insane... very tame by todays standards.... REMAKE definitely.....

  • hey

    we may have more technical shit now and it may be harder but at least they had style back than

    i don't know how a remake would go

    it would be pretty cool to watch though

  • The 80's soundtrack is one of the best parts of this movie. I don't think it would be nearly as good if it was full of auto tune shit.
