Why would they? If anything it should be the other way round.

LOL WUT so according to you:
Odyssey should pay BSD, because BSD decides they were the company to go and fabricate (and maybe patent?) a shitty Antigram guard that is NOT up to Odyssey standard?
IF there's a patent on their anti guard, that would mean Odyssey might even have to pay to produce a product, to fit on a product they actually thought of themselves?
Let alone having to compete with guards of other companies for théir own hubs cutting hubguard revenues effectively in half.
Odyssey might as well start making shit for BSD products.
Also there might be kids screaming blah antigram this blah after possibly having a shit designed product crap out their well designed product.
Which would hurt Odyssey's rep.
I fail to see how Odyssey would owe a dime to BSD.

None of that even makes any sense.
No, of course Odyssey don't owe BSD anything. Just as BSD don't owe Odyssey anything. By your logic all companies owe each other "royalties" because grips fit on handlebars, pedals fit in cranks and tires fit on rims?
Sasha:
Kenda be paying mad royalties on their innertubes
DontcallmeKenneth:
You are aware the odyssey guard is aluminum and the bsd guard is plastic right? I dont see why they would have to pay royalties for making their own type of guard when they are clearly two different designs.
Edit: i should probably post then watch tv. Im a few posts late.

I think I remember Odyssey advertising the Wombolt/Twombolt arms as being more angled to keep your feet further apart but I could be completely making that up in my head. I'm really sick of getting ankle bite.

From BMXboard:
Wombolts/Thunderbolts were definitely designed with ankle clearance as part of the design specification. Profiles and Primos have about 4mm clearance between the outside edge of the pedal boss and the end of the axle bolt. Thunderbolts are about 14mm...
