Do you like old or new bike companies?
Prodigal Son:
Brad Simms is such an interesting dude. I love seeing when there is a new video out. It's like those mornings when there are donuts at work.
dude...:
ive heard brad simms is a bit of a douche, apparently when he was over here he was getting snaked by skaters at some park as was all like "dont these guys know who I am?" - apparently theres a reason he ends up riding for trash companies like alienation even though he can 540 on flat and hop higher than the sun. thats just what i heard though, his bulldog bikes section is wicked

My current bike is made of t1, s&m, solid, flybikes, odyssey, g sport, and then a couple of bits from newer companies like éclat and BSD.

BSD is as old as G-Sport I think. I definitely bought a sprocket off Grant back in about 95. Definitely older than Fly.

Interesting. I had no idea. I guess they weren't that well known in the states or at least not to me.

yeah they only made sprockets for years, then they did a few ti axles i think, then suddenly theyve got a full range straight out of the taiwan big book of bike parts.
still dont rate their newer stuff though, i get the feeling their selling product more on their team than the actual products themselves (but hey, thats how you make a profit in bmx) which doesnt make me wanna buy their stuff particularly. my 22 came with a bsd rear hub and its loud-if thats your thing
got bike?:
I do respect old companies who survived, and ready to respect new companies making decent parts. I'm buying parts from any innovative brand that shows true interest in BMX, and not brands that copy someone else efforts to make money.

Seeing as how I consider FlyBikes one of the "new" brands, I guess I'd stick with the old stuff.
