I am arranging an interview with Brian for the Rad zine and thought i would put it out there for you lot to ask a question or two

obviously if there are alot I may have to cull or combine questions but I imagine there are bound to be questions I wouldn't ask that you lads would like to ask.

just leave your questions for him here

If he could have custom made a bike for any rider, who would it have been?

when will my frame be ready? (joking

)

I would love to know about how he started out learning his craft
Does he have any photos of his early stuff & how did he start getting involved with BMX as it took off?

Did he admire anyone else's work? Vorris Dixon for eg?
If he could have signed anyone ( US or/and UK ) to ride for Curtis who would he have chosen ?
Did the freestyler come about due to market pressure or was he genuinely excited by the project ?

Can you ask him why he made the seat tube on my PR Styler a stupid fooking size???

Surely thats so he could sell you a Curtis seatpost

Anyone else got a question?

retrogeezer · « **Reply #11 on:** March 24, 2015, 11:50 PM »

how did he make such quality framesets for such a cheap price?

deeman · « **Reply #12 on:** March 25, 2015, 12:04 AM »

Did he foresee BMX taking off like it did?

Guess i'll make up my own questions

Devilock · « **Reply #17 on:** March 29, 2015, 08:40 PM »

What's his favourite album & how many pieces of toast has he eaten in one sitting?

Gashead · « **Reply #18 on:** March 30, 2015, 10:46 AM »

I have had the pleasure of doing an interview with Brian before..........he has some very interesting stories............

Ask him about the time Spielberg was on the phone to him asking him to make some bikes for a crazy film he had about an alien

Ace

Don't suppose you have a transcript of that interview do you?
