Sounds promising....

http://www.bikebiz.co.uk/news/27532/Skateboarder-icon-lends-name-to-mass-market-bikes

Then you google the company involved....

http://www.dynacraftbike.com/brands.htm

But I guess it says "mass market" ::)

whats so different about a "tony orc's" bike?

its just a corporate brand name, like haro,gt,se,kuwa,etc,etc, but a little further down the marketing "shiteheap"

its really only the stickers that youre buying anyway, take them off and its just another bike made in taiwan,china, usa,wherever.............

look at how NIKE tried for 7 years, yes 7 years to finally crack the skateboarding market, they eventually did it of course!

and now(likr the eye of sauron) they are firmly fixed on our beloved bmx, free stickers in "dire" anyone? :LolLolLolLol: analsbmx selling them?

as soon as bmx is dragged into the "olympics" all this is cool bmx "malarkey" is going mainstream,

its up to us to decide who controls the direction bmx takes and how it developes,

dont buy into it and the big corportions wont steam in and take over,

"the hand that holds the wallet rules the world"

You know sometimes you do sprout a lot of shit as far as I'm concerned, but I do actually agree with you sometimes as well.

I often wonder why it's the BCF that run BMX when they are not the slightest bit interested in it. I also don't know why BMX let them run it either.
