Dirty Little Secret

The cat's going to be out of the bag sooner or later, so we might as well tell you now:



Wayne is addicted to old-school BMX. When he's not designing chopper parts and building show bikes, he searches the Innerweb for clean, hard-to-find, and NOS BMX frames, forks and components from BMX's glory days in the early 1980's.

McGoo from ChopCult.com recently visited our shop to do a feature, and when he saw Wayne's stash he flipped. You see, McGoo is an old-school BMXer with DEEP roots in the scene, and he personally knew or worked for many of the companies that made the BMX stuff Wayne loves the most. Stuff like Hutch cranks, Skyway TA Aero race frames, SE Landing Gear forks, and practically everything from Araya, Dia-Compe and Suntour.



Here are some photos of Wayne's BMX room. As you can see, bike frames outnumber choppers 10 to 1!

Thanks to ChopCult for visiting our factory, and thanks to all the old-school BMXers out there who feed Wayne's addiction.
