those meddling yanks !  :tickedoff:

jT Racing:
only reason we have an american BB is so the yanks could get thier cheap assed 1PC's through the frame. if all bmx's had a euro bb and a 3PC then there would be an endless supply of bb's from road bikes. Bugger.

SaMAlex:
AND, Why is a "1 inch" headset from a BMX slightly bigger than a "1 inch" headset from everything else (Road bikes and MTBs)? Again, its gotta be a Yank thing!

dj_benice:
And just to confuse the issue why does the CW 3pc take 1/2" thread pedals  :angel:

their cheap assed 1pc revolutionised bmx crankage

the alternatives at the time (unless you spent BIG) were cotter pin shit and alloy pastry single use cranks

all hail the one piece.
