Some Raleigh BMX history
Bob_Acid:
Raleigh USA did go with decent companys. At one point they had bill bastian making frames for them.

interesting thread
imagine what bmx in the uk would have been like if those million burners had got, for example, mongoose motomag geometry . . . .
highrisedrifter:
Great thread with some good points. I always thought that Raleigh had too many Burners in the range. Of course, at the heart of things, as mentioned above, are the executives who sit many steps removed from the world in which they allegedly hold sway.
Ruff's bike was not really marketed well. I seem to recall that they started to market it as an afterthough as they were seemingly starting to move away from BMX.

Thats exactly my point, how much research would it take to find out the best selling bmx, or the most desired Bmx, and used that bike as a guide to your product.
