That clip was great. Thanks for posting it. I must have build 1000s of bikes, 100s of BMXs (I worked in a bike shop for 10 years) but I still watched that all the way through. Really cool.


I watched an on line product Video from Alans BMX a while ago and he said something about there are 2 types of "new" headset. One is the one we all like, that has an angle machined inside the headtube. The other still has push (hammer) in cups, but they sit inside the headtube. Both these systems look the same when the bike is built, but one is just as bad as the old style. Im not going to try to say what they were called cos Im bound to get it the wrong way round, but watch out for it.
