yes matt it seems strange that kuwahara would let one of here riderson a cw mini
lee alexander told martyc frazer was short so had to use this frame.
i wonder if any other riders couldnt ride there teams bikes   ???

Me and frazer had a pic taken, it was in bmx weekly but I sadly lost it years ago. I think I was talking to him before his race, the race before he had a nasty wipe out and I was giving him a bit of encouragment.

On the pro road racing circuit this isn't unusual at all, many of the top riders ride custom built frames stickered up whatever their frame sponsor is.  I've always been amazed that they are able to do it but I can see the logic as to why as you have to be comfortable on a bike if going to be on it for up to 9 hours a day  :LolLolLolLol:
