On Friday (October 8, 2010) in a move that will give Answer BMX the support and resources it needs to grow and prosper as a company, John Sawyer of Palm Harbor FL, purchased Answer BMX Inc. from former owner Luke Wilson of Calgary Canada. John coming on board as an investor gives us the shot in the arm that we need to increase production capacity and inventory levels to better serve our customers worldwide. His business knowledge and passion for BMX racing makes him a perfect fit for our future plans at Answer BMX.
I want to publically thank Luke Wilson for saving Answer BMX from certain bankruptcy and extinction back in late 2008 and for giving me the opportunity to come on board with the company in March 2009. Luke is entering into new ventures in his true profession and I wish him luck and much success.
I also have to thank Bubba Harris for his efforts to promote Answer for the past year and a half. As many of you may now know, Bubba is now riding for Supercross BMX and we wish him all the best. Bill Ryan, owner of Supercross, is like an uncle to Bubba and is in a position to offer Bubba the support he needs to continue his comeback to #1 and I have to thank Bill for stepping up and supporting Bubba when Answer was not able to. No doubt he will be a great asset to that brand and we hope to keep Bubba riding on the new Dagger fork to help him win!
I also have to thank Burlin Harris and the rest of the Supercamp crew for all their work and promotional efforts thus far. They have had to take the brunt of the questions from the public about what was happening with Answer BMX as a company and product availability. I know that can be a frustrating task but those guys handled it with smiles and positive attitudes and I can’t thank them enough.
I have rejuvenated excitement for the future of Answer BMX behind our new partnership with John Sawyer and the doubts people have about the brand will soon be erased. We have multiple shipments of inventory en route and deliveries taking place as early as later this week. We will have increased production capacity, increased production schedules, and better customer service to provide for the racers and customers wanting Answer BMX products. We will be implementing new sponsorship programs and new marketing campaigns to promote the growth of BMX racing as well as our own brand. There are also new product ideas in the works as well. All in all, it appears that we may have finally found an answer to the future success of Answer BMX.

To All of the Racers, Bike Shops, Distributors, and Fans of Answer BMX Products; On behalf of Answer BMX products, I would like to issue a sincere Thank You as well as an apology to all of those who have been patient and faithful to the Answer BMX brand for the past few years, particularly the past year and a half. Thank you to those who have stuck with us and continue to support the brand. And a sincere apology to all who have become frustrated with our long delays in having inventory readily available and because of that, our customer service not what is deserved of our loyal racers and customers. But the good news is that all of that is about to change.
