Relic are one of those independent BMX companies that know what they like and stick to it, no gimmicks, no flavours of the month, just well made BMX products with a classic feel. In their own words "we believe that the simplicity of a BMX bike is something to be valued and our products reflect this". Their parts and accessories are more aimed towards the trails and transitions style of riding and with a team of riders like Clint Reynolds and Lil Jon behind them you know that they mean business!

Ashley Charles (Relic's head honcho) has a solid sets of ethos and makes his decisions based around strong morals that he has gained from over 20 years of riding BMX bikes and all the great experiences

witnessed along that path. He comes from an era of BMX that was paved by the likes of Mat Hoffman and Joe Rich, and he says: "Not only were these people incredible bike riders responsible for the way people ride today, they were also forward thinking individuals and positive role models for the younger generations. This is something we feel BMX is lacking in a large way and we want to help remind kids that your bike can be a tool to self growth by paying homage to this DIY approach and the legends that pioneered this philosophy".
