As most of the internet knows, Karl Poynter is now riding for Eastern Bikes. We are excited to have such an original rider and a cool guy on the team. He’s going to add to the already strong team that Eastern has and contribute a part to the new Eastern full-length team video. I asked Karl what he liked in a company and he had this to say;
“The ingredients for a growing BMX company would be quality products of course, a solid fun lovin' team, and a good staff/family running the brand, which I believe Eastern has it all.” And to be more specific I asked him what it was he liked about Eastern.
“The people who operate and run the brand, the quality and design of the products, and definitely the team are what makes Eastern a perfect fit for me”, was his response.
“I'm really close to the majority of the team already and can't wait to hangout and ride with the members that I don't know as much as the others. The team is definitely a good mix of guy's with diverse personalities who are always having fun”, Karl said about the team.
Adam Banton added this about Karl;
“No brakes and freecoaster was Karl’s set up before it was trendy. Dialed riding, clean style and approachable personality is what makes him a young influence. He adds value to Eastern’s strong brand and more smiles and laughs on team trips for the future. Welcome hot Karl!” So with that I just want to welcome Karl to the team and just keep watching for big things to come. Hit up easternbikes.com for Karl’s and the rest of the team news.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
