You mostly ride trails, is that why Deluxe is a perfect fit for you?
Greg: Jeeps! not only is the bike super nice, but Deluxe stands for all the things I love the most about bmx! I'm super stoked to be part of something like that, it is a dream come true!

How did it feel to get the Deluxe package in the mail?
Greg: Hahaha, words can not discribe!! I started to put together the bike and did not stop. It was 03.00 at night when the job was done, aaaaight!

Did you have to use a file or a hammer when you put together your new bike?
Greg: NOPE! only 2 left hands haha.

Are there any modifications you made to your bike?
Greg: No spacer between my bottom bracket: I like my cranks to be tight, I hate it if the cranks spin when I take my feet off.

Thanks to: friends and family, my girlfriend Dorien, Mike Emde, Mark Noble, Paul and Bart de Jong, Rik van Dijk, Peter and Elke, everyone I have ridden and had a good time with, thank you all so much!
