When did you get the hook up with Redline?
JB: At the end of Febuary.
Did it take long for you to get used to the new bike?
JB: Yeah it took me 2-3 weeks, mostly because it is way lighter than my previous bike.
What Redline parts do you like the most so far? JB: The cranks and the frame, they look cool and feel nice to ride.
Do you care about the looks of your bike?
JB: Yes, a bike is always nicer to ride if you like the way it looks. I like the grey-red combination on it, also, I try to keep it clean and not to scratch it
Does it have to roll smooth all the time?
JB: Yeah I hate riding if I feel something is not running properly, needs to be fixed or could be better. Most of the time I have to take care of my brakes because the dust from riding dirt makes them work not as good as they could.
What tire pressure do you run? JB: 4 to 4.5 front, 5 to 5.5 rear, depends on what kind of spot I'm riding. I found out recently that I like more pressure when riding a vert ramp.
What are the modifications you made to your bike?
JB: cut the bars, and the hub axles

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