Any prototype parts you're running at the moment?
Sergio: I'm running a prototype chain at the moment and I consider myself really picky with chains as I think they are really important and I am really happy with it!

Any reason for this colour frame you're running right now?
Sergio: It matches the collaboration shoe I did with fly and Etnies which I'm really happy about.

How much easier is it to work on your BMX bike compared to the MX bike?
Sergio: well I started with an mx bike that I thought was the deal of my life, and ended up rebuilding pretty much everything in it. A bmx bike is just 10 bolts and 8 bearings hahaha.
