BMX and fashion aren't normally used in the same sentence, but back in early 2011 Nigel Sylvester introduced Mirraco to fashion and accessory designers Dee & Ricky with the idea of collaborating to create a BMX bike that ignored the current style of bike graphics and instead, took a fresh approach. Dee & Ricky had previously collaborated on an accessories line that incorporated a favorite childhood toy, Legos. They've been seen on celebrities such as Pharell Williams and Kanye West. The twin brothers then went on to collaborate with G-Shock to make their Lego inspired watch, and followed that up with a sneaker deal with Pony. Their latest collaboration is with BMX icon Dave Mirra, where the brothers designed a limited production bike with a white frame, cheetah print seat, lime green chain and gold and pastel colored parts. A decal sheet with multi-colored letters is included so you can customize it to your liking. It's their take on a fashionable way to avoid the hustle and bustle of NYC transit. Whether you love it or hate it, you have to admit it's both stylish and unique.
