Part 2 of our "Behind the Scenes of Magnetar" brings us back to a heavy session at an underground bowl in Pennsylvania. Featuring the crew plus a few of our good friends.
The Halahan Bros might be young, but they've amassed more trail riding/building knowledge in their 20ish some years to know what they want underneath 'em when they're shooting for the moon!
Watch the finals from Round Two of the 2024 UCI BMX Racing World Cup in Rotorua (NZL) on Sunday 11 February.
Name: Perry Wills
Hometown: Sacramento, CA
Started riding BMX in: Late 70’s
Number of bikes in your collection: 20-25 bikes currently not including parts
Can you claim you bombed down the hills on a bike in the '70s?
Perry Wills: I did not bomb hills in 70’s, we typically made jumps in fields or went to places we knew there were jumps. Relatively flat where I grew up.
Do you think the suspension bikes from the '70s are fascinating?
Perry Wills: Love suspension bikes! Own several. Probably the rarest I’ve had is Harry Leary’s mono shock made by Prodyne.. Current rarest probably the Whitney Marine Baja 500 mono shock.
When you see one at a local swapmeet do you have to get it no matter what?
Perry Wills: I’ve purchased 3 mono shocks all being Matthew’s at a local flea market and one Silverfox shock bike so yeah pretty much. If I were to find one I’d most likely buy it..
What's the story about the full suspension Panda?
