You have got big bars now, when are the brakes going to go off your bike? Bjorn: If I would take my brakes off my bike I could do only half of my tricks and because I can ride a single ramp for weeks it doesn't make sense for me to go brakeless. This question only fits one answer: why!??
Do you follow trends in bike set up or do you ride what you want to ride? Bjorn: I don't know. I don't give a shit about trends! Everyone should ride a bike that he likes and when people think they need to copy skaters, they should do it. I've been told that you are real when you don't give a shit about everything else
Next to Mankind, who else do help out with your bike parts?
Bjo
rn: At this point I can give a big thank you to Christoph and Kai from Unity BMX. Both guys have given me excellent support over the last few years. The guys from Country Bikes take care of my Profile stuff and Bodo Hellwig sends me new rims from time to time. Thanks guys!When is the last time you weighed your bike?
Bjorn: I do that every morning after I get up to see how my bike is doing. Right after that I take my bike apart and adjust it again

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