Ryan Russell worked at Fit/S&M back in the day and continues to work his magic on the bike 10+ years later. Ryan moved to Portland and has been really digging the Shortcut frame for riding Flatland, even though many would deem it a "street" frame. Since Stew was in the area, he hooked up with Ryan to get his take on why Flatlanders, and Street Riders, should be checking out this frame.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
