Hes not listed on the team anymore (although bender is finally on the page) http://www.bansheebikes.com/team.html#

Nigel, from what I have seen, had a really violent way to ride bikes. Kind of hard to explain but instead of being flow and working with finesse he would force the bike to do everything. Really cool to see. To see him beside Dylan Termblay was like seeing black and white (figuratively). Dylan would be smooth and flowing...nigel would pop, whip that bike into position.

i agree on the violent impression, which is exaggerated by his running 24" wheels. seeing him ride in person at the skatebarn was cool tho, as he was just attacking this one grind until he got it

funny how Derek's pictures always LOOK like his pictures, even if it didnt have the photo credits on the bottom, you could probably pick them out of a line up. :thumb:
