haha punk. okay, one more. pics were taken by macmx. bike belongs to pharrell williams, ever heard of him?
WOW! I am surprised that a person of his....ummm...errrr....uhhhh... "lifestyle" would have such a sweet ass bike.

Not my flavor of music per say but I hear he is "really talented". I guess he for sure has good taste in bikes anyway. Do you know if he was turned onto bikes recently or actually rides or what?

the point was that "taiwanese" does not equal crappy bike now.

exactly, taiwan has some of the worlds best bike welders, and they take pride in what they do and produce top notch stuff.

for you guys who does not agree with that, well, think of all the big names that have their bikes made there, or better yet, buys their designs from "asian catalogue" bike designers.

design is a matter of taste IMHO, but the quality is high, as high as anywhere else if not higher.. i have outmost confidence in my taiwan made GT LTS and Planet X JF frames

I think all of us who own BMW's and us who have been at 16 Powers know the quality of BMW. Taiwan doesn't not equal crap, correct. Call me a stupid Dane but my devotion towards BMW goes way beyond normal sense, and I am not a guy who is easily impressed. Growing up in a family where dad, mom and brother are all engineers helps you judge quality on such things as bikes very easily. I have no doubts. Period. (that not saying that all bikes from BMW in the future will be or in the past have been 100% top notch. You can always get a bad batch of tubes.) But BMW are defintly the best bikes I have seen.

Finally got around to posting my pics huh TMX? I think we should just leave that damn sexy fq here without further comment, and see what people make of it.

PS: you would die if you saw all the pictures I have of those fq's... :drool:

all i know about this is second-hand news so for whatever that's worth...i heard pharrell bmx'd as a kid...not sure to what extent, nor what his plans are for his two fq's. someone said they spotted one in a jay z video, but i like to think they're getting more play than as a video prop.

i was hoping for more drooling. (just kidding lexx!!)

edit: marcus, i have been way too patient with you about those pics....and now you tease further!!! crazy dane indeed.

I guess showing a bit skin won't hurt. PS: sorry about the bad quality. I had to tone it down so people wouldn't notice all those horrible bubble-welds. :nopity:

I love everything but the seat, looks like a f*cked up bird beak or something...one of those nice squishy BMX seat would be nice though.

I like playing in the sand. Especially when I'm the one with the shovel and bucket, while other poeple have stuffed animals. What's good about them in a sand box.

TMX - One would think that when one has time to linger around forums one would have time to answer ones emails.
