When Ten Pack Distribution closed last year, there was word going around that Darcy Santucci was going to be going full force with Macneil Bikes one again, really revitalizing the brand and giving it life again. Since then, we’ve seen a handful of new products, a full length DVD and a handful of other things that indicate things are definitely happening. Well, today we get a look at another part of that plan. Here’s a video giving you a run through of their full range of complete BMX bikes from the 16″ Prospect all the way up to their top of the line Limited. After you check out the video, you can get a better look at each bike right here.
Evolutions: BMX Seats and Posts
After we dropped that Evolutions of the Seat Post Clamp post the other week, we heard a lot of really positive feedback from people that were just psyched to see all the changes and be reminded of their past. We also got a pretty good discussion going on BIKEGUIDE that lead to us talking about other parts that would be cool to look back on.
I kept thinking about all the changes we have seen and I think one of the easiest (well, they’re all pretty easy to see) things to see a huge change in are the seats and posts on our bikes. Not only because of the different technology, but also just how trends have affected the way BMX seats have been designed over the years.
Before I get into this, I want to say this is NOT supposed to be an exact history and more or less a nostalgic look at the past and how far we’ve come (or stepped back) over the past 10 years or so. Alright, let’s do this!
