Not too long ago, two familiar names in the BMX industry, Sean Curran and Mike Brennan, announced that they were making some moves and going all in and launching a brand of their own. Shortly after that news popped up, word about Merritt started floating around. Over the course of a few months, they slowly announced a hell of a team and introduced a few products that these two were working on.
One of those products in particular were some signature bars for the one and only Brian Foster. Once these bars became available, I knew I needed to get my hands on a pair to give a go.
Doing a review of handle bars isn’t exactly something easy to do because either they hold up or they don’t. I haven’t broke a pair of bars in about 10 years so I figured instead of trying to tell you they haven’t broke in the 2 months I’ve been running them, I’d give you guys a closer look at just what make these special. Let’s take a closer look.

Sneak Peek: Merritt – Charlie Crumlish Grips
Spotted this over on The Merged. It looks like Merritt is working with team rider, Charlie Crumlish, on a signature grip. Word is that it will be softer, slimmer and longer than ODI’s longneck grips and will have the BMXfu snowman logo on it. No release date yet, but I’d imagine they’re getting close.
