You have to understand that the quality of materials used for parts now is a lot better. So is the engineering of these parts.

I tacoed a alex triple wall rim once but rode harder on a Hazzard Lite that wouldn't warp at all.

Back when bikes were heavy, companies had to just use technology and materials factories had at the time. As time went on, they obviously became bigger customers and since other companies had their stuff made at the same place, they had more push to have different ideas implemented into the manufacturing.

However, UK Bike Co sucked.

No different to the baggy jeaned unwashed long haired lot of the 90s who were also too lazy to dig

There's always been a lot of shite in bmx , triple bolt seatclamps anyone ? and there will always be someone taking it a little too far . I'm glad that when a bike falls on you now it doesn't require all your mates to lift the thing off you .
