As seen in S&M’s 1994 catalog: The 1994 Heavy As Fuck freestyle frame is what “Bio Air” Bennett and the rest of the S&M stunt boyz go to work on. Over-sized 4130 chromoly construction throughout, straight-gauge head tube, machined BB shell and chainstay-mounted 990 bosses of course. Want more, young hero? Say goodbye  to bent axles, thanks to the HAF’s flame-cut 5/16″ thick dropouts. Boss equipment indeed. This radical rid with the raunchy name has set the STANDARD for indestructible freestyle trickery.

From the 2004 S&M catalog: The new Challenger frame has become a pretty hot number with avante garde hot dogs across the U.S. of A. It’s constructed of aircraft-grade 4130 chromoly and TIG welded for optimum strength and performance. The Challenger’s rear end features a monostay for stiffness, chromoly dropouts for strength, and press-fit head tube reinforcement rings to resist fore/aft fork movement. This lightweight contender comes in Pro and Pro XL sizes to fit even the most finicky Moto monsters.

Every Challenger comes with a top tube-mounted gear chart that flat reeks of trickness. Challenger forks are designed light, tight and out of sight to slip silently past flying cones and ruptured hay bales during intense berm warfare sessions. Watch the lights carefully, my son, lest ye be bitten by the bear.log in again

Team rider 1992-1998

Mike was originally from Bethlehem PA but moved to CA in the early 90′s to live at the POW house and was way ahead of his time with bar spin variations, crank flips, and all sorts of burly tech moves on dirt, mini ramps and street. He had really good parts in 44 Something and BMX Inferno that influenced a whole  new generation to ride differently. Griffin could skate good too and prided himself on having bad tattoos! He left the team in 1998 to ride for Metal Bikes.
