I understand cruiser frames are part of bmx, I raced one 10 years ago. I just dont think Steve would pass up making a bit of money. Fixed is a popular thing right now, whether we like it or not, and he seems to recognize it. The frame is not that much different, and obviously there are BMX riders who ride fixed as well. If he made 100 of them, I'd bet he could charge 500 a piece (like bens does for the milwaulkee ), or more and sell all of them fast. The thing about BMX is that the market is limited to the people who want to ride a specific way. Make a fixed frame and almost anyone can ride it. So the demand is there, it is just whether or not he wants to deal with the trouble of putting it into production.
