Yeah, why not just EP from BMW? I do EP's from everyone, even if we don't order through Quality / J&B. Chrome & Ritchey come to mind.
Even if you can't EP from BMW, I still say you should support them. I was on the train one morning and ran into a guy who rides for their BMX squad, awesome guy, we talked the whole the ride and was really cool. I know that's not a reason to order from a company, but when I ordered from Ritchey, it took THREE WEEKS just for them to process my order, then they sent me TWO packages because the first was wrong, and I had to send one back, yet, I was charged for both and would "see the credit" once the wrong one was received.
