We got Nick and Andrew from Animal on the show during Interbike 2012 to talk about what they’ve got going on for 2012. Topics covered:
- We run through Animal’s new seat, pedals and a new tire
- I ask them about the apparel side of the business and how Lil Wayne ended up wearing the stuff (shockingly, he paid full price)
- I ask them about Animal doing American made bike parts
- We talk about the state of BMX’s Interbike presence
- I try to get them to drop some information about how the recent Animal video, ”Foreign & Domestic” that dropped exclusively via digital download (go buy it, it’s amazing)
- Animal won’t be making a 9.5″ rise bar any time soon
- I ask about the challenge of remaining authentic while moving as much stuff as Animal does
- We talk about the changes the Skavenger frames have seen going into 2013
- I ask if Davey Watson is still on Skavenger pro
- I ask if Animal will ever become a mainstream streetwear brand
- Nick addresses the issues they’ve had with the Animal front hub guard (it’ll be out by February… maybe)
cant see it.
Videos private.
fixed
Cheers dude, and thanks for asking my question to them about the hub guard! Ha made me chuckle
Eric Hesselbo if you need a guard right away, éclat works with the front Javelin hub.
I really like all these interbike videos you guys been doing.
thanks!

Those I wonder how that new MM tire feels I want to test that out
I just came from watching Looper. Looper was much much better than this video. With that being said I still enjoyed this.
I should also mention Animal better get used to making big ass tires. This frame that will be popping out soon laughs at anything under a 20" x 3.0" http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8458/8034462909_19004fb6fb_c.jpg.
Nick Benson dude your cool.

TCU TV Rules! Great job!
What about the long butcher pegs!!?
Volume was lacking a bit in this one for me but still so good. Always loved animal and always stoked on the moves they make in the industry.
The éclat pulse guards fit I have a animal front with duel guards.
