Wanna-be Mike Aitken

AYE!

Not many BMXers have a huge collection of signature products to choose from across the board. Mike Aitken is a grand exception though. Enter this comp HERE
You probably want to know what's up for grabs. First and foremost is the Fit Aitken Series 3 frame. The Aitken Series 3 is constructed of 4130 Supertherm chromoloy, featuring a low stand over height, Mid B/B, integrated headset, short 13.75" chainstays, a 75 degree head angle and top tube choices of 20, 20.5, 20.75 and 21". The Aitken Series 3 weighs in at less than five pounds and is made in the USA. Rounding out the hardware is a selection of Aitken-inspired products from Odyssey, including signature Aitken tires and seat. The Aitken tires are front and rear specific. Front is full knobby with a smooth, fast center tread and a single ply lightweight sidewall. Rear is less aggressive with dual ply sidewalls. Both lightweight, ready for abuse. The Odyssey Aitken seat features an old school feel complete with black denim, 7mm chromoly rails and a weight of 10.6 ounces. But that's not all. Lotek are throwing down Aitken Nightwolf shoes, Lotek Aitken slim fit jeans and the Aitken-inspired Nightwolf t-shirt. Nightwolf shoes are mid-top, available in black or brown and designed by Aitken himself, as are the jeans and t-shirt. Basically, you can't get much more Aitken-ized unless you move to Salt Lake City and start doing the best one-footed 360 inverts in the biz....
