Rock band
or BMX pros? With A
Bad Thing you can
never be really sure about
it... No but seriously, A Bad
Thing is one of the hottest
BMX Flatland companies at the
moment. In addition to Nora
Cup winner, contest winning
machine and web video banger
Matthias Dandois, A Bad Thing
team manager Alain Massabova
has probably the illest team
right now consisting of Alex
Jumelin, Raphaël Chiquet,
Alexis Desolneux, Terry Adams
& Ucchie.

Have you heard anything
about Mukiflat yet? The Trial
Company Koxx became involved
in BMX Flatland in 2005 and
developed their first flatland
frame in co-operation with
Mustapha Meghaizerou. They
quickly added Sam Foakes as a
team rider and Mukiflat gained
recognition throughout the
scene.
In 2007 the big bang
parallel to Mukiflat happened:
Alex, Alexis, Matthias and
Raph all left their longtime
sponsors at the same time and
joined the "rock band"
A Bad Thing
under the management of Koxx.
And these guys seemed to have
learnt their lesson: with the
addition of Alain Massabova
(Bruder von St
Martin Owner Manu) they
got a skilled man on board
with a lot of industry
experience. This dude can look
back to almost half a century
of BMX experience and is also
the editor-in-chief at Cream
Magazine. So this pretty
much guarantees you a perfect
marketing! Since then the
A Bad Thing
team is on wolrd tour and will
definitely show up at a
contest near you!
This is really positive:
all A Bad
Thing team riders are
closely involved in the
product development process,
which is pretty clear when you
look at the products: just
hardcore Flatland! A Bad Thing
stuff is characterized by
clean lines paired with high
functionality. Just have a
look at the fork or the pegs
and you know what I mean. So
if you wanna be part of the
"band" then there is no way
around A Bad
Thing!
