MacNeil History
The story of
MacNeil
already started in 1997. Back
then Jay Miron and Jamie
McIntosh started Ten Pack,
Canada's first BMX mail order
service. The only problem was
that there were no
distributions in Canada. Out
of pure necessity Ten Pack
Distribution was founded and
the business mainly focused on
the distribution of BMX parts.
In 1998 Darcy joins the Ten
Pack Team and with this
addition
MacNeil is
getting started. Darcy had
already gained a profound
knowledge in the BMX business
with Basic Bikes where he
worked from 1993 till 1997.
Now as a part of the Ten Pack
Team he is anxious to develop
innovative BMX parts.
The rest is history. With
the clever press release of
MacNeil one
day after the X-Games the hype
starts. The Spanish Street
legends Ruben Alcantara is
announced as the first team
rider and adds to the
excitement - MacNeil is now a
solid institution in the BMX
business.
But it's not only the great
team that makes
MacNeil such
a strong player in BMX and
also increasingly in
Moutainbiking. Innovative
products with a great love for
detail contribute to the
success of the brand.
