When you work at a bike company, you get lots of email from kids with ideas for new parts, questions about how to get a job in the industry and just about a million others. Not so long ago, Chris Harrison, the product designer for Federal Bikes was one of those kids. Chris was going to school for Engineering and needed to do an internship, he hit up Federal and things grew from there. I’ve become friends with Chris over the past year and thought it would be dope to ask him a few questions about what he does and hav him give some tips to kids who want to be where he is one day. Chris is a rad guy, and aside from designing all the products for Federal, Chris is still in School studying for his Masters and he is the new team manager for Lotek in the UK.

Heath Pinter has been in the magazines for as long as I can remember and for some reason, I’ve always associated him with doing cool stuff… Whether it’s having a crazy color scheme on his bike years ago, building hot-rods, or hanging out with celebrities, Heath’s done it. He’s also taken on a larger roll with all of his sponsors. Rather than just being a rider, Heath does a lot of behind the scenes stuff like being a team manager, or working with big companies to build BMX programs. We hit up Heath to chat about all of the above and we also asked him to tell a few stories about NFL player Lonnie Paxton, one of Heath’s good friends and one of the craziest dudes I’ve ever met!
