Rumor: Rich Hirsch Starting A Bike Company Called “Stranger”.
by adam on 10/28/09
Not much of a rumor since I know it’s a fact, but Rich Hirsch has a bike company in the works. I believe it’s called “Stranger” and word is that it’s going to be all American made. No word on the team or anything yet but I’m hitting him up now for an interview so look forward to that.

shawn mcintosh sig frame in the works nigga!!!!!
comes with free cigs!
hahaha…that would be sick
More American made!!!!!
Nice lizard
fuck yeah
when does the Stranger Danger frame come out?
the shit rich does is rad, but arent there already too many bike companies out there? its not a real big market. I guess his shit will be good and take the sales from some other brand tho
Yeah but how many GOOD brands are there in your opinion?
How many are good? Stranger certainly isn’t going to increase that number at all. It’ll be in the scumbucket with Cult.
thats why you didnt leave ur name cuz ur a scum bag…get a life
Fit, S&M, Solid, Volume, Macneil, We the People,Sunday, Kink, FBM, Mutiny, Fly, Standard, Subrosa . I would say there are quite a few pretty good bike brands out already.
Man fuck all that..
S&M for life
MAN fuck all that
just buy an S&M
sometimes i like to sit on my hand, until it goes numb, then masturbate
i feel you my man
I seriously thought I was the only one. high five
haha INBETWEENERS!!!
We call that giving yourself a “stranger” my friends
kinda sucks i found. cant move the hand when its all numb, therefore no good grip.
havent done that since they took porn off the bord.
most other companies arnt this AMERICAN. (except S&M, FBM, and probly a few others)
S&M made in America.. Build by illegal immigrants. Nothing more American than that.
This is awesome. Enough companies selling the same asain frames
wow.what skate company will he rip now? will him and morales have to make sure they don’t rip the same one? he doesn’t know how to make shoes, will his frames fall apart too?
My throwbacks have gone through hell and back for 2 1/2 years, and still have life in them. 69 bucks well spent. My black denim enns shoes lasted for two weeks no less. 59 bucks down the drain.
Man LOTEK is bunk..
why the fuck would i buy a frame from him
Man you should have hit Lotek up for a warranty on those they hook it up!
please god no. please make rich hirsch stop.
this is GOD hi. please please stop talking to me. You’re really wasting my time and also you’re a douchebag. I should have made you a pile of dog shit at least you would be fulfilling your purpose. Anyway, one more annoying comment and I strike you down dead. WORSHIP ME.
God isnt real dude. Also it’s time to gett off skateboarders nuts guys. Own up and be BMX’er enough shitty comparisons already
It’s about time to boycott this tawain shit and get kids on real bikes again
<3 american made bikes
what a gay name
So is the name eleventeen
so is “stranger”
still better than cult
if the frames are going to be the same quality as lotek, its gonna be fun to watch them snap from bunnyhopping curbs
and i’m gonna have fun watching yo chump ass snap in half since i bet you can’t even bunnyhop a curb motherfucker. lotek is the sssshhhhit stranger will be DOPE
who gives a fuck!
Cool name… Website?
Prabably just rider FRONTED like lotek. Hes a good face.
wtf are you talking about?
Lotek is backed by tip plus and rich is just a sort of manager. Or at least thats how it was the last time I checked but im not all up-to-date on this bmx stuff.
Lotek is rider owned. Send them an email an youl see who responds. Try that with any other company.
No it aint. I send an email to Donald Trump the other day – guess what? An employee answered it on Big Don’s behalf.
you are officially retarded if you think Lotek is rider owned. Rich doesn’t own Lotek hahahaa.
silly kids. i bet you also thought Robbo owned Fit!
It’s rich@lotekbrand.com if you got any questions
so whos going to be on the team
will they sell the parts at danscomp?
rich went from preppy(blueprint, salvation) to thug(obvious lotek, redline, subrosa) now what? dude is fixed on self image i guess.
wtf how are you gunna judge that fools life on the clothes he wears
you been wearin the same fit since 3rd grade?
i bet thats why you got so many bitches on ya tip hu?
his image defines half of BMXs image. Gotta recognize a trend setter from the trend followers kiddys.
he is quite the trend setter so all u fuckin haters put your lotek shirt on an get ready for a stranger
by trend setter, do you mean how he took a well established style from NW skaters after it had been around for about a decade?
“you mean how he took a well established style from NW skaters after it had been around for about a decade?” You have literally no fucking clue what you are talking about fucking retard kid. You’re embarrassing yourself. How about the next time you fucks want to leave a dumbass comment on how Rich ripped skateboarding why don’t you do us all a favor and start using that underdeveloped brain of yours to take your typing finger and stick it up your ass.
How can he bite the style of the town he lives in? Don’t that make it the style? Is Nigel biting NYC style? Biting is taking shit not from your actual life.
it doesn’t matter where he lives. He just hopped from one fashion to another one. Those guys actually have a lifestyle, for better or worse, and I guarantee you rich ain’t pals with them.
and mike, did you actually refute anything I said, or did you just call me a kid and tell me to do something with my finger? Usually when someone is shouting retard, you expect them to say something more intelligent than that. I can see how you’re the type to fall head over heels for the lotek/rich hirsch image though. He needs people like you.
Somebodys bitter… Hahahaha, Couldnt get free Loteks?
Have you ever been to the Northwest? That’s how everyone dresses not just the skateboards LOL.
Oh wow, hi is going to lecture me on intelligence. It would be easier to refute you hi if you actually brought up valid points or said something of relevance. Rich is where he is in the bmx industry because he fucking cares about riding not getting dressed. Why don’t you follow suit-quit the fashion column and try getting on a fucking bike.
ya cus the bmx industry isnt saturated enough already… protip: american made, means nothing anymore.
And what frame company do you work for? Everyone that rides knows you can beat an American made S&M frame
Protip… American made means your frame won’t dent/bend the first week. Ride a S&M, FBM, or Solid and then ride a subrosa or any of the other identical frames and you will see the difference.
I’ve seen more S&M’s and FBM’s break than any other company!
your so full of shit i can smell you from here.
Let me guess your eastern grim reaper has lasted you for years!!!
Lol that’s for real
this company is going to be a “stranger” to high quaility
What ever you Think,,or do you Think Douche Bag,,better hang on “Stanger” is what it is and what it will be………..
best. quote. ever.
best. quote. ever.
*except for the part where quality is spelled wrong.
i want to know what this company will offer me, that another company doesn’t already have.
a cock in your mouth douche bag if you dont like it dont buy it…fuckin faggets
ya motha fucka…wat eddie said
yah motha fucka…wat space invader said
sweet dude, good luck, blazeguard is down
Primo owns Lotek
Then why does everyone still Hate Primo?
can’t wait to see the bikes. i bet it flops like all the other shit he puts out. check his track record. real talk deah!!!!
Fuck everyone for hating, Niggas have one life to live so you better get on the street and make some fucking moves! rich has done so much dope shit and covered so many areas of bmx! hes just doing what he wants and just does what he wants to get done. can you say that?
word…
Truth.
word…
What the fuck have any of you (and this includes myself) done for BMX. hmmmmmmmmmm nothing! Least Rich is trying. we should all kill ourselves. You all first then i swear ill follow…
What the fuck have any of you (and this includes myself) done for BMX.
rich is mad legit, it will probably be top notch quality with a real good brand and team behind it.
Lotek is real good, this should be too. You kids just love talkin shit
it duznt matter where the frame is made, its made by ppl who cant speak english
everyone with a negative comment probably doesn’t even know how to run a buisness. unless you are in the undustry you cant talk plain an simple.
and solid is the only usa made company i would trust right now, so i hope this company is as good a quality as solid.
as for non usa brands being weak……mmmm how many federal frames have you seen snapped? i never hear anyone bitching about how their WTP dropouts bent because of the pegs. how many people do you see complaining about how shitty their sunday is????
and nope needs to retire out of bmx and get into fashion cuz thats all he seems to care about.
FUCK YEA BRO
http://www.strangerbmx.com?
what happened to coast? at least that had a decent name
theyre strangers now.
to be honest i think rich needs to concentrate on the fact that Lotek’s goin down the shitter……..
considering the shoes have gradually got a whole fuckin lot worse……..
sort it out……
to be honest…go fuck yourself. Lotek’s not going down the shitter its fucking thriving and stranger will too. Rich is a good dude who has the riders in mind and that comes through in the product-not like all these other shitty corporate companies just trying to make a buck off bmx.
I’m sure it’s going to be made by Solid, so I bet it will be good quality, I had a KP Ripper and it was the shit!
haters everywhere. all of this stuff is only good for bmx.
It’s better then cult from the start. At least there’s not already a zine with that name.
I’m fucking stoked! STRANGER is sick. strangerbmx.com
Who’s the team?
I hope cult and stranger take over. Look how weak the ads are it’s like a zumiez clearance sale.
The team is gonna be dialed if its anything like the lotek team
which skateboard company is he gonna rip off now? this guy is a fuckin twat. not an original thought in his head.
He’s down for BMX at the end of the day when not many are. Let’s ask motherfukin Mike Aitken he quit Vans for Lotek remember.
john john john I know your life is really hard because you’re just so so stupid and you can’t achieve anything worthwhile no matter how hard you try because you’re just that dumb and ugly. but here’s a tip in making friends: don’t call people twats (unless they look and act and smell as bad as you) also make an effort to get smarter somehow. pray to god for a miracle or some way to scientifically alter your DNA.
Damn Rich’s momma must be commenting haha. Shit sounds dope though.
If you little kids knew how often those skate companies screw over you’re favorite riders by not paying them what was promised or just cutting the team altogether you wouldn’t be bowing down to them while they exploit bmx.
haha….its allready blowin up lookin at the comments allready tells me its gunna be a well known company….
Strangerbmx.com, check twice daily haters!!!
At least the videos will be good
gimmic #57 from rich hirsch. if its usa made its guna be made by s&m or fbm so essentially whats the point? more scooter frames and prolly fixies? gross.
So noone even commented on the fact that this is where all the FIT riders are gonna go! BAAAAZING
naw this aint cult u fuck
MR Dean go bury yourself in a huge mound of shit pleasse
LOTEK ain’t going down the shitter since theres still people buying the shoes. They have sick name so stop hating. STRANGER sounds dope. All you hater, get off the internet and do something roductive in BMX instead of shitting on anything that is trying to make it better.
i have nothing against rich he hooked me up with parts when i needed them he didnt have to but he did so i hope strager takes off
