In my experience with being an active member of a bunch of different discussion forums, covering a variety of topics, over many years, one thing has been constant. Calling a Mod a "liar" and/or questioning their decision, is generally not taken very well. Based on the other content in that thread, I'm quite surprised that another name wasn't added to The List.

As the offended party that surprised me as well. Actually disappointed is closer to the truth.

There actually were high quality BMX bikes with a Schwinn connection. In the late 90s Waterford built BMX frames for the Standard company. Waterford credits this venture with improving tig skills and keeping them afloat for a number of years.Waterford history
