So I've been asked a lot, is Colony a good brand? You might see Colony bikes or you might see Colony
0:05
parts on sale and you might be wondering if it's a good brand and the quick answer to that is in my
0:10
experience, yes. It's a really good brand and everything that they make has lasted me a long
0:14
time except for a pair of sweet tooth forks. That's the only thing. Right now on Dan's Comp
0:19
there's a handful of Colony complete bikes that are 30% off and these bikes at that price are
0:24
insane value. I've ridden a lot of Colony parts and on this bike that I'm currently, you know
0:29
customizing, I'm buying a lot more Colony parts because I've had such a good experience. I've
0:34
written a Colony Sweet Tooth frame from 2017 until now. No cracks, no breaks, no nothing. Before that
0:40
I've broken a handful of other frames. I won't name the brands, but there's a lot of different
0:44
brands that I've broken the frames. This frame held true, going strong. Bars. I've got Colony
0:50
Biomech bars on there, also five years old, no issues. I've had other bars that have broken a lot
0:55
quicker than that. So in my experience Colony has been incredibly good with their parts. Now they're
1:01
an Australian brand in the US it a little bit harder to get them you won see them everywhere but in my experience I really enjoyed riding Colony and I had a good experience with them There some other members in the community from Australia who also ride Colony and who also have a really good
1:15
experience with them. The only time that you're going to run into an issue with Colony parts is
1:20
on lower end complete bikes or lower end low priced parts. Just like any other brand, there
1:26
are low priced options in terms of parts and in terms of bikes. And by spending your money on those
1:31
low priced options, they're obviously not going to last as long as the higher quality options
1:35
It's the same thing if you buy low quality mission parts versus buying high quality kink parts or
1:40
low quality Odyssey parts versus high quality Odyssey parts or buying ramp parts versus shadow
1:45
parts. Okay. There are tiers to this and within Colony, it's no different. You can find high
1:50
quality parts. You can find low quality parts, but from what I've written, from what I've heard
1:54
these parts have lasted me a really long time. Colony is Dougster Bob approved. It's a great
1:59
brand and if you buy colony parts you will not regret it if you have a question about if another
2:03
brand is a good brand ask it in the bmx nerds network it's a huge community of bmx riders
2:08

2:12
