Posted by: ,jake at June 17, 2008 03:35 PMVery nice indeed Taj, get in the studio while your up there! I'm sure you have already!
Posted by: Adam Banton at June 17, 2008 03:42 PMGiant Method, Mosh Method.. It's all the same! Taj is a BMX Legend though!!
Posted by: 20inchalchemy at June 17, 2008 08:41 PMwhy don't you guys make some red hazard lite's ?????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why did he leave T1 i thought he owned T1 or am i getting mixed up with someone else??
Posted by: tim mirra at June 18, 2008 04:10 AMTaj got out of T1 for his own reasons on good terms a while back. His frame sponsor is (obviously) Giant now.
It's just not right, Taj not being on a T1...
Posted by: VxD at June 18, 2008 04:24 AMshame to see taj doesnt rep anything from the amazing company he helped create.
Posted by: rom at June 18, 2008 05:22 AMtaj has moved on. why the hell cant everyone else in bmx do the same? its all bikes. he helped start t-1, an awesome company. give him respect for that, not critisizm (sp). taj likes to ride the bikes. cant hate on him for that in any way, shape, or form- no matter what bike he is riding. he is and always will be a bad ass on a bike, whatever brand bike parts he chooses to ride.
ps, not hating on you or your words rom. just something that has been bothering me for a while...
Posted by: bobby p at June 18, 2008 08:50 AMTaj is and will always be the man. And his bike setup is always sick.

Posted by: mad man at June 18, 2008 10:04 AMit's funny that nobody really gives a shit about this.
Posted by: mfnkev at June 18, 2008 02:13 PMI'd totally forgotten that Taj was riding for Giant. Sigh.

do you mean "T1 (custom giant stickers)"?
Posted by: canks at June 19, 2008 03:47 AMwhen I saw is bike, I thought for myself what kind of T1 frame was he riding, like a prototype or something... but then reliased that was a giant... alot of respect for him
Posted by: pedro at June 19, 2008 06:50 AM"do you mean "T1 (custom giant stickers)"?"
I mean Taj gave him all new frame geometry to build him a custom frame. And special colorways too.
Posted by: Jim B at June 19, 2008 09:26 AMNice rig, Taj. Keep it veggie powered.
Posted by: S.Bros at June 19, 2008 09:38 AMim gettin taj expierience right now!
but he dont talk much says jamie
i know why, but i just have to cry out (caps)why not T1???(caps).i read what he had to say about getting on giant and i think i understand, it was a very respectable move but damn.T1 has always been and will forever be equal with taj and joe for me!(and the best brand)
Posted by: e at June 21, 2008 04:04 PMi'm 100% aware that director forks have a "bent" look to them. i'm a huge fan of the fork and design, and know what they look like.
looking at this bike, i honestly think it looks like he managed to bend his fork about half way down the legs. maybe it's just the picture..
on that note, has odyssey gotten any of these back for warranty?
