***CHARLES PATY INTERVIEW***

What to say or write about Charles? He is one of our earliest AUTUMBIKES team riders, a good friend and a big support since the very beginning on our travel through the BMX jungle. His style and riding is more than strong and stylish! From crazy Flatland tricks like multiple Nosewheelie G-Turns to Pedal Megaspins to stylish Street moves - he has a good time on his Katze frame! Charles is currently testing a new the Katze frame version and rides our new NARCOBARS plus ZEROFORKS ! Enjoy the next 22 questions we asked to Charles during a little dinner which we had when some of our Japanese friends visited Berlin together with him and his girlfriend Helene!
