Adam Banton has officially left Duffs. Here's a statement from the Duffs site:

"These are always weird things to talk or write about, but after almost 9 years, Adam and DuFFS have parted ways. I want to sincerely thank Adam for all of the contributions he's made to the company over the years. He has been a great person to work with, and will always be a friend. You'll be missed. Thanks again for all of your hard work. It's been a pleasure. Good luck."

Heath Pinter has been involved with Giant's BMX program for ten years. As we announced last week, the program is coming to an end at the end of this year. Here's what Heath had to say about it:

"As  most of you have heard Giant Bicycles will not move into 2010 with its current BMX program. This will end contracts between Taj Mihelich, Corey Bohan and my self. Giant will still produce BMX bikes and use more of a Grass Roots approach to promoting there BMX line. It has been a great ride, this capped my tenth year with Giant. For the last ten years some of my best friends have been a part of Giant BMX in one way or another. I would like to thank Giant for all the support over the years, all the great times and everyone who has been a part of Giant BMX. Giant is a great company and I wish them the best moving forward. Thank you Taj and Corey for your support.
