www.bizhouse.com, 2002 : We are not trying to reinvent the wheel. Bike products have been around forever. Not too long ago bike companies emerged that were rider owned and operated. These companies have came and gone over the years. Bizhouse is now here and we are not going anywhere, not for a long time. Every product for freestyle has probably been invented, how many of these products are we actually happy with? What I am trying to say is that these other products are good, the parts work fine but guess what? That's right they are not perfect and have not evolved much. Bizhouse is about evolution and about evolving bicycle freestyle components to the state of perfection. We want Bizhouse components to be, "da shiznit". An example would be the dia compe tech 77 levers. They have been widely used for years and I always thought they were great. Just recently Odyssey came out with the modulever. Now I never questioned that tech 77 were not the best until the modulever's showed up on the scene. Now when I compare the two I think the 77's are crap. This is one of our goals at Bizhouse; yes we want to make other bicycle components look like crap!

Shawn White is the father of this booming company entitled Bizhouse. Why Bizhouse? Well, if you know White you would know he is always busy and always in, "da house". The company is a collaboration of friends from different educational backgrounds. About 95% of the Bizhouse team has some type of college background from masters to bachelors degrees, we have all areas covered. Since we are all riders and since we are always thinking, we constantly refine our ideas, bounce them off each other and as a result superior bike products are born.

We are definitely out to sell these products. Some are not the cheapest out there but pound to penny they are far superior to other products. Our goal as a team is to keep making people happy by designing stuff that riders like. As we accomplish this we will pour our money back into the company and give more riders jobs, make more parts, sell more parts, make more money, hire more riders, pay health benefits, make more parts! Do you see the pattern? It is all circular and an ongoing process. In an analogy Bizhouse is a snowball that has just started to roll baby! So get on or get out of the way!
