| Erick Bartoldus, www.fatbmx.com : Powerlite is an old school BMX company originally called Peddalpower started by a guy named Steve Rink, in Orange Ca. Then it was sold in the mid 80's to a guy I don't know. Then in 1990 Rich Long the (president of GT) purchased Powerlite and the rest is history. Powerlite is known for its Powerbend handlebars, and its high end racing frames and components. | ||
