Oh Man
Of all the things I've done in my life, I think starting a bike company and inspiring consumer lust makes me feel the most strange.

I say, make it a huge PR thing for Mission Bikes. When you fly in for the wedding, meet with the kid, take pics, invite media, and donate a used mission bike(or new). Then, write it off if you can. Cultivate the lust!
Evil marketing and maybe making a FB plea come true

I got into Brooklyn Technical High School & Art & Design High School. Two great schools.
I wanted Art & Design HS. My Parents made me go to BKT. My dreams were crushed. [my bold]
How can you fucking refuse him? Yeah he may seem entitled, but damn he wants to be an artist, not a code monkey. A Mission Bike could keep the artist alive.

John is spot on about the PR possibilities. At the risk of being evil marketer...This could be a way for Mission to tap into the Asian and "ass stronger & firmer" BF market. Should you pursue, have someone take video to post on FB and YT.
