Greg and I have both been rocking the Fly Bikes Tierra frame for a little over a month now. While I chose the 21″ TT, Greg opted for the 19.6″ as it suits his flatland-influenced riding. Before that he was on a 20.6″ Fly Montana and before that a McNeil Travis Collier frame in a 19.5″ TT.

By now you’ve probably seen some of the clips of Greg that we’ve posted – shot on a Flip Cam!!! – so we figured we’d talk a little bit about why he went with the Tierra and how it’s been riding so far. Seeing as how Greg filmed an edit the day that he got the frame, it’s clear that he’s adjusted quickly! The Tierra is Kevin Porter’s signature frame from Fly and it just so happened that we ran into his uncle while riding at Cal Anderson park a little bit ago. Tom (if memory serves) was really stoked to find that we not only knew of Kevin Porter, but were both rocking his frame. KP (as he’s known in the BMX world) is a super creative and unique rider who does his own thing, but still shuts it down with tricks that everyone else is doing, too. A true professional.
