We could not think of a better fit with Profile and our way of doing business.

1664 BMX Ltd has been in business since 1998 and is rider owned and operated. The distribution company is an arm of the 1664 BMX brand that produces, pedals, frames, rims and various other small parts. Tomaszewski acknowledged there are a lot of BMX rider owned and operated BMX companies, "But, what underscores 1664 BMX Distribution is our passion for the industry and a focus on customer service. Our company is designed to serve the needs of our customers keeping them aware of current stock and informing them about new products." He concluded that, in the end, through consistent communication, both shop and distributor can be successful.

The distribution agreement will start as soon as the first delivery of product arrives in Edmonton. In the meantime, 1664 is taking pre-orders for their first shipment from Profile Racing.
