Look up Johnny Chopper. Thats Gary's old company. He closed his doors not long ago. He lives in Bargara(Bundy) and still races to this day. Quite well too.
His brother is Paul and was selling caravans at one point.
This is Garys new company.

Just a little add on the red Quicky with the green pedals was my first ever bmx bike bought it just before we went to QLD.
Had to borrow the wheels and pedals just to get there.

Not twins, not even brothers as I recall.  Good friends though.
