well either way it makes me feel better. I could see how we misunderstood what they where trying to do. But it still doesnt change the fact that they shouldnt be sawing scooters in half in the first place hahah

I mostly ride BMX and scoot on the side, when my bike is broken and such. I have always liked Colony, and supported them, but I will never buy another product of theirs new. Maybe if its second hand, but they dont get the money that way. I personally think this would be OK, if they were donating to more unfortunate kids, like ones that never get anything on Christmas/Xmas.

haha page removed. Success!

And whoever sent them gay porn, my hero <3

I quote [Colony BMX]:

Seems a few people out there got rather upset about our plan to trade in scooters on a BMX purchase. This was never the intention & as such would like to re-launch our program.

This promo was aimed more at scooter riders that are moving into BMX and to get them psyched on riding. The comment about getting rid of scooters was more a joke about how many scooters there are at parks here in Australia. We are sorry for any confusion we caused with the way we previously worded this giveaway.

A couple people had a good idea to donate any of the scooters sent in to a charity which we will now do.

Thanks and sorry again for any confusion.

* Purchase any 2011 Colony complete bike between December 1st & January 10th, 2011.
* Post in a rideable scooter, along with a copy of your purchase receipt for your new bike, along with your
full return contact details. All rideable scooters received will be donated to a charity of our choice.
* We will send you a free ‘Welcome to BMX’ package worth over $100.00 retail of Colony products.
* Offer valid to the first 50 scooters received by January 14th, 2011.
* One scooter trade in per bike purchased only.
* Only valid to Australian purchases within Australia.
* Send your scooter to…

Charity? What the fuck? You've got to be kidding me, they're trying to get themselves out of this shit. Still, I earned a little respect back for them for apologizing... sort of...

i don't think giving to scooters to charity will keep them of the steets of oz ?
which is why they made it in first place -i bet they are still going to destroy them..

They are just saying that to try and get themselves out of it.
That was their intention, but it backfired on them, so now they are trying to say they had different intentions.

they're just scared of the big penis of a lawsuit ramming their asses
Why would they get a lawsuit? They aren't targeting people, they are targeting scooters. It's not like they are asking to send in a scooter rider and then they will execute them...

Like honestly there's nothing they can do that is that wrong. They can't just steal your scooter and cut it up.
