Description: Before there was Torker BMX, there was a small family-owned and operated a company called Texon, run out of a garage in Anaheim Hills, California. Founded in 1975, the company was set up to design and build BMX racing frames. The following year, the company was renamed Johnson Engineering, and by year-end, it was renamed again, to Torker. The Johnson Engineering name was still attached for many years, most often in ads and on the head tube decals, but would eventually be phased out altogether as Torker BMX became a major player in high end BMX race bikes.
