Flying W ESP Stem (3rd Generation)
Flying W BMX products are the makers of the ESP Stem and were out of Washington state.
They started selling their stems (I believe) early to mid 1983 mainly advertised in ABA Action newpaper.
Owners were Marty Ehnat (racer) and his father Walt (ABA announcer and track director in the Pacific North West).
"Eddie Sigmund Products"
Eddie Sigmund was a well known Skyway racer and had a company around the mid- 80's.
His company was called ESP for Eddie Sigmund Products.
Eddie Sigmund Products is not the company that made the ESP Stem, Flying W made the ESP Stems.
Although Eddie was mainly a racer, he was featured in a Skyway freestyle ad.

"Redline introduces the Forklifter system; still one of the cleanest and most precision chromoly handlebars ever created. The 4-piece bar featured capped/curved ends and welded-on numberplate tabs, to fit the pre-formed Forklifter plate."
