Glynnyboy:
A bump from the dead here. :)

Finally got the bike finished a year and a half later. I ended up wanting to stick a little more to how the bike looked parts wise than originally planned.
Here is how it turned out.
I took some pics yesterday then turned the bike over to my oldest daughter in the afternoon. My youngest has a mini supertuff burner i bult a while ago. So that's them both sorted for an old bmx now. Just the wife to go and we are all osbmx happy. :daumenhoch:


The bike is very close to being full spec for the 87/88 Californian pro.

One or two parts that are not spec have been substituted for parts that look the same/similar so as to keep an original feel to how the bike looked as far as the parts rundown is concerned.

The original grey finish has been changed for black and the decals/pads have been tailored to my personal choice requirements.
