WARNING ! Budget build  :LolLolLolLol:

Well I hadn't planned on owning a wirewheel since they weren't actually made by BMX Products Inc. but instead by Ammaco under license for the UK market but I ended up getting this survivor as part of a "2 bike deal" with someone last year for a nice price.

It even had it's original brake pads and tyres !  :shocked:

Frame was in decent shape and the dropouts look like the rear wheel has never been off.

The tyres where a bit worn though so they got replaced as did the brake pads, scuffed grips and worn padset (had a nice original 84 survivor set so they went on) also replaced the scuffed generic levers with some NOS DC ones.

Everything else just got a good clean and polish and here is the result..........

Pretty much 99% factory spec.......
