Your Grail bike/frame...
hunterdubber:
I live and always have lived in the same old small town in the North .
BMX must have been real big here comparatively , going from what alot of comments I;ve read
We had plenty of areas on spareland dug out for ramps and makeshift pipes.
The local leisure centre held an indoor racing and Chorley track was only 15 mins away
Every man and his dog had a BMX and people I rode with had
1 MK1 Pro burner ,MK2 Supergoose ,2 DB HLT , 3 P.K Rippers , 1 Skyway T/A , 1 Pro Class , 1 E.T Kuwahara ,1 Kuwahara laserlite ,1 Black chrome GT, 1 Redline PL20, 1 Torker Torkflyte, 1 Torker Pro X , 2 Prolite CCampbell, FST , 1 Haro Freestyler gen 1 , 1 VDC Changa ,ALL lived in my town ,but I don't recall anyone owning a JMC or a Quad
Besides the countless Falcon Pro Beta, zeta, Theta , sigma
I thought every town was the same or lots lots more ???
, but having said that alot got a BMX for christmas and left the hobby after about 12 to 18 months :-\

My 1st BMX was a 2nd hand Ripper (2 serial #) and always loved the SE adverts and reviews and from then on SE was the brand for me.
More pics of your grail frames/bikes would be cool 8)
So all my grail frames are frames that I never saw in the flesh but know of from way back, I'm lucky enough to have to of the 3 frames.

There only one ""grail"" for me now. The Haro anniversary frame. I want to sell my Hoffman big daddy to partly finance the purchase of components that will build a carpet queen and then also build another one to ride.
Or should I say three? the 3rd to hang on the wall.
Or four? the fourth as an investment........
Dammit!!! you could keep going with this. At least I have listed my ideas in correct priority order.

It was Simon who found it you cuddly fool...... I just brokered the deal.....
And you are one lucky boy indeed. I would love to find my Mongoose Cali with my old postcode stamped on it. Bought about half a dozen on th off-chance over the last few years but no such luck......

My Torker. Built exactly as I had it in 1985 except the re-issue tyres (as I ride it) and I have swapped out the '87 Torker bars for something a little older. I need blue ODI mushroom's too :(
The bike I always lusted after after seeing Glen's. The estate's spoilt brat :yahoo_silent: :D
