hi guys total mood here and judging by all the tiny nuts bolts and bearings on ebay i am in too deep.

just bought a 1984 raleigh tuff brurner frame,forks,handlebars and 1 piece crank....now i am hoping someone special on here can tell me what else i am going to need down to the washers??...i know its a lot to ask but i really want to get into my bmx scene...i am already a vw camper nut and the 2 go hand in hand!

thanks everyone  :bow:

Good Place to start would be on Burnerworld .

Can fill your boots on there and always for sale items to help you finish it off .

Good luck , and you won't regret it , your wallet will though  ;)

Don't fall into the trap of thinking that people actually look at your nuts and bolts and judge you if you've not got the correct ones that came out the factory.

Unless you've got severe OCD, you don't need to go into that much detail when restoring, just build your bike to your own standard and to what your budget will allow, and ride and enjoy the fooker.  :daumenhoch:
