I was out of bmx in 85/86 so these freestylers or outside of my knowledge zones, but that works!! White body with splatter, chrome tail & forks & bars. Really like that idea.

They did Rob. I had in mind of doing the Frame chrome and powdering over it in the original colour blue upto, just onto, chain and seats stays. I wanted to keep the Fork chrome if I done that, and do the bars chrome. I don't like the Pink colour and glad I was getting out of BMX before the pastel colours really tried to take hold. Just not my thang :-\
I'm just unsure if I should strip the original finish off the bars ??? If I don't, then I think the frame set should stay raw ???
I'm just really looking to see what others do if they had it, and before I go ahead with anything :daumenhoch:

This a custom '88. I had in mind the same thing with the finish on the frame and fork but do the bars chrome.
I also wanted the original blue on it and keep away from Black/Chrome
MartyC:
I'd go white, white frame, forks and bars; white freestylers look cool :coolsmiley:
oldschoolace:
Im inclined to say survivor build Terry but a raw frame doesnt really look survivor to me, especially clear coated.
I think in this case i would treat it as a signature/limited edition/high end bike they never built and go the chrome and powder route :)
