***BMX FACTOR - 2017 - ENTRANTS***
Gra_goose:
There have been so many stand out bikes this years it’s been unbelievable you’ve only got to look back over the BOTM entrants to see the quality of the builds of late, but for me the ole stand out build is Steve Jones Limit Fabrications (Hoffman) Punisher.
This is would have been Jay Mirron’s signature frame had he stayed with HB and not left to go ride for Schwinn. The bike was originally designed by Chris Gack, but never made it past the one off prototype stage. This frame was recreated to the exact spec using the original designs supplied by and with the blessing of Chris Gack himself. It has since been built up with era appropriate parts and was on display in the mid school area of this years MK17.

Got it! Thanks Dan. :daumenhoch:
Right then, let's crack on with this! There have already been some stunning bikes in this thread alone (I love that Trickstar 2 and I'm not even a freestyle guy) but I need to look no further than one of my favourite builders on here - markyp - for my favourite bike on RAD! Of the many great bikes that have come out of sunny Weymouth, it's this '82 Patty Long that gets my juices flowing every time I see it. In fact, the Redline 500a that I'm working on at the moment is inspired by this beauty. My dream bike with the XXX factor! Love it!!! :smitten:

I think that may have been Lee Morris (Moza's) bike.
Good choice.
