Early Freestyle/Skatebowl inspired Kuwi build - FINISHED

(1/5) > >>

been looking at lots of piccies of that awesome period around 81-83 when freestyle came along but there weren't any dedicated bikes about yet. Lots of cool creativity in building race bikes into freestyle machines like we looked at in BMX Action Mag...

So to that end I managed to snaffle this lovely 1983 Chrome Kuwi KYZ (would have loved to get a KZ-1 but silly money) and hope to start building her up soon, the other pics are the sort of direction i'm going with this build...
