Wanted to do something different to the norm, 800p should really have chrome forks/ rear stays.
Change of pedals and stem then it 's finished 8)

yeah that looks nice, b45t4rd.
i'm thinking of doing the turquoise with chrome fork and rear triangle.

i missed on the "tab" forklifters on ebay........bummer  :'(  i put in a solid bid as well.

What are my chances of finding STR bars over here. Theres some straights on the bay in U.S.  but I want V's really. Spoke to Steve via P.M. he's not got artwork for 79 pads and is busy at moment. Really I need bars before I can decide on pads. Theres a few straights and one V bar pad up at moment.

that vendor on ebay is making it difficult for us non americans to bid, not only on the pads but other useful stuff he has. basically it looks like he/she dosn't want to pay the paypal cut. that's his/her perogative but it sucks as i don't believe a true bmx collector would do that. greed in our hobby yet again.

making repos sometimes is the only way around it, or be very patient as others will come up from TRUE collectors who ARE interested in helping others in this hobby.
the two 1981 redline padsets that i have took about 14 months to find (and more money than i'm willing to admit to myself  :D )

then again i've got a couple of metres of white vinyl and a 1980 proline sticker set sitting in the cupboard keen to become something  ;D

I've still got a Carerra frame and forks, brute stem and full set of original vinyl pads for sale if anyone is interested. Price suggestions welcome :daumenhoch:

Well some of the vendors who have the pads take paypal, but just don't deal international. Just been knocked back on some velcro ones (I know they're wrong era), knocked back on a vinyl bar pad. offered good postage rate on some STR bars, but will the customs stick it to me on them, and how much will it take to win them? Going to have a go at a straight bar pad, sellers got good rep on http://oldschoolbmx.com/community/index.php? I need to finish cars off and sell them to afford childrens cycle parts.  ;D tpsman7 and fasteddybmx seem to want to buy all Redline pads known to man.
