just logged on for the first time today,
i was stopped in the street by a fellow old school bmx'er, i was riding with my kids around the block on my very own c/c prolite.
he told me about this site so here i am.

will post some pics when i get my head round how this site works.

and hope to chat to some of you guys about old times.

thanks

wow nice to know theres still some c/c out there...not see another one since about 1989,as promised heres some pic's so far of the build/restore :daumenhoch:

right ok this is when i first went in to my mums loft to find her (c/c)











ok after getting her out of the loft i sat her in some white vinager for 24hours



then wash her down with some water and f/liquid





after this i dryed her and hug her up nex day i sprayed her with a degreaser and washed back down

ive masked her up ready for paintinga,,she came up all right after her pampering..lol ;D







iv gave her 4 layers of primer each layer had a rub down with wet and dry using hot water and f/liquid and dryed well and left each time (its all about preparation preparation oh and ....yes you guest it preparation :daumenhoch:







i have done my first layer of top today tomorow i will lighty rub down with wet and dry 2000*  will keep you all posted on the build and hope you all can help with getting her back on the road :Great_Britain: :daumenhoch:

Hello and welcome mate, I only got back into this in april after 20+ years out, since then I have built 4 bikes. I thought at the time that I would just get a goose to play out on then everything went crazy and I had to have more. love it :LolLolLolLol:
