Title: Another 2nd class BMX from the beard Burner factory...
Post by: beard1973 on January 28, 2011, 02:13 PM: I don't build a bike for months and then I knock FOUR out in the space of 6 weeks.. :buck2: :buck2: :buck2: :buck2: :buck2:

As with the Mk1 Ultra & Mk1 Super Tuff.... this is another build for someone else.

I think like some of us he dreamt of an Aero Pro as a kid, and the Team Bikes are so iconic of British BMX... :daumenhoch:

The eagle-eyed of you will notice she is missing a decal on the base of the seatpost tube, but I do know where it is.. :buck2: :buck2:

I'm pretty pleased with how its turned out, the only thing I have trouble with is how 'white' the repro padsets are... they look a bit too new but its not as obvious in the flesh.

Hope you guys like it, the guy I've built it for is thrilled and he like many of us has got the bike he dreamt of as a kid back in the 80's.

Freewheel...not era correct :police:

The guy is planning on riding it... so frankly I aint getting that anal over this build, the cables are not era correct, the seat should be Raleigh stamped and the tyres are also a few years out of date for this build...

I didn't think I'd enjoy building old skool bikes for other people, but it is rather nice.. 8)
