I reckon if it's not New School it's Old School.

Old School then has different era's within it: 70's (aka Vintage), early-80's, late-80's, 90's (aka Mid)...

So what's New School? Dunno. 2000 to 2011?

By my system your bike is Mid!

I think this has a lot to do with your age.  If you were around in the 'golden age' then I think old school is from when bmx started thru to late 80's.  if you're a young un, 10 years ago is a long time  ;)

You cant draw an exact line, but I reckon 70's/80's old school, 90's mid and the rest new.  Just my opinion though

Yeah I'm 13, but my view is what i said, but if it's about my age, then like 2003 is old school  :)

Old School!  (unless it has mid-school technology and geometry)

Nice!  Those look like the original forks too

yep... pretty much NOS with a few chips here and there - never had wheels in it.

To be honest I would have paid £150 for the frame and no forks! but to get all I got for that money I'm well happy.., ROb gt_lover got me a deal  :4_17_5:

I'd say Mid, my theory is  -

Old school, when I rode, up to about 1990
Mid when I didn't 1990 - 2002
New when i did again 2002>

But what do I know, its a very vague area, like my life!!!

Looks gay anyway!
