thats pretty cool  :coolsmiley:

It's basically the Bravo KT from 86 with the added tube between the seatpost tube & the down tube, it came out in 87 but only has a tri-moly construction whereby the KT was full chromoly.

There's a girl in Australia who's mad in to design & in to customising her bmx's & she's just doing up her's the min in Hot Pink black silver & it looks sick !!!! She keeps an online diary of the builds on her website:

 You'll find Magicians are on ebay usa quite often, I was going to purchase one to go with my KT below but i'm short on space at the mo. Heres my KT (any excuse to post this as i love it)...

looks nice in Yellow  :coolsmiley: mine is in a scruffy faded survivor yellow & if was going to get it refinished thats the kinda shade i'd want  :daumenhoch:
i did manage to track down some NOS decals for it too.... :angel:

just looked on her site. looks ace in pink :shocked: :coolsmiley:
she also has some of the 6 spoke og skyways too although they put my grubby white ones to shame  :-[

Yeah she does seem to be able to find some nice bits & I love the pink, just done a hutch in the same colour. why don't you have a look at aqua blasting your skyways, theres a thread on the tech & rest section ?
