Now I know these ain't everyones cup of tea on here, and no doubt there will be some moronic comments, but as its BMX i thought i'd share a thread from Burnerworld we have been running for the past few weeks......... :Great_Britain: :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:
During a recent discussion between myself, DaveMac, Spike371 and N13L VV on Whatsapp, we were talking about what framesets we had, and what we would likely build next.
It transpired that each of us had a Burner frame to build, and between us probably enough parts to complete a full bike each. Spike threw down a challenge that we should have a Burner build off!
Each of us would start with the frames we already have, and build each of our respective bikes one part a day from whatever we already have in our collections. Anything that any of us were missing to build a full bike, has been sourced between ourselves, by donating parts to each other.
We thought this might make a fun thread, therefore…here goes!
The first part will be fitted tomorrow, and everyone must fit the same part on the same day. Hopefully within a couple of weeks, each of us should have a complete bike built, and they will all be entered into the March BOTM competition for you guys to vote on.
Daily updates will be posted by each of us in this thread. We have decided to “try” to each keep the respective models of each bike a secret until they are all finished…not sure if we can achieve that, but should be fun trying!
