Love the Murray :smitten:

I do like a nice Murray myself :smitten:
but the budget New school 48 s wheels and tyres let it down big time :crazy2: ok for riding though :)
Replace with any old school survivor steels ,,CMC's etc ,for under £50 will make that bike killer :daumenhoch: :smitten:
It's a nice bike it deserves it :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:
Anymore pics of the bus ::) :4_17_5:

Nice job mate. And leave that old van behind the fence ;)

-
thanks again guys i shall up date the murray as soon as i get the wheels back .
jim mate joke away we all need a good laugh now and them :2funny:
i am really happy with how the bikes have tuned out i havent even taken them for a spin yet :) dont want to get them dirty :2funny:
could anyone let me know what tires would be better on the murray . i remember almost everything that came on it but cant remeber what type of tires it had i just know that they were all black . Mick the barn door is a 54 rhd needs resto which will begin soon :daumenhoch:
-
The early Murrays had black knobblies :daumenhoch:
I'm sure blue knobblies are still available :)
-
Murry :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: wouldn't mind one of those again if your doing the lesters yellow (spec with the blue frame) then the tires would have been blue knobbies big square ones :daumenhoch:
1980 :LolLolLolLol:

Top work John!I love the meteor-lite,reminds me of my first bmx!looks well with the LG forks!Is that another meteor-lite frame in the background i spotted??!!do you make it over for bug jam at all? :daumenhoch:
-
cool thanks for the replies now where do i get me some knobblies either black or blue :daumenhoch:
deemann i have never been to bug jam . its a show that i have been meaning to go to but something always comes up . i do get over to volksworld / peppercorn /and try to get to vanfest most years . plus a few smaller shows around essex when i get a chance .
the frame in the background is a falcon prostyler (think thats rite) i got the frame and forks from oldschoolflava off here back in march :daumenhoch:.
hopeing to do the mid school GT (going oldskool with it ;) ) and my fugi mx 500 next (another old skool cheepie ;D )
then the falcon and a magnum bmx . (there seems to be a cheepie bmx theam going on here :2funny: )
i also have a few more but burner seems to be a dirty word around here :2funny: :2funny: but i have 2 mk1s and a mk2 .
i did have a halfords team turbo but i cant find it in any of my sheds i may have cut it up :-[
-
Man,try and make it over for Bug Jam!It's a top show and party!It's what inspired me to get back into bmx!I was paying more attention to the bikes than the cars! :daumenhoch:
-
im still waiting on my lester mags to come back so have been searching for some knobbly tyres for it but havent had any luck yet
does anybody know where i could get a pair either black or blue ?
Deeman unfortunatly i wont make it over to bug jam this year either :'( as i have to have the kublewagen finished for thr 22nd june .
i am going to make sure i get there next year though :daumenhoch:
