Title: Hi from the South East.
Post by: Mark1 on September 03, 2012, 08:24 AM

Thought i'd say a quick hello. Names Mark used to ride bmx lots, nothing serious or to write home about but spent most weekends in Hastings near the ramp, bottle alley and hanging around Backyard or my local woods. Just bought a bmx to have a laugh again really and probably hurt myself on. Have just bought a Peugeot 531 Freestyle i think its an 85 but havent really managed to find out much about them, seems they were either not popular or just not many made. Anyway probably have some questions which i hope some of you will be able to help with. Cheers, Mark.

Thanks lads. The first link from bmxmuseum is the one ive got. Was only sold as a f&f but i didnt get the original forks, not to much of a worry its gonna be a rider. The only other info i got was from issue 21 of "Freestyle Bmx" magazine which i found online, pretty much a gen1 haro copy.

Welcome to RAD.  :daumenhoch:
Your mission, if you choose to except it, is to have this built by September 16th and bring it on the next London ride!  :D

Hi,

I always remeber them as being quite advertised back in the day if not popular.

Every mag had a full page advert.

Looks nice.
