It's that time of the year with all those award ceremonies, BAFTA's and what not, so got me thinking..
I'm sure you'll all agree, this site has some of the best bikes and best builders in the world, people will always pat the yanks on the back, but who are your favourite bike builders on here? ??? It'd make for an interesting debate I reckon :daumenhoch: :Great_Britain:
- I'll start off with glynnyboy, I first got into OS bikes on burnerworld a few years ago now, and always admired Glynn's attention to detail - from the humble Burner, all the way up to his Natty Pro, and Kuwi Cruiser - he builds some belters. I know he has a few more stonkers up his sleeve too.
- Southern Andy, he may not punt them out as often as some, but he doesn't half know how to throw some bikes together :smitten: I think you'll all agree that Zeronine was a piece of art :smitten: speaking to him recently, I know he has some seriously nice builds on the go too :daumenhoch:
- kungfunky, he wears brown flares and supports Leicester City, but if you want to know anything about the early years, he's the fooking man :coolsmiley: always surprises me what he manages to drag over from the states, and I love that they end up over here :4_17_5:
- In2bmx, sole dedication to Robinson, there's not much else you can do but blue/red/white, but every one looks bleedin awesome, top end parts, and also dabbles with the 70's exotica too, top builder is Carl.
- Sawzall, Phil's collection of UK BMX - unbelievable really, some rare old bikes in his garage :shocked: I love the history with this stuff, the small independent UK bike builders from bitd, and no one has a collection like it - always a pleasure to see what turns up next :daumenhoch:
You get the gist though, I could go on all day, but who are your favourite builders on here?

Cheeky fooker, it's Steve69. ;D
For me, it's gotta be Christian (Hunterdubber).

Steve Animal can put a good bike together :daumenhoch:

:LolLolLolLol: smick as owt.

Great minds think alike Tom ...
You have all mine up there and for the same reasons but i would add 3 more ...
Bobafett ... total dedication to the mongoose brand and turns out a decent original bike .
Marky P .... anyone who wears flip flops all year round deserves a mention :D
Hunterdubber .... Just always seem to like his builds
just thought of another ..... John cheekythirtysix ... his Redlines always look fantastic , great attention to detail .
I'll probably think of somemore :D
-
Munny :daumenhoch:
-
I agree with you Tom about Carl's bikes, even the older ones that I'm not familiar with look the business. 8)
Nicks builds are awesome also, because I know how much effort he puts in to ensure the right parts go on his bikes. I've tried on several occasions to get him to come with me down Repop Road, but he's having none of it. He obviously has a lot patience, something I have not. ::)
Glynn and RussJ and NeilVV have built some of the finest spec built Raleighs that I've seen, a much finer job than Raleigh ever did. 8)
And finally for me, Christians last few builds have really grabbed my attention, that Torker just blew me away. :daumenhoch:
-
Bobafett ... total dedication to the mongoose brand and turns out a decent original bike .
Marky P .... anyone who wears flip flops all year round deserves a mention :D
Hunterdubber .... Just always seem to like his builds
Same here mate - it's hard to pin down a couple, John, Chris and Mark are some of the best :daumenhoch:
-
considering I have had a 5yr break from Rad I can only comment on members from that time & Pk Radman never failed to impress me plus a few guys im afraid I have forgot there names or even the bikes they built
but recently the man KungFunky has made my jaw drop on many occasions with not only the bikes/frames etc he has managed to aquire with all the history & pix to boot so my vote goes to you sir :4_17_5: & the fact that his stuff is SE Race Inc etc related is also a plus for me :daumenhoch:
-
for me N3IL VV's work has steadily been in my eyesight since when I started out, always clean and diverse in choice ;)
-
kinda think Phil (sawsall) is due a smidgen of recognition. :daumenhoch:
-
There are too many guys building good bikes to name them all, but these few come to mind.
Sawzall, Animal, Kappy, Southern Anday, and you cant forget S&MAlex. His collection of "survivor" S&M builds has to be world class. :daumenhoch:
-
Totally forgot N13L VV - he's one of my bezzies too, sorry mate :-[ :LolLolLolLol:
-
Steve Animal knows fook all about putting a good bike together - good job Adam AKGOFF puts him straight
Fook me Rob, that's a bit cutting........ :shocked: :shocked: >:D :2funny:
Yep, gotta be Steve and Phil Sawzall for me. The bikes they have rescued most people on here would leave in the skip but they produce some of the best restorations I've ever had the pleasure to see :daumenhoch:
-
one of the top contenders has to be steve costa, his builds are the most attention to detail, colour ect that
i've worked for, proper pain in the ar$e with his chain links painting hundreds of separate links but when you
see the finished result it's amazing, :daumenhoch:
-
Stidds and Julian Taff for me :angel:
Also Jay needs recognition for his whole collection and display :4_17_5:
-
Ash - Amazing attention to detail and era correct parts :daumenhoch:
Hunterdubber - That lad knows how to get a build "just right"
Bobbafett - Gone but not forgotten
Snav - Not to shabby ;)
To be fair anyone who has the time and dedication to source the parts and put them together is amazing in my book :4_17_5:
-
Stidds and Julian Taff for me :angel:
Also Jay needs recognition for his whole collection and display :4_17_5:
Oh yeah, Julian, one of the reasons I'm here and have a shed full of bikes. 8)
-
Everyone does thing differently and thats what makes it Rad :daumenhoch:

Not wrong there Dan :daumenhoch:
-
Munny :daumenhoch:
Cheers Ed
Yep, all these amateurs could learn alot from me on how to do things the wrong way!!!
Too many good bikes on here to pick a favourite builder, I like both show/era correct builds and survivor finds.
Its all about balance for me.
MM
-
Totally agree with what's been said already but...
don't forget our Nath 8) :daumenhoch:
-
Good shout on Costa, seen his bikes in the flesh and even though they're GTs they're all top notch :daumenhoch:
Good shout with Stidds as well
-
PKRADMAN was soon forgotten then :-[

why do you fall off all the time then ;D
-
some awesome builds built on here,by awesome guys :4_17_5:
terry(wildon's) collection is something tidy
-
I really couldn't narrow it down to be honest all the bui,ds on here are special in one way or another
-
Everyone does thing differently and thats what makes it Rad :daumenhoch:
Exactly. There are some people who throw money at it and can't fail if they do just a little research. The people who improvise and build great bikes to a budget impress me most.

that sums it up nicely mark
-
Think costa is a good call.. He's strange,but he's got skills. Sawsal for resto work, the man is at the top of the game!
Lots of great builds happen on rad. :daumenhoch:
-
PKRADMAN was soon forgotten then :-[
not by me ;)
and the fact that when we had an OSS meet at Hayes a few yrs back Radman brought along a minty JMC DY chock full of top end exquisite parts & was mad enough to let me take her for a spin round the track plus Hayes has the Himalaylas in the first straight didn't faze him much
a few comments on here have helped me with my memory :2funny:
Stidds for the recent Cooks build
Jay for the Haro showstand & utter uber attention to detail
also Rombloke for the Haro & Torker reps & restos
Ron Burgundy for the Redline MXIIs & Prolines
-
Jay
Cheekythirtysix
Sawzall
JJ
Stuntmaster

Generallee could put an awesome mid school build together, along with midschooljon of late :daumenhoch:
-
Greg's builds leave me speechless.......
-
PKRADMAN was soon forgotten then :-[
Certainly not by me , I was just talking about him to Craig
Lee was "The Daddy of RAD collectors " :4_17_5: nobody has or probably will come close in my opinion :coolsmiley:
I could name other builders I admire , but I'd probably forget to name one :crazy2:
So many
but the ones mentioned so far are stand out favorite ones for me :smitten:
-
Totally agree with what's been said already but...
don't forget our Nath 8) :daumenhoch:
yes nath is there at the top for me as well just by how many ive done for him and again his attention to
getting colours right and the detail and era correct look he goes for :coolsmiley:
-
Greg's builds leave me speechless.......
:LolLolLolLol: Can't beat those backyard pictures as well ;)
-
I like some of Joe Dark Sunday's new school builds. :daumenhoch:
-
Mattdub too ;) The red ones stand out for me :smitten:
-
There's quite a few people who put great builds together but don't really show them off, which is a shame as they do a great job
-
some awesome builds built on here,by awesome guys :4_17_5:
terry(wildon's) collection is something tidy
yep terry as well, for me the list is massive as i've dealt with so many of you who really get me to
get it right, the countless pms untill where finally decided on the colours and finish they want, i wouldnt
want to insult anyone by naming a pure top builder as most of you guys build some crackers :daumenhoch:
-
Atari Ager Tom has built truly amazing bikes :smitten:
Diesel Dan , Bubbs , Dan Harris , OrgasmDonor , JJ ,,,bloody hell I'll be here all night :crazy2: :LolLolLolLol:
-
I seem to post "ooh that's lovely" on most build threads. I'm in awe of everyone, the time, patience, effort, money spent, and attention to detail is mind blowing sometimes.
Like Tom I started off on Burnerworld then raleighburner.com, then here so I also drooled first at Russ J's, Glynnyboy's, beard1973's, N31L VV's, and Julian Taff's amazing collections. There are others on the Burner sites who I'm not sure come on here but honestly the standard and rarity of some of the builds of the top spec bikes are worth a look.
I'm lucky enough to live very near Southern Andy, top bloke, and his bikes in the flesh are amazing and educating me in a bit of BMX racing history. As a casual fan back then I only really knew what I considered the "big" name brands.
I don't really know enough names on here yet to name many others. I've always wanted an early 80s Kuwie so meticulous' ET build, mattbloke's KZ-1, and retrodan72's KZ-1R have stood out.
Anything Candy Red will also get me all misty eyed. Love em all really :coolsmiley:
EDIT: forgot! I was also looking at Wez and Monkian's (Paul's) Tioga Rhino Charge thread too today and wowsers those looked good...
-
Ohhhhh, good topic, where do i start....
Phil Sawzall, everything about his builds.....wow. :smitten:
Steve Costa, i'm not a freestyle fan but i know a good build when i see one, he puts 110% in to every build.
Andy68, i'm one of his biggest fans, he knows quality.
Christian Hunterdubber, great builder of the old school bike, love his builds and a top guy to boot.
JimmyP :-X controversial chap but ignore his mad posts and look at his bikes, they're amazing.
Glynnyboy, holy moley, this guy chucks out the most amazing stuff.
Dave Beard, a bit like me, doesn't build enough to get noticed really but when he does he again puts amazing effort in.
John cheekythirtsix, one build a year but what a build, the best way to be in my eyes.
Sean stidds, top builder and amazing knowledge.
Ash Kungfunky, SE are not my favourite brand but Ash clamps a bike together with upmost precision.
I'm sure they're are a few others i've forgotten but the ones above spring to mind.
-
never seen a bad build on here yet......
(apart from mine :LolLolLolLol:)
-
Way too many to remember - few that spring to mind though: Dan H, Betty, Fraz, Alex :daumenhoch:
-
Lots of great builders who have great collections.
-
There's quite a few people who put great builds together but don't really show them off, which is a shame as they do a great job
Dan H fits in this category. So many amazing bikes. :smitten:
-
Not naming names but those who really put there heart and soul into it stand out a mile, to me. Especially those repairing and recreating those special bikes that mean something to those of us who were thrilled to be doing gates next to Big Tim on a midweek night at Bournemouth, or jumping for joy at Schoff's World Superclass win.
-
Ones that spring to mind are Sean, Carl...& for something that has an authentic look of something you would have had BITD, Stu Stallone!!!
-
Steve P & Dels where always good
lots of good builders on here.
-
Julian taffs builds are aways 100% spot on perfect.
as are Costa,s GT,s.
as others have said there's a good few builders on here that can bolt a bike together.
-
fook me ive herd my name mentioned 3 times :shocked: maybe il show my bikes again..........NOT ;D
anyone who puts the effort into restoring parts to there former glory rather than buying new and putting the effort to learn THEMSELVES what there building does it for me
there no secret i aint a race bike man but sawzals builds resto skills and attention to detail are off the SCALE
terrys (not cos i love u lol) hutch collection and ASH`S SE collection are SIC!!!
and jays HARO collection is something else (fook me i said HARO LOL)
and not forgetting people like SBD,sawzal, animal and del are the reason why so many builds can be completed and especially firebird Steve his art skills are second to none :4_17_5:
-
Holy cow plenty of mentions, and all appreciated believe me :daumenhoch:.
I cant even narrow it down to a top 10 theres so many class builders and amazing bikes on here. RAD really is right up there as one of the best sites no doubt about it :4_17_5:
But a mention must go out to Monkeybiscuits Mat, anyone who can build a Nomura as good as him gets my thumbs up....And although I've never met him and I'm not that much into my freestyle bikes Robbo always turns out some crackers :daumenhoch:
-
Being a KZ-1 fan in particular Sam (Meticulous) deserves a big shout out, the attention to detail, research and love that went into that build can only deserve respect. He has a couple of other beauty's in his loft too.
-
Stidds , his builds are always very thought out and clean , great mix of old / retro / new school
who else would have a cook bros. beside a slingshot beside a retro quad ? and that r&r is :smitten:
also Atariager - wins award for best use of a tree in his builds :2funny:
-
Lots of great builders who have great collections.
I agree. :daumenhoch:

Unfortunately my mrs doesn't like money going on kids bikes :'(
Wish I had the spare cash like many on here to build 8)
Gonna be mid school now for me
-
some great builders and builds over the years on this site. stock builds are awesome and when done and set up properly are sublime, but, i do prefer quirky non stock builds especially non stock builds that are true to the era. Builds that you saw back in the day with the bits on the bikes you replaced the stock bits for, either because yours broke or because it was a fad thing or because you saved your pocket money to upgrade from a suntour to a tuf-neck stem etc. Or builds that have just been built out of personal preference to satisfy the owner, when they work they are the best builds in my eyes :daumenhoch:
like i said, loads of fooking awesome builders have already been mentioned in this thread and well deserved :daumenhoch: but, if one person has built a bike on here that i wish i'd had the opportunity to have built and owned (would love to get it on a track :)) and sit it next to my builds, it would have to be doublechevrons BOSS. Love it :daumenhoch:
-
Don't forget Khaled. He too builds some beautiful bikes for sure :4_17_5:

Can I stop tickling your balls now both of you!?!?!?! :LolLolLolLol:
Big love for Dan, he makes my bikes what they are!!! :smitten:
Number 1 builder for me is my turkish mate Costa, many a time I've stood in his man cave in awe of his bikes and many a time I've tried to buy them off him. The attention to detail is second to none and even though I'm a fussy git with having my parts NOS/minty or repowdered I would happily let him build me a bike! :daumenhoch: :-* :smitten: :4_17_5:
Also special love for discostu :-*

I would like to put up a few names.
The curbow brothers, they both build some great bikes like the gold super tuff burner, the chrome/blue hot heart, the baby blue Pk ripper, and the sparkly blue cyclepro. All stunning.
Glynnyboy builds some nice bikes. His national pro is one of my favourites.
Dordymush always builds outstanding s&m's
Wini has done some great builds. I love the Craig le Paige. A well worthy winner at Mk.
Midschool john is defiantly flying the flag for some of the nicest midschool bikes I have seen of late. And always shows them with great pics. I wish I could take pics like that.
Mbdh Ollie has done the airmaster and mk1 condor some justice. He managed to source some super rare bits. (I'm sure he must nosh people off) :LolLolLolLol:
Robbo always builds some good bikes and has a good eye for detail. I am probably his biggest critic ;D
Steven costa. Well what can I say about old turkboy? He is the best gt builder in the world by none. Amazing bikes.
Kungfunky ash. I was amazed at the se collection at Mk. That man had nearly all of se history present in one tent! :shocked:
Stidds. Even though we have had a few heated discussions. I can't fault his rare race bike builds.
Bobbafett. I was amazed with his collection at mk11. Just wow
Steve69. He always builds a good bike. And is the man that is behind Adams exotic stunning builds.
Mani. The green fox four (is that right?) the chrome gt performer and the trm. All lovely
Wazza. He always builds nice stuff. Like the purple haze trickstar and the jmc mini.
Animal Steve. A very special collection of English bikes and that rgd remake stem was awesome.
Kappy. He has an amazing collection. It's a shame he doesn't get more recognition for the rareness of some of his builds.
Retrodan always does some nice builds on a budget. Proving you don't have to throw loads of money at it.
Brettypeeps always builds a nice bike.
Sawzell. What can you say that hasn't already been said? The guy is a bike restoring genius.
And then lastly Dom, jay and mr nos Matt swivel all have a Haro collection that bob Haro himself would be happy to own. Let alone any of us.

Fooking cheap skate ;D ;D

I think most that spring to my mind have been mentioned.
I am a little guilty sometimes of taking more notice when soaking builds up of them been from guys I have had the pleasure of chat with.
I try to do my homework so I can understand what I'm looking at but sometimes when you get the pleasure of a chat you can really feel the passion & understand reasons more clearly . That's one of the many reasons why mk is so important I think.
There's some really regular consistent guys and I think this is what puts this place at the top.
The quality build ratio is very healthy at the side of all the BS/banter/chit chat in comparison to any other bmx forum imo.
So I hope I pretty much wannked everyone off a bit there. :LolLolLolLol:

I am probably his biggest critic ;D
