I had one of those in red for crimbo 81,i absolutely loved it,used to pretend I was in kick start and ride it up all sorts of obstacles!!!when I got my first bmx for crimbo 83 which wasn't the bmx I wanted I carried on riding my strika until about march!!wish I had the fundage,glwts :daumenhoch:

Does this have the usual freewheel click that they all seem to have?
I had the grifter as i'm a bit older but a kid down my road had one.
One question.... is that Big Ben on the handlebars?

My brother had the black one, I had one a few years previous to him, the silver one. :coolsmiley:

:smitten: My first new bike love it.

no,seems to have lost the click as the wheels aren't original!The originals were fooked and I had these kicking about so on they went!
Yep,it's a massive bell!my mate bought me it for me for a laugh to go on my bmx but I thought it'd be more at home on here!

Bloody brilliant :D
I had a Green one with Pedal back brakes sadly it went under a Ford Cortina with me on it, I survived... The striker was Struck down and finished.
My mum and Dad then bought me a Silver one, that had lever brakes so I developed a new skid Technique...
Love Strika's.

I had a silver one, with the Ti decals, my Bro had a Chukka, the little version, reckon it was 1978.
2 years later, my parents one December told me the bike had been stolen, but it reappeared on Christmas Day with a new red paint job, number plate and horn.
