Not been feeling the BMX love lately for various reasons but I've enjoyed building this one even though it's taken longer than expected:
Its a 1980 / 81 Loop tail depending on who you speak too.
What's weird is that I would have bought this a frame a few months the earlier if it wasnt for the turbo blowing on the car ! As it happens I ended up taking it as a trade against my Kewie Bravo KT so thank's Bert for this frame :daumenhoch:
Needs a few tweaks but it's 99% there for me, not exactly how I planned it but I'm loving how it's turned out.

Didn't want to put the usual Kashi or Elina on it so i went with a NOS Velo thunderbolt seat , Can't really tell from the pics but it works well having the subtle thunderbolt detail all in black .. Just a bit it different to the norm i thought... :daumenhoch:

Like that bud, like it a lot :daumenhoch:

That green is refreshing and minty fresh! :smitten:
A really nice build mate :4_17_5:
