Picked this up a couple of weeks ago from the original owner.
Adjusted the bars, flipped the lever threw on a rear peg and it rode sweet.
The description is from the 2010 Face book ad.
This is an FBM Night Train that I first built up in 2003. It started life as a maroon frame but a few years ago I gave it a full custom re-spray. One owner, a bike mechanic and life-long BMXer, so you can feel confident about the quality of the ride and the build. There are a few marks, scuffs and scratches that you’d expect for a bike that has been used for park- and street-riding. Try not to think of this as a piece of memorabilia, but as a fine example of an era when the bikes were built to a beating and come back for more. It’s been hiding in the shed for the last 2-3 years, but I’ve just updated the wheels with new rims and spokes front and rear plus a new front hub. Here are the specs:

Awesome. I still have one of those saddles on my current bike!!

Yeah - love them late mid bikes. Are the grips the Primo Dirt Monster grips?
Also - being a-to-the-nal but the stems a DK Jumping stem (puts tw@t cap away).

The description was the original owners, I thought it was a jumping stem.
The description was taken from an old face book ad, I should have deleted the price. The bike is not for sale (just bought it myself) though I can see how it could read that way.
Thanks for the replies.
Cheers :)
