there are loads out there that should be in the museum.
i dont just want to see high end stuff,lets see all the shite aswell tensor bikes and stuff like that.
also we have over a 1000 members here and not as many bikes in the museum.
so all of you that havent or cant post pics of ur bikes send em to me and ill post em for ya.
lets get some new bikes in there.
the museum is important,thats the first place i look when im after inspiration for a new build.
I LOVE THIS BMX SHIT!

He he , i think i just found a tensor, looks like a gen 1 haro freestyler. Pretty ok looking bike really, all things considered. It has chro mo written on the frame too. I'll take a picture if anyones interested (which i very much doubt  :2funny:).

Paul or Richard Camm has got one on eGay at the moment, but it's a 90's model  :daumenhoch:

Some of the ones I remember are Pro Craft (5 inch head tube), Silver Fox (MT Racing?), ACE Racing (loved my one of those, got nicked!), Patterson Pro, Bandito, MCS, I will rack my brains to see if I can remember anymore!
