Title: OKAY, LETS BUILD A BIKE !!!
Post by: brass monkey! on May 14, 2007, 02:07 PM: Lets build a bike !!

Okay, this should be fun,

Lets see if we can build the most expensive BMX ? ::) 8)

Okay, It may not look right, or have era specific parts, but who cares, lets see how much we can spend !!
You need to support with prices for actual stuff that sold, (on here, on ebay or anywhere…!)

I'll start this with some valve caps - HUTCH RADKAPS (some sold on ebay for £155 at the end of last year on ebay) & SE CAMO PADSET (a set sold on ebay for £210 last year) - THAT'S 365 QUID ALREADY !! ;)

I guess Hutch will be a big part, (Aerospeeds, RADKAPS, Magnesium Hubs ? etc) but I remember Bill Stupples VDC Bars sold for £256 last year too, can that be beaten ? :-\

Here's a rough parts list, we can break it out if needed (ie: Hubs, Spokes, Rims etc)

Frame
Forks
Wheels
Tyres
Freewheel
Tubes
Bars - JMC Andy Patterson Bars - £450 (Sold by PK Radman)
Stem
Number Plate - Hutch - £469 (ebay 2006)
Grips -
Pedals - Hutch Beartraps - £390 (ebay 2006)
Brake Set - Black NOS DC MX1000's - £250 (ebay 2007)
Brake Blocks
Headset - TANGE 125 HEADSET - £125 (VERT-EGO SITE)
Crankset
Seat - Elina Lightning Bolt - £135- (ebay 2006)
Seat Post
Seat Clamp
Valve Caps - HUTCH RADKAPS - £155 (EBAY 2006)
Frame Pads - SE CAMO PADSET - £210 (EBAY 2006)
Chain

RUNNING TOTAL £2184

What can you add…..??? :daumenhoch:

black or or white mx 1000's, alans had a BIN for £250 recently

Seat's a tricky one, but my opinion would be a Hutch logo'd Kashimmax aero £300ish

Deep H stem, haven't seen an nos one but I'd guess it'd be at least £300
1 1/2" 2n1 headlock £75- £100

Post by: mark 2 on May 15, 2007, 02:34 PM: I think we need a photoshop wizz to build this monstrosity. Or like Matt said see if Radman can do it in 3D for us......lol. It'd be ironic if it cost say £6k and looked a pig....

Post by: thebigdog on May 15, 2007, 03:12 PM: for the seat post:-
possibly a CW racing layback seat post(with CW racing stamped in the brace),im sure one made $250ish (and it wasnt mint :idiot2: ) so thats about £125.

for the f&f:-
a CW phaze one 'nos' frame and forks must be worth a bit.?? :-\

for the tyres:-
has to be 'nos' hutch freestyle tyres they make stupid money on ebay.
