That was close to being the worst bike ever, then Raleigh came out with the Burner and saved it from that fate  :daumenhoch:  :LolLolLolLol:

I shyed away from bmx for a few years because in my eyes it was crap.  I could do everything I ever saw and more on my Grifter - no need for a poxy american bike   :D

Wheelies, coaster wheelies, bunnyhops, drops and gaps. They were all regularly pulled on the trusty Grifter.  Sure, I went through forks and seats almost weekly, but I could definately 'ave it on that bike.

I for one will never mock the Grifter   :4_17_5:

When I was first in to BMX, a lad at the local BMX track had a grifter built up with BMX parts. He had gone a little further than that tho. He drilled the frame out, all down the down tube to make it lighter. Then he had chucked the frame into a bonfire for a bit, to "heat treat" it. Finally he gave it an E.T. paint job. The bike was a legend!!!!

Now THAT would be some rebuild!
