I've got about 4 old school builds to start or finish.
Ater that though it's probably going to be restricted to one a year and make sure that it's a good one. They'll all be either mid or new school then as well. Starting with my Hoffman EK. :daumenhoch:
-
i have an ultra burner, mongoose cali and aero reflex frame and forks, so hopefully get them built up.
-
For next year I have 2 builds to start yhey are Kuwahara Supernova
Kuwahara KZ-1
bodamus ;)
-
i am doing another trickstar. and maybe a 84 sport
-
Busy year for me and my wallet. Better get a job quick. :LolLolLolLol:
Finishers
1.Kuwahara E.T - F&F Respray, Wheel Build and a few parts still to source
2.Haro Group 1 (86) - Few parts still to source
Starters
1. Kuwahara KZ1
2. Kuwahara Laserlite
and possibly an 85 Haro Master and a Kuwahara Bravo KT
Also trying to set up a new website www.kuwaharabmx.co.uk (http://www.kuwaharabmx.co.uk)
-
ill be doing one build only i think that will be haro freestyler gen 1 replica.
-
My own take on Harris' Dirt Bros TA. but currently I can't afford a TA frame, so that's just a dream. >:(
-
I think i wanna do a quad angle, firebird freestyler and a nice cruser. I got me VDC changa long f/f and bars , but undecided about this at the mo(as me mind changes like the wind) whether i like it or not, liked it when i bought it, then not , then liked, then not :-\
-
....a loft extension !! ;)

make sure your ceiling height is high enough to take the shower cubicle and tray you buy.
trust me, this is important. :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:
-

VDC changa long....almost there, waiting for rechromed profile box cranks and tis done.
JMC Shadow - been working on this for a bit, playing wiht the colour matches etc...once rechromed 400's land it wil be fiinished....its the nuts.

Looks like youve used a bad builder in the past JT! :LolLolLolLol:
-
I want to do a US made GT performer in Fiola yellow stylie! Boring i know but i used to love them BITD. Still gotta get hold of a frame and forks if anyone knows one going?
I also wanna do a quad so i am on the lookout for one of those too. Thats all the bikes i want to finish my collection. Aint into race bikes or VDC's. :-\
I have another chrome skyway on the go which will be finished very soon and also a Kuwi laserlite which i havent started yet. May flog that soon if i dont get the post and bars.
-
84 Sport which will be a rep of mine bitd.....and a concrete bowl or vert ramp in my garden! :shocked:
Daz. :daumenhoch:
-
Oooooo well, my 84 Pro Performer needs complete, my Gen 1 also and got this new Lazerlite frame the other day, so will be doing that too... as long as the price of parts don't keep going up it should be a good year :daumenhoch:

no mate, the build was awesome, really really pleased. they lowered the floor to give me head height as I'm 6' 2", we knew it'd be tight as the roof height was low, it's a semi, so we could raise the overall roof height. But I never thought when I ordered the the shower cabinet and tray how tight it would be, as the shower sits on plinth anyway to allow access to underneath, as the floor can't be taken up.
anyway, one very expensive low profile stone resin shower tray later and all was good.
the bedroom is fantastic, another thing, decide where your tv is going and have the cables put in the wall, with socket and aerial point where you want it to go, for a nice slick flat screen no wires look.
think this is off topic now....oh no it said "build" i think we are ok. :LolLolLolLol:
-
Next year I'll be mostly building this (well helping in my little way)

i have a super fox on the go
and a new school alloy mongoose that needs polishing
also i have a hankering for a stingray

I hope to get a couple more 85 Haro's completed, my Gen1 (maybe) and I'm going to change my Quadangle slightly.
-

Pete Quad said he's got loads of these just laying about making the place look untidy :LolLolLolLol:
-
Listen, i know Pete to talk to but he is hard to take seriously! :D
Has he really got loads of GT's or has he sold up?

I decided recently (as we all do from time to time) that I had finished building BMX's (old, mid and new school). It is weird then that I currently have 4 frames awaiting parts and I am looking for a high end new school race bike.
Is this madness ever going to end?????? :LolLolLolLol:
-
Gotta spankin GT Performer to finish - just waiting for some parts from Custom Anodising ;)
Then Curtis 1, 2 and three ;)
Then a couple of old Nora's to start :smitten:
Like JT I'm bringing the whole lot to MK08 - 30 odd bikes :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:
-
Then a couple of old Nora's to start :smitten:
NORA !! :smitten: :smitten:

First to get finished is the old Craig Campbell Gen 1 ;)then my Torker MX and maybe look for an 84 master F+F to swap all the bits off my 85 onto,I think that will be my lot
