yeh man, nice to see a taj on the go!
taj miballsitch is for me the best bmxer of all time,
watch the fooker ride.
-
looking good so far bert :daumenhoch:,id love to have one in the blue pearl. i love those tall sidewall arayas with those holographic decal and with gumwalls :smitten: :smitten:
when i get that ride with the taj test ill post it up
-
yeah hes a bada*s on a small wheel push bike for sure....
those marks on the top tube are just bits of film from the original packing :shocked:
i have some low drags for it just need to pull the rest together now
thanks heywood for the 16 tooth for the rear hub :4_17_5: TOP BLOKE
-
its gonna look kick ass when its done
-
thats the plan...the wheels are himyko rims with profile ss hubs...all nos so far.
i could really do with a better set of mk1 lowdrags mine are ok but not as mint as id like....might use jumping bars if not i have a good set of them

Answer your bloody pms!!!! You're rubbish!!! :LolLolLolLol:
-
how bad are the low drags? pics?
-
they are pretty tidy. just not mint they still have a survivor decal of a little blue devil holding a bomb....
im just being fussy really but the taj has sentimental value to me more than any of my other builds.....
i had one when i was younger and we went through alot...i know where it is still but its got a good home and lives with my pal....
-
yeah the bomber logo. well just stick the bars on one of you other bikes, im sure you have one or two bikes that needs bars.......lol
-
Nice - I do like that version of the Taj, looks a lot neater than the US made one.
Sweet as Bert.

glad you like it stodgy
its my all time fave bike to ride
just want a nice sparkly one to look at when i get old :smitten:
-
i got that ride in today(along with a few others). isnt much of a test but cool nuntheless. ill try an get the pics tonight for you,been busy uploading to youtube... :daumenhoch:
-
theres an interesting timeline with the taj too, i like that about it,
when taj and joe started t1 the frame design transferred over to the barcode frame,
i know most dont agree with me but i put the t1 barcode in the top 10 bmx frames of all time,
hoffman continued the design over to the deebo frame but it jus wasnt the same, i had one for a while and it still remains the worst frame i've ever owned, it was such a pig that i swore i'd never buy another hoffman, and i havent, to this day :LolLolLolLol:

cheers condor
you are a handy chap when it comes to ads :daumenhoch:
i remember the eggs...that took me back to when i first started riding...i wonder if anybody has an egg built up anywhere
they must be quite a rare thing to find,,,
cant say i ever saw one
-
no problem :daumenhoch:
ive seen one or two of the eggs around,surprising as most broke like twigs :LolLolLolLol: plus they wernt around long. there was one on craigslist for sale a few months back,mint for 150 bucks.
-
that would have been a cool little purchase
its nice to have things like that.
im not sure they even sold them over here...
-
if another good one comes up for a good price ill get it,but not to streesed about an egg.
i got pics of it somewhere.....
-
a pic of a pic i'm afraid but heres yours truly on a taiwan blue taj, abubaca. what a frame i had to sell it to cover going to koc one year and go back on the standard lengthy i couldn't shift in time.
i really do wish i'd had the chrome ramp room one tim at sideways cycles had as the taiwan one had 14mm drops and was a bitch to sort with super pros rekka came to the rescue however.
i need a scanner
sorry
