Looks to have some quality parts on it, maxy cross crank, mx brakes, araya's, custom m's, etc
Superchrome finish & similar forks to a mk1 [/img][/quote](http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/aa167/mpipes/mumsfonepics059.jpg)

John diplomatic Townshend :LolLolLolLol: you're a star

yeah maybe the case with the bike , but I think the component spec aint that bad

either restore as a low budget rare ( but not sought after ) rider
or buy it for a donor bike , if it's cheap enough and you fancy a project

He came to the right place, plenty of profiteers on here. At least he didn't say it was NOS :10_2_12:

Post by: dialledbikes on May 16, 2009, 08:28 PM: JT is right. All early Giant BMX bikes were shit.

When I went to JE James in Sheffield to buy my first BMX, the choices were (a) a GMX (Giant) or (b) a Moto-One. Both were shit, but the Moto-One was less shit than the GMX/Giant (and better than the Grifter I was replacing) so I got that.
