the cranks where polised but got them readonised,
might try a 1 piece, i have one hear,
but as its a suntour vx which is around that age thought it was better.
will take your advise on board dude :daumenhoch:

Fantastic build matey, has a real early eighties feel, all the components go together really well. For me it's one of the nicest builds on the site :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

That's real foxy, looks great. Dug these out from BMX Action in 1980. Even though it's as early on 1980 and era correct it looks light years ahead of what else was just previously around, really on the cusp of all things modern design wise. Want one!
