one of, actually no, my favourite bmx frame ever,
pretty important too in the grand scheme of things, a frame you could race then take straight to the trails afterwards,
its only my opinion but i honestly think many modern frames take their heritage from this fooker,
when you first put the pics of the frame up i took it for a trls250, never noticed the lack of gusset!

very nice mate,
real riders bike,right there.



quality,integrity,pride.
