Whats it going to cost to ship over to England?

Apparently they were going on sale on the 30th June, but in Target stores now. They are selling like hot cakes. Some are buying up all stock in store.

Would be nice if they were available here too.  :(

This looks cool, pity it's only available in the U.S. Just looked on eBay, already loads listed for around $500  >:(

Hope they address the other bmx's for Season 3, Dustin's bike looked nothing like an 80's bmx!  "nono"

Yeah, let us know how you get on with the bar stewards in customs. :2gunsfiring_v1:

Back to the bike, what sort of spec is it, ie chromoly, etc, etc?

Post by: Warnerlewis on June 21, 2019, 10:18 PM
No one seems to know the actual spec, it's not chrome it's painted silver as the bars are too, looks like copy mx brakes alloy wheels and tyres don't have a lot of tread on them.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190621/070b36b9d218397b3becbde6038708b4.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190621/ebd2df9c30e7add526fb7474d8413aba.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190621/040ff08a9224f7004c1f3ce47ad71f4e.jpg)

was SO tempted...... but only coz it looks a bit like my dream bike when I was a kid.

Post by: BMX1973 on July 09, 2020, 09:42 PM
Just a shame they are not Chrome, then again great for a strip and custom paint job.

I am still tempted to do a custom bike with a nice candy blue or red paint job with Dia Compe parts etc.

Bikester have them in the UK so no shipping charge. Getting one in the US and shipped was mentioned on the last page.

A red one would be cool, say with modern geometry and a 21" top tube and modern versions of the old pro class wheels as well   ;)
