Will measure it up when I'm back at the lock up. It was purchased from Darren Stock. It's really light , and the welds are beautiful. Guessing it was one of his race frames.
-
All Wilson frames had that 5" headtube :daumenhoch: easy to spot when you find a decal-less frame set ;)

I have bought loads of one off's especially tyres, can't find another one anywhere.

I'm sure there's a thread on here where people are asking for the buddy for a single bmx part they've bought?
I've also seen the odd bananna mag and even a couple of pairs of the years unfortunately they weigh a tonne lol and the adverts were always collection only and as usual miles away lol :-\

I've posted up on that thread a few times, but with no luck. Search eBay every day hoping another orphan ST or HARO tyre will pop up.i'm going to stick with the Acorns as they look pretty cool. Steve.

Knocked the idea of Arayas on the head, it's looking like Z rims on a blue chrome and red theme.
Going to get the frame re chromed , and ask Del to reproduce the decals. Got blue shimano brakes, and blue mushrooms in stock. Think I will lose the uni, and add a mint straight AERO pro burner post, and then source a nice blue Kashinax aero.
See how it goes.👊🏻

Bit more in the workshop today, nice SUGINO spider and crank arms in transit! Yes I am now going with an Ellina UL, and red Diacompe 890 Set.
Had to order the Tange seat clamp decal from Australia 👛

Starting to look really nice. Much preferring the red seat :4_17_5:.
Many thanks👊🏻 The black seat wasn't cutting it. The UL seat looks better, maybe a red Kahimax one day.
