30 Years on
« on: March 29, 2014, 07:46 AM »

30 years ago Richard Hutchins  had one of coolest BMX companys in the market ,along with SE and Skyway He had the desire to  design and manufacture products a little more exotic and from Titanium and magnesium .
30 years ago the culmination of the Hutch range saw the

 " The lightest complete BMX racer in the world "  :4_17_5:

The Hutch Pro Star Racer  8)


2013 Im glad to say the "New" Hutch company have managed to produce a great looking , great feeling bike .
Maybe not pushing boundaries in its genre as Hutchins did. But nevertheless a bike I was more than happy to get as an alternative to say an S&M  Speedwagon.

This machine isnt a retro replica reproduction.  :-\ It's just a new serious track  bike , great geometry , nice welds , with with few nods and features to its old original.. ;)   :coolsmiley:


I love it  :smitten:




2013 Hutch Pro Racer frame and fork 21"TT 4130
Hutch Pro racer bars 8" rise
Alienation wheels  deviant and runaway rims on sealed hubs
Kenda Konversion tyres
CLIQ Weaponz cranks 180mm ext BB

At a guess, I'd say the tyres and other bits were donated by a Haro blackout.

Indeed  ;)


Had a scout for tan wall Konversions and only saw them in the states about $30 each

About £39 a pair but plus post  , I'm sure they're foldables

Cheers


I actually held a black Kashi up to it  ,,, it just didnt do it any favours .

Like you say Mark it's just reyyyt  as is  :daumenhoch:

Plus I like the look of everything black as opposed to building it up with polished or chrome bits   :)
