O/S is still out there.....
« on: June 04, 2019, 07:28 AM »
So my kids were playing with the kids 4 doors up the road over the weekend and my son wanted to go for a ride on his BMX..... the lad up the road says "I'll go get my dad's BMX" and 5mins later this completely original 1984 MT Silverfox appears.....  :shocked:

Still got the original tyres and probably the air inside them too  :2funny:

Anyone building one need to know what components were on them when they left the factory then give me a shout as he left it in my garage when it started to rain ("dad will kill me" kinda moment)

Before you ask, no, he won't sell it  :coolsmiley:

Are you going to bring the Dad to MK and show him how to get drunk and fall off?

Yeah John, he said it was an 84 but if they were still making them in 85 I could believe it. Still has Sumo rims and Cheng shin brakes but the CW bars and a stubbier saddle are different for sure :daumenhoch:
