Bought at MK a couple of years ago. I did my usual trick of sourcing all of the parts within a couple of months, and then leaving it all stashed in the box room!  :idiot2:

Coronavirus Lockdown has helped me find the love, again. FFS I am even posting on RAD, and sending PMs to old mates (you know who you are).  :daumenhoch:

Cheers bud, apart from brake cable it's completely original too!
Not much moved on it so a overnight soak in plus gas aided with that.
All parts stripped off so gonna give frame and bars a good long soak in citric acid bath. I recon it will come up ok. (Aided with elbow grease!)
I will go for the survivor build so all bits to go back on.
Big thanks to Benno for passing this onto me.
So much for no more projects!!!

Many thanks, Loved Redditch  track. Steve Wilson was minutes away, so we would always visit, he watched us like a hawk, just incase we nicked any bits😀

Forgot about the Halfords, they were the main driver for the Bmx track, and the first event In 1980. Well reminded👊🏻
