 :LolLolLolLol:

I don't have it anymore, i broke it down for some of the parts and sold the rest on.

It was just a frameset in the end that i threw up in the loft with the intention of building at a later date.

Sadly i knew financially i could never really afford to build a complete Hutch so i traded it for some parts with a  RAD member who still has it now.

About 10 years ago, when no one cared about BMX I looked for a cheap bike for my sister.

I found a decent one, felt a bit weird to ride but we bought it and she road it for a year.

I had totally forgotten about it until November and then I decided to have a look - just to see what it was.

Firebird Freestyler, white alloy hub tuffs, Woody Itson bars, Tuff Neck stem, DX pedals.

It was a proper nacker mind but I've cleaned it up a bit and sold all the parts on.  Made a tidy sum out of it too.

Only problem was that all the cash has gone to my sister (save my cut of course).

 ;)

A couple of nice GT bits off ebay. The forks were a poor pic, thought they were black painted, turned out to be black chrome.
Also picked up a box of bits for a tenner, contained dia compe 890s, chrome MX900 and profile spindle and 5 arm spider.
Best maybe was suntour pedals for 7p

 my  mate  sore an advert in the paper  ( bmx for sale) a few years back for £50 , he bought it not really knowing too much about bmx's . it had  been in his shed for 5 or so years .
i started getting back  into oldskool bmx 2years ago, he told me about this bike so i went to see , its was only a  84 eddie fiola gt pro performer complete, all the tuf/pro neck gold items , gold dx's, skyways , all abit ruff though , as i'm such a good mate i chucked it in mi car and fooked off ,
ive been restoring it for the last 8 months , and it just about done , going to give it back as a surprise,
i thick he'll lay an egg when he see it.
i also spied a ammaco freestyler  in his shed . ;D
