This bike started off about 18 months ago as the pink z hubs i got off adam AKGOFF which were his orig hubs off his stunning woody trickstar , i just bought them for some reason can't remember why :LolLolLolLol:, then i got the nos pink rear mx1000 off se bmxer, i had a white one already and decided to mix them up which i think looks ok on this , then the nos freestyle tuf stem off moose off here again probably over a year ago , the woody itson z rims i got off ebay i think again over a year ago , nos gt seatpost off poolysherrif and the survivor shotgun 2 off the kapster , i had everything for this bike bar the frame and forks and the grips , then stodgy put the frame and forks up for sale and i missed them by 5 mins and the kapster got it , i was gutted as i had everything to build it up, anyway kindly the kapster let me have the frame and forks :daumenhoch:, and then i got the survivor ame grips off devilock :daumenhoch: and it was all there ready to build , i managed to finish it before taking it to blackpool ramp night but didn't realise how crap the panaracer tyres would be there and on any wood surface they just slid ( lethal really) whether its the grease on the tyres or something i'm not sure but thetyres were even more useless than me on a bmx :LolLolLolLol:, first time i've fitted an acs rotor on a bke and impressed with it, anyway lenny (badbaldie) christened it the Gaystar ;D, excuse the quality of the pics i took them on my phone and it was raining as well, thanks to everybody who supplied me with anything for this

Guys this is BMX . this is probably my fav bike ive scean in a long long time. its just as thow Glens gone to the garage and found the bike he last rode 25 years ago dusted her off and brought back out to play. deffinately not NOS not standard or of the peg. its put together with some top quality hard to find used parts and then ridden . and fallen off too. not a cheap build to put together im sure you will agree. so glad youve posted some pics up Glen now go stick it in botm :smitten: :smitten:
by the way Glen i know u like to hide a few parts in your car.......... BUT ......... behind the front grill is a little extreame :LolLolLolLol:

Glen, I do love a survivor build and, apart from finding a hard to come by complete survivor these days, you have done an awesome job bringing it all together :4_17_5:
A layback though, I think, would look better as it's freestyle.
-
yes i think a layback would look good maybe whire pink or chrome i'll keep my eye out for a hutch one as i like the angle of the hutch ones :daumenhoch:
-
nice love the trickstar as had a pink one bitd , i get a pic up and yeah did get stick for having a pink bike
-
the golf GTi build coming along nicely too 8)

I'm packing in BMX and going down the board route :daumenhoch:
