Title: Thought i'd lost the love....until bored over Xmas.(Pic Heavy)
Post by: Chromo Buzz on January 24, 2016, 09:35 PM

Hey all,

Well after not being on here much over the last 18 months, and generally feeling i had had my fill of old school bmx's. I found myself bored over Christmas what with the shoite there was on tv :(. I decided to have a look on eBay(UK), and found that it seems to have dried up. So i had a little butchers on eBay(US) and found this bad boy......it landed at my door a week ago :coolsmiley:

This latest(& last ;D) purchase is going to stay as it is, as it has sat untouched in a bike shop in Texas(Earls Bicycle Factory) for the last 30 odd year's :shocked:.

Now, to help justify the spend on this i will be sadly letting go this Skyway TA May84(no not the mutt :LolLolLolLol:) in extremely good survivor condition :coolsmiley:

I think I saw this on EBay a while ago ...
Not cheap but where else are you going to get a NOS one ..
It's lush mate.. Real lush ..  :4_17_5:

As for the TA ...  "wantit"

I bet they'll be a queue of buyers ( myself included if I wasn't doing my quad  ::) )
