Well just in case you don't know when I was 13 yrs old I got mugged in a skatepark in London, :( that was the day I stopped riding BMX's :'(
And then on the 15th november last year I found RADBMX and after I'd got all excited and built a streetbeat I thought it would be good to build the bike I got mugged on
well I never had any photos to work with and I know some of the parts aint quite correct but it looked just like this when I brought it home from Alpine Action in early in 1982 "BUZZIN"
