Hi guys...
Not sure if its in the right section, but I have just finished my OS BMX Racer for any Old School Races that happen up here in the North.
Considering I have bought some bits of guys on here I thought it is only fair to show you all.
Unfortunately its another burner :D ;)
Tange'd Frame Aero Pro (1984), it is more or less built to standard spec, with the exception of a few bits... oh and it needs a sticker set to finish it off... But to be honest I prefer it all chrome :smitten:
All in all though its ready to rock and roll, Any thoughts, suggestions and comments will be greatly appreciated.

Wicked another racing burner :daumenhoch: there's only one thing i would change depending how serious you are about racing and that would be the bars.......it'll ride a lot nicer with some straighter bars like G.T. or something ;) or you could just tell me to F**k ooof :D

Cheers Zippy :)
Spillers... I completley agree... I have a 90s mongoose with striaght bars and its a lot easier to ride... I am going to see what I can get hold of... eventually. Thanks for the comments though 8)

cracking looking build - i agree with the bars comment - get yourself a set of S&M Slams - same dimensions as the GT pro bars and half the price available in chrome to. Got a set of Slam Lite's on my team rep and there the monkeys. :daumenhoch:

I hope this is not the start of the Burnerworld plot to take over
the world OS racing :shocked: far too many burners around these parts now >:D
seriously though the bike looks cool, and spillers is bang on about the bars, perhaps a long reach stem as well, especially if your over 5 foot tall :daumenhoch:

Lovely looking bike Dan :daumenhoch:

Yeah the s&m slam bars are a good shout :daumenhoch: me bro has them on his skyway TA and they feel perfect. :daumenhoch:

haha :LolLolLolLol: to right be scared of BW... lol Thanks for the kind words... To be honest I am 5ft 9inch and the bike is perfect as is... I did a few mile on it yesterday and was fine... normally on my mongoose I have a aching back after about 10 mins..
I am serious looking into the S&M bars. :)
Lovely looking bike Dan :daumenhoch:
Thanks mate :D

dan there worth the money mate and if you can get the slam xlt's a bit lighter and still with a full warranty - got mine from alans i think, Paid about £47 for them :daumenhoch: Mind you if you can get a 2nd hand pair they might be a bit cheaper - seen them on here and on the bay for a bit less - make sure you dont get cut down ones - sorry if i'm teaching you to suck eggs mate :daumenhoch:
Heres what they look like fitted
