This is a vintage picture from 1986 and not a current build.  I post this for the sake of the uniqueness of this treatment on the TA.  In 1986 I built one of the last bikes that I considered a real build.  It was all about complete bikes at the time with the Street Beats out.  I always liked the red and white combination and the new Haros were looking sweet with their two-tone paint jobs.  So, I painted my chrome TA up two-tone white and chrome and sported it out with red and white parts.  This is the frame/fork I brought to the UK in 1984 and the only freewheel setup I've ever had on a BMX bike.  It's currently being built to it's 1984 tour glory.

  • Frame: 1984 TA Chrome + rattle-can white
  • Forks: TA custom straight rake for freestyle
  • Bars: Skyway EZ bars Scotty Freeman model
