I think im having a mid life'er [again] :rolleyes:

Im after a pre 90's to 91 Old school BMX, Freestyler or Street.. i dont mind thumbsup {may even consider Track bike}

Looking for either..

Daimond back
GT
Mongoose
Skyway
Hutch
Haro
CW or Wilson


Im not fussed on condition 'coz the whole point of getting one is to restore it thumbsup

So if you have one Rusting away in your Mums attic or shed, dig it out 'coz i may buy it from you thumbsup

Funnily enough I have (at some time or another) owned all the BMX's on R1CHYs list and also a Hutch trickstar identical to that one, apart from the tyres.....they helpfully came with flite cranks and beartrap pedals... beartraps (as you can see from the foto) are THE most evil fcuking pieces of equipment EVER....a mate tore a nice 12" long hole in his shin with those fokkas :( :o :( edit: I kept the handlebars off the trickstar cos i liked em so much....can be seen on my original foto ;)

Bloody hell, I only chucked my old one out a couple of years ago, Silverfox thing with Skyway mags. Spent a fortune on it as a kid. I still have the battered shinbones from the beartraps though, evil fuckers they were :blink: Biggest leap ever made was over a half built house, it was almost up to 1st floor level. *Massive* run up, huge ramp. Unfortunately my feet slipped off the pedals half way over, the back wheel twatted the edge of the landing ramp and accelerated upwards at a massive rate of knots, the seat of course contacted rather 'sharply' with the first things in it's way upwards, my nuts :blink: :blink: :blink: Cue hospital trip and a large syringe & needle to drain off the 'swelling' :o You know, that actually hurts to remember :rolleyes:
