Have you got my trickstar?!

[wildon]

My first bike was a Trickstar i got for my 12th Birthday in 86 .. I had it for years until i lent it to a friend of mine i lived with about 1999 .. he left it at another friends council flat as he didnt want to ride home in the rain and got a taxi?! .. for weeks i was on his case to go pick it up .. in the end i went there myself... the guy had moved out and left it there .. the council sent in the house clearers and i never seen it again .. I've always thought it may have just been thrown on a skip or something.
Anyway .. i have just been chatting to emerbmx about where we grew up and used to ride etc and he said he seen a Trickstar with super pros up on ebay a couple of years ago .. from Redditch .. were i lived.  It's a small town and there were only me and my friend who rode TS's.. and he still has his.
I had to put this up to see if anyone bought a bike like that from ebay .. i would love to get it back.
It was chrome but had green Mongoose decade forks on it as i had striped the thread on the Hutch ones and from what i remember it had super pro's, Skyway grabber seat, Tuff neck stem, Action zone bars, Tech 7 levers, nippons, OPC, shimano sx's, Ody gyro.
I know its a long shot .. but you never know.
And if you have it and dont want to sell it, i have a load of Trickstars here and will swap a nice minty frame and forks just for that frame.
There is a weld on the frame which i can identify it by .. just in case someone has the bright idea of stiching me up with an imposter!!

The rear brake pulled the brake bridge off.. i had to have it welded back on one side .. although i think they welded both sides

[HUTCHMAN]
