Looks great for what you're doing with it mate, see if you can get some oversized cone nuts & washers to stop mulching the dropouts up?Your stem reminds me of the Smash advert!?

I bought the bike new... Edwardes in Camberwell. They's obviously struggled to flog the frame and made her up with cheap parts to try and shift her that way. Cost about the same as the then-RRP for the frame only, but the RRP on these has plummeted since!Anyway, I've changed most parts - wheels, bars, headset, bottom bracket, saddle for example - but the stem is one thing that I never got round to, and I spend more time on MTBs now. Just made up a GT Chucker as a 26" wheel single speed, rigid fork jump bike which will almost certainly relegate the BMX to even more infrequent use.I am curious to know what she might be worth - gut feel is that someone might pay £100-£120 on the basis they can strip her, sell most of the parts and be left with a couple of parts and the frame as a a freebie or small profit. Frame only worth? Gut feel sweet FA despite being in decent nick!Other food relate parts? Bronson bars - he'd eat you for breakfast. Apple-logo stickers.And Ray, I'd be interested in seeing your chain tugs if you can be arsed to take a photo and post it.
I sold the frameset and bars for £75 posted if that helpds. But that was 2hip bars, stem and forks
