Schwinn Predator 24" cruiser
« on: April 20, 2010, 11:21 PM »
Schwinn Predator frame & forks purchased on US BMXmuseum site, after placing a post for old school 24" cruiser .. which proved quite difficult to find 'this side of the pond'. Don't like the new ones. Shipped over to UK (via HM customs  :(). This is my 1st build up from a frame & took  about 4 months to get all the bits together.












My 'stable' now includes 16", 20" & 24" BMX bikes .... guess I need a 26"  one next!!

It rides great, took it out on a 10 mile ride along the Thames Path shortly after these photos. Hope you like.

Special thanks to: bmxghostrider, buttsbikeshop,  stellaartoiz, bendycat, dazbmx, del & esemdesign.

Spec:
Schwinn Predator frame & forks, Comp III tyres, Cruiser wheels, Raleigh Foreign calipers, MKS pedals, Takagi CR-MO crank, Suntour chainwheel, Raleigh Burner rear & wheel reflectors, Raleigh Burner seatpost, Suntour stem, AME grips, DC Tech IV levers, Raleigh Mini Burner handlebars, Aero-type seat, Schwinn seatclamp, custom pads (esemdesign), custom decals (del), repo Schwinn headbadge

Cheers

Sion  :)

daz bmx it!

I'm likin' that  :daumenhoch: , what dordy means ^^ ref the seat is that it's far too far forward on the guts ( or guts are round the wrong way like Bob said ) .
