My 7yr old's GT build/next bike

[crightonk]

Bought this f+f ages ago from someone on here, cant remember who. Anyway I was clearing out the garage when my son Kieran spotted all my bmx stuff lying outside, I had all the parts purchased to build it in black with gold parts but the wee man claimed it for his next bike. As I have an '86 performer in white he wanted a white one too but with blue parts. Sent the frame away for powder 2weeks ago and got it back this morning so I made a start. His choice of bits with a little help from me. I have got white and blue A'mes which I have to try and convince him to put on but he loves the blue/white mushies Never done a mid before so here goes!

7 year old Kieran on his own little Performer  Lucky kid -- all my kid got from me was  a Huffy

They are cracking bars kev, nice n wide, thinking of swapping them with a set of nos win ones I have in the shed and keeping the GT's for myself, Fischflo, Kieran is buying into the older bmx bikes big time, he's riding a 1984 mini burner (sorry,hope that's not a swear word over here) Got a pr of blue early tuffs to go on it, not sure how they will look but again it is what he wants

[fischflo]

well, he sure looks like he's having a blast on his burner! My boy hardly ever rides bike let alone his bmx -- i wonder if he would really miss the red tuffs....  Nice pics, great to see it's also kids getting into it, not just erm 'older' guys

Cant get him off it, every day after school without fail

Got it built up yesterday with spoked wheels, dyed a set of old tuffs today which Kieran wants on the bike. I think they will look pretty good as the colour is better than these rims, gonna take some pic's tomorrow with them on and maybe have a vote off

[aerostylie]

Here goes, I was attracted to this topic for purely wholesome reasons,  I am NOT fixated by 7 year olds despite owning/operating a beard. Here follows pictures of my eldest lad and his cutesy ride...... Some nice parts on it i'm sure you'll agree..
