My latest Project has arrived !!!
« on: August 24, 2011, 08:49 PM »
This was my 1st ever Bmx
A Cycle Pro Falcon
By no means a top of the range Bmx but I loved it  :smitten:

I've already fooked the forks ( see previous thread )  :LolLolLolLol:
Some-one may be able to help though hopefully
Had a quick go razor blading some of the rust off, but it appears to be what looks like
tiny nicks left in the frame.

Im gonna persevere & try & clean it up as best I can & give it a polish
but it may end up being powdered
Any thoughts ?? Should I try keep it Survivor looking  :-\

Personally, if I was doing it and I know I would keep it as it was my first BMX, I would get it re-chromed and have the bars chromed too  :daumenhoch:

Looks like a great starting point dude  :coolsmiley:
