Not a fan of freestyle bikes  :-X

But this does look 80's and its kinda funky  :daumenhoch:

Its nice to see something a bit "left of field" so good on ya  :daumenhoch:

There's 100's of factory builds these days but not many people put their own stamp on their own bike............................like we all did BITD  8)









I would change the red MX1000's and red Skyways............................................................sell them to me tho  >:D
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

I really like it, and i prefer the orange tyres to the red. It would look look with a white seat, grips, wheels etc.  :)

Thanks fella's for all  opinions..........every single one of them(it's much appreciated) :daumenhoch:

An idea popped into my head over the weekend, was thinking about getting the f/forks painted in yellow over the winter & putting on all the red components bar the tyres & grips. Put the orange tyre's/grips back on, i have an orange izumi chain to replace the red.

2 questions, firstly did kashimax ever produce an orange seat? & secondly did DC ever make brake cables in orange?

One more........would 3 colours work on a build?

I can only use the colours of the components i have, as getting back into bmx has almost bankrupted me :laugh: Especially as my current 'rider' build (survivor chrome Sport 85) has gone from a budget build for the summer, into some quality bits i've bought recently sending the budget skywards :10_2_12:

That will defo be the last one ;D, as i need to invest in a new Wilier road bike :smitten:

Buz ;)

Just had a look, it hurt my eye's for a bit.
Then i soaked it up and i like it. :coolsmiley:
If you have gone for impact then i think you've nailed it.

This gives you a right punch in the chops and looks like the sort of stand out, dare to be different builds that were so popular bitd.
Some of the idea's mentioned would probably make the colours go a little more easy on the eye and work well but in the conformity i think the impact would be lost. :daumenhoch:
