With little Little on her way in August I thought I'd try and get a couple of bikes built up before all the chaos

Had this frame set for 4 years and done nothing with it other than admire it or keep it in storage, so I figure let's get some parts on it.

It's part inspired by Mike King's BD III and part tribute to the late Sandy Finkleman (pioneer of BMX and founder of one the coolest race teams and shops ever Wheels N Things).

I'll be changing a few parts before long like the wheels for some 7b's on Phil Wood hubs, grips for Oakley .5's, the 44t chainring for a 40t and I'll probably take an inch of the cable and I might add a race plate at some point. Other than that it's one of my fave vintage SE's 2 of these are known to be in the UK so it's a pretty rare thing

Apart from the tyres, even though I know they're correct, it looks stunning as usual Ash.
