wanted to say hello.......I've been back into this for the past 18 months - did not have a clue this was all going on until I started looking on the bay for a 26" after seeing a courier in london on a flyer.......and regretted leaving behind my ride from bitd in the shed of my old house in 2004 (I checked - its gone, a tricked out Gt Pro Performer in chrome bought from RadCity in 85!)
Anyway, bought an OM Flyer to blast around on and now have 5 projects on the go:
84 Redline Prostlyer RL20 and an 82 Cherry Blue PK with unstamped landing gear - all parts bought just waiting to build up
A Yellow GT Pro Performer 1982 Santa Ana made, repainted and shipped over from Chip at C4 labs - just keeping the frame as a thing of beauty.
A GT Pro World Tour that I bought from Bettypeeps - need rebuilding with some NOS Unitrons and GT rear standers, a set of 50/50 tuffs, shimano dx pedals in gold, some GT Gen 3 tyres and a set of chrome GT mach 3 forks.
A NOS Haro Master in neon green.
hope to post some pictures of the builds in due course.
BITD the 10 - 2 session on a Sunday morning at Rom was my hang out from 82-86. Used to go with my friend Carl S, who's now in France, and used to meet up with a guy from Harrow who we named Toungey? Wss also a member of the Critical Crew in Upminster with our own quarter pipe and trick ramp in my friend Andy's front garden - used to pull quite a crowd then!!
Glad to be back in as its never left me!!
