new here but which one first ?
« on: November 29, 2013, 04:34 PM »
hey all , new to the site ..

i ve been around bmx since my first bike back in the day ,  ive had  few bikes of which i wish i had kept all of them !!!

such as a redline Rl osborne a hutch trickstar and an aero reflex ( although i did buckle the reflex pretty quickly) but anyway i did keep a few bikes such as two Pr racing experts , a Kuwahara lazerlite and a Rickman freestyler i my old man sheds . i ran a shop selling Bmx for about 6 years a few years back Down here in Brighton so still delt with some of the new school stuff from Seventies and imG etc .

but my question is which of the bikes to start working on ???

as i i find it hard to decide ( the miss's just want me to get rid of them but thats too hard after all these years
 thanks for any help

yeah i think maybe i need to see what i got the most parts for

and go from there !

best way to tidy chrome up i saw someone mention an oxy bath ?????  not sure what that is ???

they may need rechroming  if its not the rickman

Ok got to go pick them all up soon so will hopefully get an idea as to how good a nick they are all in

Check the tech & resto section mate, loads of info in there  :daumenhoch:
Oxalic or Citric acid powder both work well for getting rid of rust
For little bits a Stanley blade, rough clot  & peek are very handy
