There's a thought...... I could rat it up. Paint it matt black and weld a barbecue to the back.......

The later stamped hutch donuts are nice and era correct for 86

I made this a few years back out of a dyno fold up stander

^^^^ That's pretty rad Clint!

Nice that is Clint

I like the idea of Hutch. I have a tioga for it at the moment, but it won't go on without me attacking it with a big hammer - probably need 1/4mm taking out to get it on (fits fine on the Stout Boy....... )

looks like it should have a towel through it

Why don't you try a dia compe hinged clamp with a quick release like Dave Nourie used?

How's that work then? I take it it's not OG?

bodamus · « **Reply #14 on:** May 16, 2014, 08:21 PM »

Those grips look longer than normal aswell?

Could even go for a plain old Odyssey the one with holes in. $:-\$ Black or silver are common but other colours pop up too now and again.

i like the Oddy ones, in fact if you want to use a black one a have some and can send you one FOC

Bornintheusa · « **Reply #19 on:** May 24, 2014, 11:32 PM »

My suggestion- look in any bmx mag from 86 and look at the parts manual. Find one that suits your build. Era correct or gtfo (:

Solved it with this bad boy

Proper marmite......

McQUEEN · « **Reply #23 on:** June 05, 2014, 04:43 PM »

I've had one of these, was going to strip it down and use the release on a blue dia compe, and that would be 100% as Dave Nourie had. Good luck with it...
