The one

[Devilock]

No collection just one bike, what would you choose...?

You could have a full-on exotic build comprised of NOS components but you need to consider if that would truly mean something to you.

I think I would choose a completely NOS Super Tuff.

That's easy Rich, my Park Retrogoose. Old school looks but newschool tech - best bike I've ever owned and ridden and will be the very last item to leave my cave when I'm old and can't ride anymore

My 1978 Team Mongoose if it had to be one of those old crappy things...... the mk1 Goose is iconic and reminds me of the very first BMX I ever saw even to this day - they always looked like they'd been welded in a shed made from bits of tube and plate and box-sections found lying around

I should probably put loads of expensive 70's parts on it, but that's not my bag baby so I'm just glad it's hanging on the wall and it brings a smile to my face when I go into my man-cave. Obviously I brush past it to reach for my Retrogoose, but hey-ho, I still ride and I'm not gonna do it on an antique now am I

I'd love to have a Looptail PK Ripper. Never owned or even ridden one but drooled oven them back then and still do.

Feel free to send me one.

my bike from back in the day without question
sold it in my teens for 50 quid 
wasnt owt special in fact i have no idea who made it but it was red & chrome and had ambrosio rims
i remember the evening my parents surprised me with it
i had had a nasty fall off the back of my raleigh boxer and had hurt the back of my head, my parents bought me a halfords helmet and it was sitting on the kitchen table, they then said you might as well have a bmx to go with it and led me too it!!!

my lovely Dad upgraded parts for me through pestering, mx1000's ame grips, sm mushies and the like. I remember halfords on corporation street brum having a big closing down sale and comin home on the 50 bus armed with sr cranks, hubs, stem

Lost my Dad a couple of years back and to think that he spent the time to choose and buy this bike for me would make still owning it now even more special !!
shame i dont and a big regret but hey hoh

Thanks Dad, miss you mate x

PS Thanks Rich
was actually nice to remeniss
bought a big smile to my face when I recalled the night I got my lovely BMX

Forever Hooked 

[oldtired]

Team Murray , blue one , lester mags , my first bmx ,  still get the xmas morning butterflies when i see one ,  would have to be a nos one in a box not a resto though ,  (i know no chance  )  , was the first bike i was left alone to fix and repair myself , and buy parts for , the old man was a roadie rider and showed  me a few bits before but was uninterested in doing anything with a bmx as he thought it was a fad and would be binned in six months ,   took me ages to convince him to get me it , £96 was a lot back then and it was in the house built in the spare room from sep '80 waiting for xmas day  , 

never had the desire to want the "best of the best" millon quid bike, even back then , never had the brass, and we hardly ever saw top end stuff round our way.

 Like most on here  i started riding bmx as the "craze" took off and having a bike you could launch of a bit wood without the forks folding up when you landed was the best thing ever, hacking round the woods on knobbly tires getting covered in mud n shite ,

 later on it became a way of getting out of the house as the old man was a bit of a coont most of the time, so bmx was always a way to remove myself from that  , and it all started with a pos heavy as fook funny looking bike ,   that means a lot to me i suppose,

I thought that this would be an easy choice, as my OS 'collection' only amounts to 2 bikes

Always thought that it would be the Silverfox, as that what I had BITD but if push came to shove I think I'd keep the Ripper, the amount of time I spent over every bit of the build and the way it rides makes it very special.

If I could somehow get hold of my original, actual Silverfox though, that would be the one - complete with GT layback, black Z rims, Sharp grips and Suntour seat clamp and headlock.

[WINI]

Gott be the BITD bike for me too.  I remember chosing an Ammaco freestyle King after seeing one in Watson Cairns bike shop in Leeds, but later found them cheaper over in Manchester and after adding some pocket money of my own, managed to get the Pro instead.  Found the box under a bed in my Grans house before Xmas and almost pi55ed myself.  I can still remember the shiny Pro Class hoops at the end of the box when I sneaked a look.

So, 1985 Ammaco Pro Class in Chrome if push came to shove, with the exact spec it had (apart from a cheap stem which I snapped very quickly and got a GT mallet instead)

[CustardLips]

My bitd GT Pro. 
I'll build it one day. 

[NORTY40]

Easy for me , my first BMX from bitd MT Silverfox ...... still got it and it will be the one that never goes 

[bodamus]

Easy one for me my Kuwahara Exhibitionist wont part with it everything else has come and gone including a Nomura, Slingshot Hutch's and many more but this one has always stayed with me

[MartyC]

Easy for me, ACE Racing pro with red Uni hammerhead, Race Inc bars, chrome Arayas, Mongoose skinwalls, DC 890, Oakley IIs,  Sugino 1 piece crank, MKS BM7 pedals...

It wouldn't be left outside under my mates kitchen window this time around.

[Jaan]

DeCoster... If I was living in Florida again...

[southern andy]

One bike i could keep out of MY bikes, it would be my Profile Champ Pro.

[bigfatolly]

My Rickman Freestyler that was nicked in 86.
I built a replica of it but I always dreamt of seeing someone riding it so I could get it back.
Replica I still love though....

[Betty]

My new school S&M it's the only bike I own now, and the only one I want to keep
