My daughter has out-grown her Auburn JR20-RX and is not quite big enough for the WTP Justice I picked up for her ... so to bridge the gap I'm working on a mid 90s TNT Pro.

Picked up the frame from BMX Museum and a couple of parts ... chucked it all together last night to see how it looks

Need to carefully remove the decals so Del can reproduce them as he only has the old style ones ... I'm already lovin it tho

This is going to be a great build Ed. Looking forward to seeing you do your thing.

Looks good Ed

Are those cranks not going to be too long for her though?

What's that round the top of the forks & why do I want one

A strip of thin neoprene with velcro and a brandname or other. Popular around 1991, "headcase" was a popular moniker.

Really nice is that Ed

If I ask with a pretty please, would you leave the F&F as it is and not refinish? Just me being a purist twat though.
