Hi there
« on: January 26, 2016, 04:36 PM »
Hi there,

I've just joined up after having a sudden rush of BMX nostalgia!

It started recently when I decided to do up the mid skool Dyno Comp that was rusting in my garage. It's going to my 8 year old in a month for his birthday. It's cleaned up a treat and now has some new Skyways on it :)

I've just bought  myself a Super Burner frame from ebay (this was my first bike) so am going to build that. Expect a lot of questions in the coming weeks...

Cheers,

Andy

Andy, it's a long slow decline which all starts with the excitement of an ebay win. :)

great to have you onboard

You may think it's only a Burner frame mate but brace yourself... you'll soon be on the hard stuff.  :LolLolLolLol:

Thanks for the welcome chaps  :)

I really wanted a Rickman Freestyler frame but saw the Burner frame and thought it would be cool to recreate my old bike. Rickman/Skyway/DP can be the next project (depending on how this one goes...

Here's before and after shots of the Dyno (Dyno now has some ODI Mushrooms and needs new pedals!).

Before:



After:



Cheers,
Andy

 :welcome mate !! A nice start there!
 :radbmxsmilie: wouldn't be  :radbmxsmilie: without a "move those bars" comment from someone  :LolLolLolLol: don't  take it personally mate..
Now move those bars !  :P 8) ;)

it's all part of the banter and usually helpful advice ( we're generally a caring bunch  :daumenhoch: )

No offence taken, I was expecting it to be honest  ;D

I'm just surprised that no one noticed the chain guard on the before photo. I almost Photoshopped it out before posting!  :-[
