Love the vibe of this. Really bored of "factory correct" builds. Seen 1 seen em all. This took me right back there. Excellent work!
Many thanks. Although I appreciate the time an skill that go into the " factory correct builds"  for me it just wouldn't be fun!

I absolutely love this build, takes me right back to probably my favourite old school period. I had an electric blue Pro Performer at the time and I covered that with fluro Anarchic Adjustment stickers. Top job, would love to do something similar myself!  :daumenhoch:

Agreed, that was my favourite era to!
The dawn of proper street riding.

Love those magazine scans also...anyone got any more to post up?!

And where did you get those Anarchic Adjustment stickers? I want some!

Cheers, it's been great fun researching, collecting and building. I recommend  building a 86 to 88 street rider!

Can't believe I've only just seen this thread!  That is the mutts nuts mate, love it! There was a Performer on the cover of Action bike that was similar and the only Performer I really wanted to build. Gets my vote, stick it in BOTM  fistblump

I've had a shit week so far ... dealing with shit news about good people ... and injuries myself ... so its great to get to Wednesday and things start improving.

Steve ... if I said someone had shown Nick Philip my instagram pick of your bike I bet you'd be stoked :-)

Well they did ... instagramer BSDForever showed Mr Anarchy himself ... this is what he had to say ...

""He did a good job in replicating it. I had fake barbed wire on my bmx (it had plastic barbs on it) and created a huge scandal with concerned parents thinking we were setting a dangerous example for for the kids. We had to actually show pictures later that they were just plastic. He did a good job of approximating that."

 fistblump how rad is that ... well done bud

that gt street set-up reminds me of a INTRO article in R.A.D back in the late 80s, with a guy called COW doing a wall ride out of a fly off ramp 8) hes riding a stickered and newspaper colarged GT/freestyler 86-88 model, with black skyways plus odd pedals and very cool/ghetto looking :daumenhoch:
