Well just in case you don't know when I was 13 yrs old I got mugged in a skatepark in London,

that was the day I stopped riding BMX's

And then on the 15th november last year I found RADBMX and after I'd got all excited and built a streetbeat I thought it would be good to build the bike I got mugged on

well I never had any photos to work with and I know some of the parts aint quite correct but it looked just like this when I brought it home from Alpine Action in early in 1982 "BUZZIN"

How I found it on the bay

Not exactly the finished article, but the Children in need cruise has kinda forced me hand

I,d like to get it how it was when it was knicked, but no rush

cheers Flaz
