Hello everyone,
Just wanted to ask for some help regarding my old BMX
I've been rebuilding my old Team Karate BMX and have got it pretty much looking like it was BITD.
I sourced some pads on ebay but the finishing touch would be to get some decals made up.

Anyone remember what Team Karate stickers looked like?? would be much appreciated.

thanks in advance
Dan

Not Araya, Spencer rims. Just been re-anodised. Didn't take long to re-lace them up but took over an hour to straighten them!! they were all over the place.

Hi Beard

I like that, nice frames those as Funmonster says, same as the ProCraft

Good work on resto too, those rims have come up a treat and so has the rest of the bike

Thanks for all the nice comments guys.
Just need the finishing touch with the decals.
Just have no idea what they looked like.
I think they may have been black writing saying Karate. Not sure though.
Really wish I'd taken a photo of it 24 years ago!!
Doesn't appear to be anything on the internet about them either, not surprising I guess.
