Is it treasure or trash?

[oldgit1]

and would be ok for a thrasher

i was looking at that.


ive seen that seat gusset somewhere before, but i cant think where,


citibikes do a range of bikes, but i didnt think they stretched to bmx's


maybe its had different decals on...longshot though.

Now know wat it is thanks to another post and it seems to be a faze 7?Never heard of them before but apparantley there a well built bike made for bike shops to sell under there name its made from reynolds tubing so it should be a quallity bit of kit.Looks a bit like a beefed up firebird i think,might even be a quite rare and valuable thing?

[oberonspacefruit]

no, but its a good start.

[oldgit1]

Neva mind ive got a 1984 robinson pro as well.Got it as a full bike and only paid £20 for it.

[oberonspacefruit]

yeah, that looks cool. oxalic acid is a good tool for rust, but that one probably does need a powder to bring it up right.

[oldgit1]

Should get it started soon so ill get some pics on when finished

i spent ages drawing them

if it's a chrome one go with the rebel stickers

the faze 7's were all painted iirc

[ronnie360]

good buy for 23 quid 

[oldgit1]

Think i am gonna go for the rebal stickers.Does anyone know where i could get a set from.

[zed4130]

is that a 501 reynolds sticker  i think its a bargain 

[oldgit1]

Think it is, not got the bike yet should get it next week.Does anyone out there know wat the spec would be for the rebal version.

Isn't it a Reynolds 531 sticker   

[zed4130]

im sure reynolds did a 501 ,its a cheaper tubing ?

[oldgit1]

Looking a other bikes that ive seen i think it is a 531

[theRuler]

im sure reynolds did a 501 ,its a cheaper tubing ?

the bars were 501 (and seatposts) and the f+f were 531 iirc

on that frame will be a 531 sticker

got a feeling those frames were made in england too.
