GT/Aero Reflex Riders
« on: September 18, 2007, 03:44 PM »
.....spent most of the last 3 months packing boxes and moving the family from the west coast of Scotland down to Wiltshire ;)...... as a result I have been mostly renovating our new house and not had much time for my BMX which have been packed away and in storage  >:(

Managed to find a bit of time over the past couple of weeks and whenever I have found a spare minute I've been building up a couple of riders for the missus and me .....  ;D

First of all, bought this 85 GT Performer F+F, bars and stem a while back from Del (cheers mate!)and have finally built it up (just waiting on a seat post decal) - was sunny today so I thought I'd take a few pics..... :smitten:

thanks to Del, Hunterdubber, Dr Skyway and cbrgil for the parts  :daumenhoch:









 

Also wanted to build a budget BMX for the missus as she's very understanding of this hobby and doesn't really give me any grief over spending money on parts etc  8)

Still a work in progress as I need to fit a new rear axle/freewheel/chain and need to strip and polish the pedal cages, but as it was sunny I thought I'd take some pics anyway ;)

This is an aero reflex F+F,  thanks to Harris and orgasmdonor for Tuffs and bars  :daumenhoch:







Just trying to decide whether to leave the F+F as is in shiny nice chrome, or have some custom decals made up - thoughts please!

My old GT looks great, you did a great job on that, loving the black parts on the yellow F&F. Did you strip the stem?
Oh and I'd leave the Aero chrome.  :)

cheers Del  :daumenhoch:
stripped the stem and gave it a good workover with a dremel, turned out a treat - tempted to paint it black to match the rest of the parts eventually, but will leave as is for now  8)
