thats a cool bike (especially for 50 notes)

gooses and skyways and the more expensive bikes are lovely no dout,
but most youngsters back then had the cheaper bmx's which because they where cheap and heavy have long gone.
to me they are the rare birds and worth collecting.

nice buy

tjj

You just can't beat the older cheap heavy bikes .

This weighs about 30lb

So great to see that I was not the only Piranha owner. This was my first BMX, it was bought from a toy shop Rossmore Parade, Ringwood Road Parkstone, last time I was there the shops had been turned into some sWanky flats. Mine was Black with yellow push button pads, v bars and 5 spoke silver mags. I cracked the mags and stuck some mongoose steel rims bought from Ian holloway for £12, the cones always tightened when I rode to scholl and with no warning the back wheel would lock up, I had to turn it upside down and turn the back wheel backwards to undo the cones to enable me to ride a bit more. HA!. He also sold me some white redline push stud pads. I fitted some Oakley 3 copies and a shotgun 2 seat. Also had a Haro type 2 plate on it, man I loved that plate. So anyhow many jumps later I managed to crack the top tube and thought great I will get a new bike. No chance. Dad took it up to Coxys who cut spread the top tube apart, stuck another tube inside and welded the thing back together. Now you think a 6 stone nipper is going to get air on a Piranha any how? Well now it was the heaviest out there.
Great to see the advert, bikes and once again have something in common with some strangers.
