after [playing with my kids on their bmx and telling them about bmx i used to have, a falcon pro in particular, i had a look to see if i could get some thing just to knock about on with the children. i was amazed how much old school bmx where selling for on ebay so cos i didnt have £200 quid upwards readily avaiable i decided to buy frame and forks and build one myself when i had some spare cash.
i cant remember much about my old falcon pro cos it got nicked but it was chrome and did have mx calipers and levers ogk mags and v bars
so i found a falcon pro freestyler frame and forks on ebay for £30 and started from there
it was a bonus when it came with a nos hatta headset
then i got a sr stem, seat post, seat and takagi spider chainwheel and crank new bb bearings and thats where im up to till i get some more spare cash

Looks promising, some nice examples in chrome in the museum if you're after a little inspiration :daumenhoch:
Look forward to seeing how it turns out.
