Recently swapped this for a SC Big Ripper , 90% survivor , was sent over to me in bits , so had a good clean
nice ride this one , big plus for me it has the free coaster ........

So after a good clean up , it needed new cables a chain , tires and a change of grips , i had some 80's og Ame
so they look a treat on it ..........

Didn't change any spokes as wanted to keep it as og as possible ............cheers

Very nice never seen one before

Gnarlyscoots · « **Reply #2 on:** May 03, 2016, 11:24 AM »

Super cool

I have an '87 frame set and bars, plus some smalls, that I am in between re-doing. It came to me stripped, sadly, so I couldn't keep it original.

Just perfect

That's really cool

looks superb and lets face it anything looks better than one of those Santa Cruise things

Taipan · « **Reply #13 on:** May 03, 2016, 07:49 PM »

I really like that

and especially the way you've built it as a survivor

dancetothedrummersbeat · « **Reply #14 on:** May 03, 2016, 08:07 PM »

Very nice. Never seen one of these before. Great work

Banachek · « **Reply #15 on:** May 04, 2016, 09:35 PM »

I have one of these coming over to me. Not all original like yours. Great job on the sympathetic resto.
From what I've read they only made 500 of these, not many around now.

nosepickben · « **Reply #16 on:** May 04, 2016, 09:53 PM »

That's a funky machine, og and rideable.

gary4130 · « **Reply #17 on:** May 04, 2016, 10:06 PM »

very nice bike mate

nice to see it's 90% survivour
always liked those DB's

Mikku · « **Reply #18 on:** May 05, 2016, 01:58 AM »

Don't often come over to the freestyle section but my interest was piqued by seeing one of these in Tokyo last weekend, so had to have a closer look at yours!

I love a survivor build and this one's great, plus it looks like a roomy rider to boot. It also shares the same Tioga disc as I've now got on my Free Agent, which first came to me on a Haro Group 1. I wasn't sure when they were made but see that it was factory-spec on these, so I guess that makes it mid/late-80s-ish.

Btw, where's the seaside backdrop?

radovr · « **Reply #19 on:** May 05, 2016, 02:57 PM »

Cheers guys yeah really glad to have this one in the collection it's a cool looking ride . Not too many kicking around these days . Also had to change the seat post as it didn't come with one so used a period correct drain pipe thought it looked right for the build.

The beach , around 50 km south of Perth WA

Very nice. I have an 88 Mike Dominguez frame

stuntmaster · « **Reply #21 on:** May 05, 2016, 07:53 PM »

brettypeeps · « **Reply #22 on:** May 05, 2016, 09:42 PM »

Liking that. Love the quirky back end .

Great to see you keeping it as original as possible

adenough · « **Reply #23 on:** May 05, 2016, 11:30 PM »

My 88 MD before it was stripped...

adenough · « **Reply #24 on:** May 05, 2016, 11:31 PM »

The MD has no coaster tab as he didn't ride one ....nor spikes on the rear standers. Full 4130
