INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE STREET BEATThanks to Maurice about this informations!The first prototype, a chrome model is given to Dave Vanderspek in 1984 and is taken on the European tour. This frame is a one of a kind and is featured in Freestylin' and BMX Action Bike in the UK.The first production models are produced and given to Dave and Maurice just before the 1985 AFA Masters contest in San Diego. Dave's frame was chrome and Maurice's was orange. The chrome frame was never mass-produced. These first Street Beats had a different decal set that was never made available to the consumers. This sticker set can be seen in the first Street Beat advertisement with the "Surface to Air Engineering" title. The first models in 1985 were white, orange and green.In 1986, the two tone Street Beats are introduced. Later in 1986, the Street Beats are modified with a tapered tube fork with capped and angled ends. These are considered the 87 models. The lower end Street Styler is released.In 1988, the chrome and colored Street Beats, Street Stylers and new Street Scene models are released. The TA style teardrop tubing is no longer used.
