my 8 year old lad wants a bmx for xmas and he wants a classic looking one lol.
managed to find a decent one in the argos catalogue that he likes.
it's all black and has mag wheels and stunt pegs ect, then i googled 80s bmx's and found some real bad ass looking ones from back in the day.
diamond back, mongoose and gt are but a few, even bikes were better back then lol, todays stuff has no style, what happened

17kg is pretty heavy for a bike...
There is an 80s bmx company which has just come back from the dead, theyre making their 80s bmx again to the same spec, based about 1mile from where i live. theyre called vincent frames, check them out!
I have a MK1 raleigh burner for sale, just needs wheels, would be a good father & son project, you can have for £65 if you like. its true oldschool bmx.
just wait till bendycat turns up! hes all about the bmx

i remember the raleigh burners nice bikes Andy, thanks for the offer on the frame but finding the wheels ect could be a bummer.
like the sound of the vincent company bringing back the bmx, sounds great

finding bmx wheels... not hard man, so many options and theyre cheap.

that's good to know Andy, already ordered the bmx for delivery for his xmas prezzy but if the offers still there after the new year i might take it.
iv'e never built a bike from scratch so maybe a bit of a challenge lol
