The Story
A couple of years ago we were approached by someone about “a quantity of old BMX parts” he had. After our excitment subsided when we found out it wasn’t a lock-up full of VDC Changas, we went to take a look at what he had. The start of the accompanying video shows the moment when we first saw the scale of what we had here.
Basically this chap had bought this old stock, along with some regular bikes a much of years ago from a bike shop it Bury. Now it looks like they imported these at the time in compotent form as the the duty was lower than complete bikes. There was pretty much everything to make these into complete bikes with two different frames. These would have probably been comparable to a Moto One or something back in the day.
Anyway we took a gamble, hired a van and hauled everything back to Wigan, counted everything up and waited for a time when we could decide what to do with it all. After making some initial plans and making a couple of sample bikes which we displayed at the We Were Rad event at Southsea in April 2023, Alan got seriously ill right after and the project got put on hold.
Fast forward to 2025, all is good and the project is ready to go!
