Redline BMX 1982 Old School For Sale!

[BLACK6PACK]

wonder how much some of my stuff is worth. I can't find anything on the elf frames, and bars to which I have a perfect set of pads. Have Hutch hubs on the arai wheels, bullseye cranks etc on my race bike. The diamondback which I converted to freestyle after buying the ELF has mostly left over parts. It does have an old set of Freestyle CW bars with the dual crossbar. I think my diamondback was a "Formula", but can't remember now. That was close to 25 years ago.

Ok... So who all is going to B.G. that has been or still is a BMX'er?... Especially, vintage??

We need to bring our bikes and have a get-together there!! I probably won't be there until late Thursday night or the wee-wee hours of Friday AM.

Profile is making some 40th anniversary retro box cranks this year. You can pre-order them at www.coloredtuffs.com. The are supposed to be exact replicas of the first generation Profile cranks. Knight bmx products makes some Profile replica spiders to fit on the newer style cranksets.

Ok... Here's a question?? My Profile Rocket frame in the avatar is a late '90's F&F set, I believe. Should I put the 40th anniversay edition retro-cranks on it, or some of the newer style?? Opinions??

I'll probably be at BG watching my brother run is yellow TSM car. I'd like to bring one of my bikes, but it won't fit in the carry-on compartment.

I'll challenge anyone to a wheelie contest though. Its been a few years, but I could probably start at the starting line ride it all the way down the 1/4 turn around with the wheel in the air and ride it back... if the bike has brakes. My elf currently doesn't have brakes, so that makes it a little more difficult!

I don't get the bike out much, but if the GN is at the shop, I'll hop on the bike and ride it 6 miles to pick up the GN. I call it extreme urban cruising. With no reflectors or brakes, I ride sidewalks, ditches etc., its not really safe to ride on the roads down here. When it comes time for an emergency stop, its the good old "stick your shoe where the back brake goes" :biggrin:

I'll have to find some pix of my old bikes Schwinn Predator, GT Mach One, Free Agent Limo. Wow I didn't no there was a BMX section. lol Racing bike was my favorite thing in the world to do as a kid. Sponsored by the local bike shop on a team with all your ridding buds building new jumps every couple weeks out in the sticks. I wish I could do it all over again.

I think my Trick Star cost $499.00 way back in 1984, that was crazy money for a bike, hell still is. Thank god that thug stole my $80.00 Open Road allowing me to get it, lol.

Great, now you guys made me find another old bike I had and I may buy it to restore one. My dad paid like $599.00 for it after my Hutch was stolen, lol. As you guys can tell, I lived in a high crime area for a few years.

Found out yesterday that the 35-40 year old class is the biggest and most competitive class at our local track. They put a 15 and 17 year old in with us and they got beat by the old guys. I have alot of work to do to get caught up.

I renewed as novice, get to the track and find out that we have an ex B-pro and a couple of former experts in the class, and 2 of them are national number holders. I might drop down to rookie for this year.

What bike are you going to ride? I need to find one that matches my 6'3" 210lb. size. Maybe then I'll check out our local track @ Hornet Nest Park.
