This was my homage to the bike I always wanted to have when I was a kid and fell in love with BMX's. I built it up as a project bike with mainly NOS parts but the cranks are current (originals just weren't available long enough and I'm 6'5'') and I'm using SPD pedals because I'm a roadie and like to be clipped in.
