As the year is coming to an end, I thought it would be cool to review what we all finished this year!

Here are mine.

83 Profile - Completed Mid 06

83 GT Pro - Late 06

(actually a couple of era correct parts to be changed soon)




Both



Getting a little carried away...






It has been fun...and I've got one more to come but it won't be done till 07!

Show us yours!

Nice work.

Hey Andy, didn't you put the Patterson together and the Hutch this year? Got a couple a pic's?

My two early Free Agent Limos. I've wanted a Limo since I was in high school- finally got around to building 2 of them!

Thanks to LOU for the awesome paint on the baby blue one!


Limo's are nice and LOOONG!


Red one is a survivor- original mint paint & decals

early Limo frame- no chainstay brace

Nice baby blue colour FA!

Kuwahara...long gone now.


Unidentified 26 incher....

Ok.

Well I built this Hutch Pro Racer 'rider' (a few things have/are changing on it):


This Kuwi KZ1:


and the Patty PR200 Pro:

I do have a chain on the Kuwi....

1981 Supergoose...built as a tribute to a friend and best rider here in the early 80s who rode one just like it. To me, this completely typifies the golden years.

Cool Limo's, they would be a fairly roomy rider I would think. Love the Kuwie and also that Hutch. The Mongoose photo could have been taken in 82! Just perfect.

It is such a cool feeling to stand back after all the hard work of building them and just let the memories come flooding back the more you look at them.

I have also re-discovered how much fun it is to ride them. I have been riding the GT and after putting the DK XXL stem and 2 n 1 on, I'm amazed how comfortable it is....The only difference is I don't skid the Comp III's like I did 20 + years ago!

Every one of the bikes shown is cool...the 81 goose reminds me of a friends bike from BITD too, but that 83 Profile brings me to tears. Beauty.

This one came together easily in just a few weeks this year. All it needed was some fresh pedals and rubber parts and a bunch of scrubbing.

Another build that went smoothly for me this year:




Bigger fish to fry in '07.....

1978 Team Mongoose

That is drop dead SWEET, that blue is awesome!

These are all really nice builds. I am very impressed. I enjoyed those pics. Tim, my hats off man, especially since you are in a different collecting time period than me which makes it even more difficult for you.

84, are those red Hutch hubs on your GT?

2 of 6 build this year. 85 Robby & Unknown Year Champ Pro.

Here is 2 of 3 completed in 2006!
the other one should be completed before Christmas! (fingers crossed)
My Phaze 1

and My GT Team Series! The Loop PK was my first build, and my actual first BMX bike!


BIG IDEAS for 2007!!!

Jon

some awesome bikes here.

I'll add some freestyle lol.Both built this year.

Hutchhound....I'm not a freestyle guy, but those 2 bikes are in my TOP 5!!! The trickest finish ever...

Oh yeah, Apollo those hubs you ask about are GT (which I had anodo in red). If they were Hutch, I would be kicking back with my superannuation sorted!

J.T.

Hutchhound Im no freestyle guy but that candy blue TS is ridiculous. Nice F'n bikes.

my bikes are not worthy to be in this company
I picked this one up early in the year, it's my 1st bike, I know it's not BMX, but a lot of us learned to ride a 2 wheeler on somthing like this, AMF "circa 78"

Redline RL20 II, I built this one as a rider, and it's my 1st old-skool build

Redline PL 24 AL, mid-skool w/ some old skool flair, my fave bike if I'm going to ride more than a few miles..

06 Sport, not much of a "build", just swapped out a few parts, still a fun bike, and I dont have to worry about breakin nuthin..

Haro Invert "Rat" just a spray bombed extra parts build, usually a loaner if my friends want to go for a cruise..

I just saw TWO Hutch's that I liked.

Someone pinch me

WOW guys.I appreciate that.Once you see all the builds in one thread, it will be hard to top in 07'

I already have a jump start.

'83 Bandito Pro

Wow! These are all awesome builds!

84, that was funny and that is why I had to ask, I would have been surprised to see Hutch on your GT. Awesome bikes man.

Here is most of my new stuff for 2006. 2007 will be even bigger.

Mainly new school stuff, but still fun to build!

Kappa 24" Quad


Kappa PK-20


My brother's RL20-II from back in the day that I restored for him for his 40th birthday


- Bob

Killer bikes, all of them! I love seeing your builds, always a great means of inspiration and eye candy. I will have some up next year, for now a couple Prolines 79-81, 70s Littlejohn cruiser and one old and one newer Schwinn cruisers, just holding out for the all correct parts and trying to balance funds with my 71 Monte Carlo restoration.

Just curious, anyone have an old Cinelli 20"? I always remembered seeing ads for the gold F/F in my old mags but have never seen one built up?

Here's mine - Hutch Pro Star Replica - mostly NOS stuff.

Finished around last month (found some NOS Urchin pedal cages!!)

I had a busy year, 1 Quad, 1 PK, and 1 PL24. You can expect to see another loop PK Ripper, loop Mini Ripper and GT 24 in 2007. Happy Holidays and I hope you enjoy the eye-candy.

here are 3 I put together for our ABA Grands display.
