Like I said, the red John Jennings seat would be the final touch. The green on the current seat makes it look like a christmas tree (lol), but the new post and clamp look sweet:

Thought i'd throw this out there

war pig
slams
pitchforks for sale in here: http://www.vintagebmx.com/community/index....wtopic=27029902

would be a killer rebuild

I still have it and ride it!

not mid school, but it's a S&M randy brown!!!

Updated the Dirtbike a bit. Got the stickers on, straight seatpost and put the pitbull back up top(works much better).






Also just pulled this one out of the box(put it up on ebay). An 18" Dirtbike Junior Frame. Something you don't see every day:

new school from last weekend's race...

S&M Challenger International

My second gen Holmes...

they need a few sets of these bad boys

I'd kill for a set of those cranks.

they took me years of hunting..they are around ,mostly damaged.

I'd bet that's one of the most carefully placed haphazard piles ever.

s&m custom xlaf "21.5tt frame

won bike of the year on radbmx

My S&M 24 in a raw finish. I just picked it up last night....



I know it needs cleaning. Sorry for the crappy pics.

got a dirtbike in the works, as well as a few spare parts

dirtbike = 1993,pitchforks, early dancing man slams, blue redneck shafted w/ wedgie jackie, 1st gen prince alberts, NOS super pros

Sportsmetal,

Are those Plazmatic brake pads? If so, how are they working out, and have you tried them on a chrome rim?

I was wondering why these bikes are so expensive and why everyone wants them so bad. Not being a smart ass at all just wondering if there's something extra neat I haven't learned yet that's all. I like that they are just a normal bike thats kinda cool to me.

With S&M you're paying top dollar for strength and quality. They've been building bulletproof frames for a long, long time. Plus they are made 100% in the US. The warranties are tops too.

it really marked a change in the WHOLE bmx scene thats still present to this day,
rock out with your [I tried to curse] out! its an S&M!!!




dude with the blackbike,
seriously amigo, tuffs! on that frame????

you need to sit down and have a proper word with yourself mate,rofl!

I have damaged knees and ankles... the zytel tuffs are the only way I can street ride anymore because they absorb shock. I built this bike to ride, not to show.

Love this bike, wished I owned one.

2003 stricker

Digging this thread up w/ a pic of my '00 S&M 24 and '98 Challenger w/ 990s both in a raw finish, Challenger bars, stem, and decals along w/ I'm guessing a rare S&B (Shaun Butler) shield sticker?!?! I'm just looking for a pair of Challenger forks to start my build .

How often do the Kris Bennett bikes come around? I am curious to see if there are any out there. I can only remember the black one with the white red sticker combo. It's one of the few bikes I wanna build, aside from an older powerblue Hoffman Taj.

awesome Kris Bennett..... makes me jealous.

With decals even!

/jealousy

Oh, wait a minute! You can't have that little gear on there! You need a 45 pound dinner plate!

...and not to get nit picky but I think Kris Bennett from that era would tell you that you have to have two piece bars (painted probably) and a knobbie up front. I swear I'm not the era-correctness police! OK, maybe I am.

I know that bike is sick as FACK......... I don't mind it not being completely era correct. It's sweet regardless.

Thanks guys! I wanted to lighten the load, when I got it (spray bombed blue as above) it weighed in at: 35.86 pounds without pegs
Its now 31.82 with pegs! I ride it so I wanted it as light as possible. Im waiting for a few different parts, when Ive fitted them Ill post new pics. Im considering using kevlar beaded tyres to lower the weight a bit more. I could use a pivotal seat and post also but I like this fit seat.

Some of the S+M stuff I have

The all over shield print stem, sprocket and clamp are going on my Bennett, going to do that now

about time i finished this. been a while since i have done anything. it's a '96 DirtBike. got this frame from a friend a while back. He used to race/trails/street on it back in the late 90's. I had to have some chain rub and chainstay/dropout grind scuffs on the frame TIG'd-in. then i grinded/sanded the spots down and had it powdered yellow. just cosmetic stuff. i even made sure the chain and freewheel were era correct. arent I a good boy... sorry the pix came out fuzzy cuz its cold out and i forgot about that effect on the lens. i just ran out & in with bike and cam without fartin' around much...damn nippy out there right now.

Here's my 24:

'Spin - I like the red/yellow combo.. Nice cranks

my s&m challenger

Maybe you should tell it to this guy!:

Tuffs on a Mad Dog - quite all right.
Tuffs on a Black Bike - I'm sorry, it just ain't right.
-Bill

Fixed that for ya!

Actually, I wouldn't put Tuff's on it either but I respect the man's right to do with his bike what he wants.

Posted this one before, but some hacker took down the host site, so...















Almost sold it a few times, but gladly came to my senses... My little guy keeps asking if he can have it when he gets a bit bigger




Steve

Don't think I ever posted my Mad Dog in this thread.

Its an 88.
