so is there a set of rules that we need to abide by for this old school show, what bikes cant be chrome or painted, must have tuffs and one peice cranks, flights or profiles accepted, only the early ones, blah blah and so on, whos call is it to put a restriction on the age limit of an old school bike, personally i think anything before ahead is eligible, still got 10 years of history
v8ute, dont sweat it, bring them along, we just put that on as a guideline so people would get the idea of what it was all about, everyone's welcome !! There's no rules !
no malice intended pete but they are still old and real nice, personally i would much rather look at a nice bike from that era than a 17 inch top tube hotfoot or supermax, that stuff is entry level dude, the gear i have is all high end just like your quadangle, i think people will get a kick out of that too, single fork kastan, square tube nos hawk, team model auburn, gt, robinson, and powerlite, dont stress i got a pk and a profile too
Perhaps it's a good time to get some feedback on HOW MANY people are gonna bring bikes to show, and HOW MANY bikes can they bring?

Reece, here is a black MX2 stem, though its kinda faded purply grey now !
and here's an MX7 -
and here's an MX7 -
Wow I didnt even know there was an MX7!
I'm gonna turn an old faded MX2 into a spiffy new black one (or try to)
As for the bike show v8ute, if someone took the time to restore it, theres no such thing as "entry level" Theres always going to be favourites for some and not for others.

quote:I still cant find where it says "dont bring any 90's bikes"
heywhats with this pre 90 crap, i have a heap of old bikes from 90-92, so what i cant bring them cos they arent from the 80,s
V8ute's bikes kick *** they are all A1 builds and all top line stuff.....
just wait to you see them....
just wait to you see them....
I like that MX7 a bit more class on the MX2 .
quote:Reece , couldn't agree more - well said dude.
theres no such thing as "entry level" Theres always going to be favourites for some and not for others.
how very true, totally agree, if someone puts in the time it is well worthy, and i appreciate all types but anyone can pull a bike out of the tip and show it, dirt and all, if ya build it, build it well and i will love it no matter what it is
it didnt say " dont bring them" pete porker referred to it as a pre 90,s show, so the question was asked
thanks for the kind words chris
Respect ..... spelt with a capital B.M.X !!!!

Hey Lewis, how's the snow going ? !!
Hi guys. Remember the copy Torker frame I have? Well I gave it to the powdercoaters and said make it look cool. Well this is the end result. The photos don't show the colour very well. It's Candy apple over chrome powder. It looks killer in the daylight. Looks like a trickstar colour if you get me.
Gonna use chrome and polished parts for my son to do his tricks on. Cost? 2 hours work on his car.

Used you to be an awesome racing frame in the early 80's, not a fitting heir apparent.

Sad isn't it?
Then theres that one also. I'm not a big fan of new school stuff. I tend to remember the Quicksilvers as the 80's version.

Hi All,
Anyone need "CW Pro Handlebars" $50Aud....
quick sale, email/PM me.....
They had been rechromed by previous owner, but i'd say they need chroming again for show condition.
(or a damn good polish)
These are the real knurled ones, not the repco copies.

While I'm here,
This photo was supplied by mattblack (rohan) he is the no 10 in the front row. This is our team from 80-82 I think. The poster is on the wall still at Champion cycles at Penrith. Unfortunately I was cut out of this pic. Top right is my shoulder.
This was taken at the grand nationals at Liverpool.
Great times with my buddies.
Enjoy!

Check the shot I grabbed off bmx bandits. I was playing with the dvd program on here and I managed this.
Wow Glen, you havent changed a bit!
haha, I still have the gear i had on!
Cool pic of the Champion crew Glenn, I would be sending someone round to get the full thing on a pic!
HI All, I found the full pic Glenn and it was dated on the back 20/11/81 (that's 11/20/81 if your not aussie)
I will scan tomorrow and then you can see your mug.
As you know Glenn I wasn't far behind in that great movie.

I dunno Glenn , that could be anyone in a Jaffa coloured helmet !! Don't know if we can believe you with just that one pic !!!!
hahaha Rohan and Dean can vouch for me. I'll take a pic of my helmet and jersey! It's my only claim to fame. Don't take that away from me! lol
Yes I can vouch for you but how much time did you spend watching that movie
My kids play it all the time. I was looking for the credits to find out who sung the song at the end when they were riding at Hickeys lane. I then started playing with the dvd program, seeing what it could do.
so.....
