Great bike! Everything really seems to go together...BTW, the Nexus 4-speed hub is discontinued (according to Sheldon Brown), so you've truly got a rare bird here!

Put this one together over the weekend, with a 1940's skiptooth frame and a bunch of "BMX" parts I had laying around

I like the bmx look tuga.
I put this together last spring, not really a Klunker or a bomber for that matter, a little of both and none of each I suppose. A more modern early bmx frame and late 70's components. seat post, clamp and grips are modern repros, tires are Kenda K-80s. Tank and plate were done by IMGX Graphix. I've done a couple of 20+ mile rides on this bike since I built it and it rides great.

1978 Laguna 26" bmx frame and fork.
"Cherry Bomber", Built for Cherry Hill BMX in Coeur d'Alene Idaho.

Me, gettin' a little air under the tires at the bmx track.

These pictures were taken back in 1995. My friend and I built up 2 old Schwinn frames with "modern" components, like the Girvin flexstem and bullseye cranks.

We called them the "Retro Rockets" They were great bikes to ride, especially when other "serious" mountain bikers saw what they were. 8)
