My wife got me this for free

Have not done any research, any ideas on what it is?
With those rims, will it need solid tires?

Different pic

yeah that would be a solid tire bike but Im sure it would be easier to just put a set of modern rims on it if you was looking to make it into a rider

Pixie, kind of a starter bike. Different years had solid or pnuematic tires. I have a red one.

Cool find!
Thats the perfect frame to go oldschool 80's bmx survivor style. Layback seatpost , mags , lose the fenders and chainguard and bars , keep the original paint, etc....
just my opinion :mrgreen:

NICE find, price is right, too


I have ared one with the regular S7 pheumatic tires, so easy to swap those wheels on, I actually have regular 1.75 sized rims on mine now, will see if I have a pic.

I think the BMX idea is neat, not sure I ever saw a BMX'd Pixie before.

Not really a bmx guy, but pic's might change my mind.
