    BMX bikes.Lets see'em!!!

    For real, please don't strip that bike. It looks like the paint is still in pretty decent shape for a survivor. If you really, 100% want a chrome bike, sell the Redline and use the cash to get one.

    92/93 S&M Challenger

    I'll take that as a compliment for sure. 8) Those Dirt Bike decals are so cool. They just reissued the lowrider style ones, hopefully those will be next (after the Challenger ones I need!) They'd look great on one of the newer 24" DB frames.

    92/93 S&M Challenger

    This is my 1st gen S&M Challenger. I picked up the frame and fork from another forum, and used parts from here and there to build the race bike I would've built in the early/mid 90s if I could've afforded it. It's not quite era correct, but it's close enough for me, all the parts are late 80s...

    BMX bikes.Lets see'em!!!

    Thanks! I loved the look of this thing when it had the Perfect 10s on it, but those things are huge! I could never get used to riding them, they made the bike handle like a boat. I'm gonna use them on an Eastern Reaper that's a little too small for me, see if they make it a little roomier for...

    BMX bikes.Lets see'em!!!

    Hey! I haven't posted on here for quite a while, but I still lurk pretty regularly! I moved into an apartment and had to put most of my bikes in storage, so I haven't had much to post in the way of rat rods. I have a few bikes in my apartment still, mainly BMX stuff since it's what I ride...

    BMX bikes.Lets see'em!!!

    Figured I'd throw up a few pics of my Liquor since I've changed out a couple parts in the last year or 2. Biggest differences since the old photos I had up here are that now it's got S&M Perfect 10 bars, a Primo 330mm post, an FBM slim pivotal seat, Odyssey Jim Cielencki magnesium pedals and...

    Haha! I'm from upstate NY originally, so I know all about rust damage...

    Show us them cars!

    Thanks! I gotta say, yours is one of the nicest I've seen. My bumpside is staying like it is for now. I'd consider painting it, but it has a shotgun hole in the passenger door that I don't want to mess with, because I think it adds too much to the truck. The previous owner already rebuilt...

    I picked up this old truck last week. So far it's a blast.

    My new DJ bike!

    Which specialized do you have? I was looking at the P2, but I'm not crazy about aluminum frames. I know they make a chromoly one, but I ended up finding the Eastern with Argyle 318s for a few hundred less than the LBS was selling the P2 with DJ3s. I did like the geometry of the Specialized...

    My new DJ bike!

    I've had a few 24s, but I could never get into riding them. It's weird, I'm way more comfortable on a 20 than I ever was on a 24. I was a little nervous buying the Eastern because of that, but already I can tell, this is going to be my main ride for quite a while. They nailed the geometry so...

    That last picture does a pretty good job... That's about as mirror as mirror polish can get! Looks great!

    My new DJ bike!

    CCR, not a stupid question at all, I didn't even know you could get lhd MTB hubs until I saw this one, which was a big part of why I got the bike. I can't imagine it having much of a market, but I love how much easier it'll be to adapt my riding to a bigger bike. It looks like a lot of what's...

    My new DJ bike!

    CCR, it's for park riding. I grind on the right when I'm riding, and my Liquor OG is LHD, so I'm used to that kind of setup. The Night Train is pretty much a giant 20" bike, and it's set up for use as a DJ, street, or park bike, just like a lot of 20"s. I actually have a peg on the right side...
