its ok overall didn't get a chance to ride it it was in the backyard and most of the og parts got snatched up
i'm going to repaint it opposite of factory (red where the chome is now and chrome where the red is now ) because the chrome is too far gone but should look good none the less

I had that bike as a kid. It was sold in Toys R Us for $130. It was a top of the line for the department store bikes. The really only one you could get with 48's spoke wheels. It had a no name rotor too.

I recently had a friend find this bike and he sold it to me for $75, I think...can't remember.

Mine is in good shape. I am going to restore it too. I always had the down tube pictured in my "head"....since I remember it. I always wanted to have it made, since mine is missing. I was going to describe the sticker as being like the GT Pro Freestyle Tour sticker from 1987.

I've already had the bars re-chromed, and the sprocket powder solid white, as it was. I got brand new grips that are original too.

Here are some photos. I got it without the red mags - which are not original anyway.

Oh, and by the way......the placement of the "red" is correct on mine. So, use mine as a model...

nice yours is in good shape what year is it?, mine must be a later model it had a white gyro on it when i got it

RL-20II Guy · 2009-11-03 7:07pm

It was only made one year. Department store bike models are not like pro-bikes. They don't normally make additional years. If they do, it is still the same model look. Your Gyro is not original to the bike. Your wheels are not original too. The bars are correct though.

The year I bought mine as a kid, was 1988/1989.

ok i still have some of the og parts the steel 48 spoke rims are on a different bike, it and sprocket did yours have the same stickers http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=105506

RL-20II Guy · 2009-11-03 7:15pm

Yes, the same decals.

I remember the rims actually being a chrome finish, unlike the other department store bikes at the time.

Do you want to sell the wheels?

RedFox · 2009-11-03 7:27pm
