1978 Powerlite
formerly nos f/f
ok. my dad bought this frame nos from the og owner. it was his first ever bmx bike he bought. scored it for a wopping $100 i just finished building it for my dad. (he paid for frame fork wheels brakes and stem, and it just threw on some leftover parts). it rides nicely. my dad is 50 so he may do a little bit of racing with me, but it's more so he has something to ride around on at my races. we will eventually replace the cranks, pedals, bars, chain, cable housing, tires, and maybe re-ano the rims.here is the parts breakdownNOS f/fmishmatched headsetfaded red araya rims rear suzue high flanged hubfront shimano low flange hubbars off my schwinn predatormongoose gripsdiacompe mx rear brakediacompe locking leverodysee exaculber crankwell go pedalsmishmatched chainrace inc seat postacs seat clampsr stemmtb tiressugino chainringsugino spider
