1976 Royce Union Shocker
BMX bikes were meant to be ridden, even if that riding is only in your mind as you admire your latest build

Re: 1976 Royce Union Shocker
my first bmx was a royce union, and I seem to recall some shock system, but details are hazy. what I do recall is I broke a crankshaft (forgot my terms), and we had to special order a new one b/c it was some odd british size.

Nice ![]()
When you compute the length of time between the "EVENT" and "THE NOSTALGIA FOR THE EVENT", the span seems to be about a year less in every cycle.
Eventually the nostalgia cycles will be so close together that people will not be able to take a step without being nostalgic for the one they just took.
At that point, everything stops. DEATH BY NOSTALGIA. Frank Zappa
