1986 Jetter Brake Dancer

My first freestyle bike.

Ill never forget the day my dad brought this bike home. I think i might have been 7 or 8 years old. It was lime green with bright white Skyway mags with green snakebelly style tires. A kids dream. Years later i found out that it was a cheaply made bicycle but nonetheless it was pretty rad back in its day. I rode the wheels off of the bike. Some where down the line i decided to paint her blue and changed the seat to a blue GT seat and chrome handlebars, etc. Some how i misplaced the original handlebars and crank and just about all the rest of the original pieces, which basically left me with the frame, akisu forks and back wheel. Recently i caught the bmx passion again and decided to rebuild it. Its painted bright white with an older Mongoose front fork, eventually ill put the stock fork back on it, black ACS Z mags with red nobbie tires with old school pegs, Superstar grips, Haro crank, Dominator seat with layback seat post and a GT seat post clamp. Not sure on brand of the bars, brakes or neck. It sits cozy in the basement enjoying its retirement.  smile
*5-9-13 Recently updated the bars to the original double loop style, new AME grips, new red Dominator seat and new red pedals. This thing looks awesome now. Make sure to check out the before and after pictures!
