1978 CYC Stormer

1978 CYC Stormer

I picked this CYC STORMER up from a garage sale for 25 bucks from a guy that said it came with the house he bought in 1983. This is the first all original CYC I've ever seen. All the parts look original including the stamped Araya chrome wheels, Tange forks made for CYC, bars, the Carlisle tires are even original.This bike is in amazing condition for being over 30 years old. The stickers are all there also, no tears. Nice piece of 70's BMX history here.

Wow. Super cool survivor. I dig it!

A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine.
Wanted: LRV/Matthews girder forks. And someone simple enough to sell them to me for less than a used honda.

Re: 1978 CYC Stormer

No, they are steel Araya that are stamped ARAYA with JAPAN under Araya. The spoke holes are beveled and have fat spokes.                                         
                                  ARAYA
