1985 Aero Reflex

1985 Aero Reflex

Unique paint job - All NOS parts - Built to ride! 

My first BMX since the 80's.  Spent 18 months getting it how I wanted it - and nearly £600!  Perfect to ride with my little boy Dominic (see his little BMX here - http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/ammaco/25003).  I've endeavoured to keep the components from the 80's era or thereabouts but tried not to get hung up about it.  Some of the bits were bought from people on this site so thanks to hboost, subwax, crazy88 and everyone who shipped to the UK for me.  Please leave comments smile  Thanks Chris.

Re: 1985 Aero Reflex

Thanks for the comment! The paintwork was done by my friend who sprays cars for a living - the Aero logos on the top tube were done by applying NOS stickers, then spraying over the top, carefully removing the stickers when dry, then adding lacquer for the final result.  Came out great!
