Re: My Holy Grail of Holy Grails - DB HLT
Wow! That is my race Grail for sure! Those bikes were the Ferrari's of BMX racers IMO. I rode my uncles HLT and was sold on them from that day on!
I believe Jesus would have rode a GT Performer....carpenters can't afford Hutch.
While urinating, Chuck Norris is easily capable of welding titanium.
Driving a fast Honda is like coming out of the closet....sure it surprises you at first, but in the end you`re still gay.

Re: My Holy Grail of Holy Grails - DB HLT
That is one of a handfull of bikes that I dreamed of when I was a kid. I remember looking at the bmxa magazine ad over and over. I am 43 years old and recently restored one that was thrashed as far as the og finish. I found a og crankset at a show and then had the frame set and various pieces refinished by Chip at c4. His finish was EXACTLY the same appearance as the og crankset. He is the turbo master for sure. I will be contributing pics of the bike soon

Remember....if everyone came to a bike show without a bike, it would just be a bunch of dudes standing around in a park...and that's just creepy! If you've got one, bring one. -Me
