2008 Eastern Ace of Spades
Gone, but not forgotten.
Frame appears to be between 2007-2009, so I listed as 2008.
I love new-school tech, but I love old-school style. I built this as a compromise between them. I had a hard time trying to find an all neon-yellow or all purple new-school frame. Finding a complete set of parts/accessories in either color was also difficult. I settled for mixing the two on a black frame. A very big thanks to all the BMX Museum members who helped by selling me parts for this build!
**UPDATE**
I recently parted this out & the frame & cranks were a gift to my niece. I put a LOT of miles on this bike--lots of good memories. I'll miss it, but it's time to move on. I don't really have room for more than 2 bikes, and being a lifelong DTT fanboy, this one goes to make way for my new Torker Kickback. Maybe someday the parts will live on in a new build. :)
