1986 Hutch Trick Star

Original Finish

EDIT — SOLD
I've always wanted a Baby Blue Hutch Trick Star. So I collected parts for this bike over about 2 years and built this bike just before the Summer Slam 2009 party / show in August.... and I just finally got down to business and shot some pics of it before the cold weather sets in. But I was just to darn excited to document the 82 GJS I was building at the same time as this bike. The GJS was my custom/restoration, and this Trick Star was to be my Survivor build with a more realist approach. One of the better Japanese models. The standing platform is nice and parallel with the top tube, unlike some of the other overseas Trick Star models.  A quick look, and you can tell this one was engineered right!
This one came out great. I really wanted to do justice to this particular Trick Star given that the Frame and fork still have the original paint and stickers... in incredibly preserved condition. The bars do as well. So I wanted to maintain that no re-finished parts go on this bike. I knew I wanted to go with black tires and only some subtle color accents to compliment the subdued Hutch baby blue paint.  The Peregrine HP tires have a similar pattern to hutch tires, and were always a favorite of mine to ride back in the day. I didn't want it to have that typical "loud" freestyle look. So I wanted to use parts and colors that showed respect to that. This bike not only looks awesome. it rides great and is super dialed.
