New BMX any good ?

[boyle_46]

I gave a friend of mine a poweflow backbox that i had no need for and he didnt have the money to pay for it so he gave me his bmx its a huffy M80 corey nastazio signiture model , im not too big into bmx's but i thought if i cleaned it up a bit it would be good to chuck in the boot and bring to the png show in portrush to cruise about on only question is was it worth a powerflow backbox i was origionally giving him for 30 quid ? cheers Nath .

how i got the bike in a sad state lol

im going to clean the silver bits on the crank with wire wool to take off the surface rust and oil the bearings and put a new chain and grips onto it :D

That bikes a GOOD ONE i used to be well in the my bmx riding good swop imo lol

[MK999]

Youtube suggests total nutjob lol also looks like you're at a dirt based bmx, probably circa 7 years old, which I think was back when huffy were still the mutts nuts, but i'm no expert.

[Rickardo]

if he only owed you £30, it's a decent swap. i have a Mongoose Expert (I'm no expert though). it doesn't look like a 1 piece crank, it will catch on ramp's if you use it. use it and smash it to piece's, you'll enjoy it... :thumb:

[boyle_46]

not too sure what you mean one piece crank lol il take a pikky of it for you , i just thought it will do to throw in the boot to move about on during cruises and shows , il bring it up to portrush with me and fart about on it there lol thanks for the info lads .

[scott.parker]

As in the pedal crank, being ONE solid piece, so it's not bolted on from either side etc.

bmx's ftw! I used to love them - always remember the urban myths about the plastic spoked wheels that if they warped you could stick them in a freezer and they'd straighten out!

[Tommy_nova]

bmxalex, id rather have a burner over your "bmx" anyday, and before you spout balls, i did freestyle for 12 years.....

[scott.parker]

The burners might not be amazing and expensive, but what els was my old's going to buy me when i was 5! lol

I had one of them in white with spoke wheels and blue tires, then when i was 10 i bought a black and white one of a mate, and at 13 i bought a gold covered chrome framed one for £10 from a car boot!

Good times..
