In 85 I got a chrome Hutch Pro Racer. Everything was Hutch except for the Redline Flight 401s and the Suntour Bear Claw pedals. The Hutch pedals were DANGEROUS. Had graphite Tuffs, an Elina seat with a layback post, a Zeronine plate, and black Comp IIIs with the gumwall. badass bike.
Very cool video. It was rock star status when an older kid pulled up at the jumps with a Quad Angle or a PK Ripper, or better yet a Hutch with 3 pc cranks. Epic times.
my first bike was a stingray...the old ones...my dad had it since he was a kid...we put some cw bars on it and changed the seat and post...done...I destroyed that thing by the time I was 12. I got a schwinn predator(the low end one) for my birthday....51 now and still ride(flatland, some street) but I've had so many bikes over the years...everything from a stu-thompson huffy to a kuwahara magician to a gt pro freestyle tour tema model....to a hoffman(had to get those love handles too) etc...etc... I didn't ever buy any bike from the bash guard era....fuck that..now I'm ridin an Autum bikes frame and a whole skew of after market parts...bmx has turned into skateboarding that way...no one make a good complete bike anymore.
Wow, the design elements were insane back in the day, but we took it all for granted at the time. BMX bikes all look the same today and just typing their names into your browser invites legal scrutiny (Cult, Stolen, Kink et al). Thank you for this technicolor flashback of epic beauty.
Sweet rides, thanx 4 the flashbacks into me teens. Luv the BLK, VDC freestyle, she’s gorgeous n has great jewelry to accentuate her class. I purchased a VDC Pro Pit, frame/fork set with their wicked assed Gorilla layed back seatpost & bars set on a ESP neck with sealed Shimano bearings headset n bottom bracket. Skyway mini tuff wheels with tri-comp tires. All BLK n Crome, half n half mix brake calipers n brake handles down to offset cable colors n brake adjustment nutz. Oakley B1B’s with 3 foam ringz for comfort n a custom Uni-Seat with padded cover. Last to complete all the overlapping bars n welds is a set o Proline Flight Cranks n Hutch Bear 🐻 trapz ta get gnarly on the track n quarter pipe or jammin around town Thanx again
i Would really love to use some of this footage for my channel because I know I will never get to see 99% of these in real life! 10/10 would spend a week just looking
