Dizzle Problems
Finally riding a big boys bike
Kinda tough to title... however, I’m looking for pictures of modified BMX cruisers. In the late 70s- early 80s, before mountain bikes were readily available folks were taking their BMX cruisers and having modifications done, canti brake mounts, derailleur hangers, cable guides, etc.
Kind of a post ‘Klunker’, pre mtb thing from what I figure was a small window, ‘79-‘83 or so.
What I’m NOT looking for is prewar/ post war mass produced cruisers. But specifically bmx companies that entered the 26” wheel market in the time period. Cook Bros, Champion, Laguna, S&S, powerlite, Bassett, Gary Littlejohn, MCS, Mongoose, GT, Prodyne, Torker, etc.
And not really just gears slapped on with drum brakes, looking for actual welded on modifications.
Here’s a few to get it rolling-
Cook with added Canti mounts and derailleur hanger. I know at one point Canti mounts were a from factory option (82-83 I think)
Champion with Canti mounts and derailleur hanger ( this awesome rig previously belonged to @Xlobsterman ) -
Another Champion with ‘bash guard’, derailleur hanger, and cable guides added-
Powerlite with Canti mounts and cable guides-
If this is more applicable to the vintage BMX section, I will ask for it to be moved, wasn’t sure where to post it.
