Look Ma, No Hands!
I Just picked up this bike in a deal with a guy, I mess with the old stuff and like the 26 inch Balloon bikes as wiingell. but I have some deep roots in BMX as well, As a child in the early mid sixties we were doin our own form of BMX racing on modified bikes.Then in the 80s I volunteered some of my off shift time at the local BMX Club. Well my daughter went along with me,and wanted to start racing,I let her on one condition...she had to race in the boys division cause there just wasnt much competition in the boys, So before the season was over we were racing all over Illinois, and some National events. Well as it turned out she caught the eye of Ade owner of Lil Ades Bike Shop in Pekin IL. She went on that year to be the State Champ in Illinois Boys division. Ive posted a few Pics of a bike I just got,I put air in the tires in it and it was ready to ride...1st thing I did was rode down some steps and away I went. The thing is perfect I have the original pads off after its 1st bath, Its all chromalloy, Race ready, it has some surface rust that is coming off very easy without pitting. Plan is to detail it and go from there I might replace the grips with some NOS and replace the decals that need it. I m thinking of selling it when done to help fund my dream bike. I have all the numbers and spent the whole evening reading CW Racing site . Anybody familiar with this bike?
Thanks
