Was going to put this on the Muscle bike forums but having issues with the site..

As found,untouched(I hosed the dirt cobwebs off thats all)..missing 20" steel front wheel(common front wheel),but has cool blue OGK BMX grips on it!
No bends or cracks found..Story had it the person who owned this,their dad took the front wheel off so they couldnt ride it because it was a dangerous bike..so goes the story..I can see the danger issue!
1 year only,Ive only found 1 other in house paint,this one is all original except upgraded grips..Someone found a catalog picture(I couldnt find it anywhere! see below)

nice bike!!!! are these the ones that had issues with the steer tube brackets breaking? or is it another danger I am missing because to me it looks fun

Good start for someone .

I was told it was because the angles made the bike very easy to flip it over backwards..
