    AMF Renegade

    I took it apart and gave everything an OA bath. I laced a new rear rim on the original hub and threw a 16" front rim on it for kicks. I decided to leave the patina on the frame and clear coated it. It rides really nice.

    AMF Renegade

    Wow, I looked for a couple of hours the other night on the web and I could not find one like it, but I knew it was original from the was it was assembled. Thanks for finding it.

    AMF Renegade

    A friend of mine gave me this the other day, it was 15 feet in the air when the tree was alive. The tree was cut down and he saved the bike. Has anyone ever seen an AMF like this with the bars going all the way down to the fork?

    Old School BMX Tuf Neck Style Sprocket Build:

    I got into the old school BMX bikes a couple of years ago with the acquisition of a survivor Redline 500A with all the original parts. I next found a GT Interceptor at a pawn shop and started messing with that. I am now building a Redline MXII and a Californian Mongoose. I noticed that my wallet...

    1st Generation Graphite Skyway Mag Wheel

    This has been sitting in a bike shop since the early 80's. I finally was in the right place and right time today, as the bike shop owner sold it to me. I also bought another mag which I am assuming is an ACS Z mag.

    Ross Piranha- NOS?

    I did some trading with a buddy to get this Ross Piranha. I believe it is a 1985. It also appears to be NOS, as there are no signs of it ever being assembled. It does have the headset cups and bottom bracket cups pressed in, so that may dis-qualify it from being true NOS, but it does not matter...

    1984 BMX Products: Blue Max

    This is an '84 Blue Max that I bought from the original owner. His dad bought it for him for Christmas at the Ft. Bliss Army base in El Paso, Tx. I bought it off Craigslist earlier this year. It is a little different than most Blue Max's I have seen, as it has the following parts: -chrome 36...

    1983 National Sport Wheels BMX

    I found this on Craigslist several months ago. I bought it along with a Diamondback. I liked the fact that it had tear drop shaped tubing and it was a bike that I had never heard of before. I had recently cleaned up a really nice Stu Thomson Huffy, and I kind of had a soft spot for the...

    Unknown Cantilever 26" Lugged Frame:

    Hello, all. This is my first post, though I have been lurking for a while now. I picked this up on CL yesterday, and I am having trouble with an I.D. The VIN is : 2150637 located under the bottom bracket. There are no markings other than the Komet rear hub. Here are a few pics:
