Beautiful build! :shock:

One question...isn't it annoying to ride with your wrists at that angle?

 

[Robertk]

Thanks Steve!
I don't know why I like the position of my bars like that - it just feels right to me

That bike is so nice, I don't know where to start. I mean, DANG DUDE!

Cheers,
Dr. T

Now I am normally not a big fan of white paint on a frame but damn that is freakin gorgeous what a bike dude.

 

[Robertk]

Thanks all!
My Ratrod shout outs for this build -

RCain actaully gave me the LaGuna Decals! Thanks Man!

Axsepul created and produced the custom headbadge - nice work!

Got the Rims from Floyd.

Porkchop sold me the seatpost

Sweet bike! Is it coaster brake? Can I ride it?

Sharp looking bike. I like that you didnt' add rim brakes and the unsightly cables.

 

[blackdiamond]

i love this bike. it gives me ideas for my worksman.... :roll:

 

[Robertk]

yeah - a Worksman with the BMX cruiser treatment would be sweet!

Robert,
I really love your Laguna. It is so Clean and Fresh looking. The bright white paint, nice bright red bars and the decals look amazing. i can't stop looking at the Araya gold rims with No Brake Marks on the sides. I hope my cruiser turns up as good......Ron

 

[caffeine7]

[Robertk]

Nice!!! Wonder why more 26 inch quality BMX bikes were not built. With aging populace I would think 30 to early 40 year old men would be a good market to appeal to.

Probably b/c at some point in the early 80s ('84? I'm not sure of the exact year...), the Cruiser Class of BMX switched from 26" to 24"....

Love it! I just got back from a beach cruise on my '81 Laguna.
