So I just bought one of these over the weekend, reliving the childhood I suppose and because it is awesome.







Anyways, does anyone know where I can buy some Skinwall tyres from in the UK? I found some from Porkchop BMX in the states but £30 postage, and does anyone have any idea how I can take the buckles out of my mags without a chest freezer, my mum gave our chest freezer away.

Now I just have to get my mate to make me a new sticker for the on board computer with laser system, gonna be awesome, will also post some pics of the clean up and mini resto it will have, though it is nice to find a boys bike in such good condition.

There's a thought.

Now discs are widespread (on MTBs at least), I wonder whether mag wheels are ripe for a comeback...
