re: What kind of bmx bike did you have as a kid

GT Pro Freestyle Tour Team Model (basically a tricked out Pro Performer). ACS wheels and hubs. Dyno bars and seat post. Odyssey gyro. GT tires, grips, and seat. I used Skyway Mags from time to time. I liked the mags better when riding vert. Dia Compe front brakes and Odyssey rear brakes.

Was on a freestyle team back in the mid to late 80’s and up to about ‘91. Every weekend was spent doing shows and riding. Every single afternoon was spent practicing. Everything revolved around freestyle for about 8 years. Riding was Life. I miss it so much.

My hero’s back then were Hoffman, Eddie Fiola, Josh White, Mile Dominguez, Martin Aparijo, Dennis McCoy,...
