This is my race bike from the mid 80s as it exists today. For years I thought this was a 1985 Free Agent Expert but after doing some research I’ve discovered that with its 19.5” top tube it’s actually a Pro model. I always wanted to go Pro when I was racing, I just never figured my bike would do it without me. :D
I just got a set of Sunday 24umph XL bars, part of Sunday’s Plus-4 line of cruiser parts designed to bring a more 20” feel to 24” bikes. They’re 28” by 7.75” and are made of awesome. If you ride a modern 24”, you should be running these bars.
This is my (new) bike. There are many like it, but this one is MINE.
I needed a bike for off-track BMX radness, so I sold my Lemond CX bike and got this. It’s… awesome. Way easier to lift and flip around than my GHP and look at the crazy new school gearing!
My 15 minutes of fame: one day back in August of ‘84, me and a buddy were down at the Parks track in Fullerton for some BMX shenanegins. A few minutes later the BMXA van pulled up to test a new CW bike… Pete Loncarevich himself was the tester. On page 50 in the picture, I’m the 2nd guy from the right; on page 51, I’m the first guy on the left. Blue shirt, yellow pads and grips. Whee!
