My second build. This one is built from NOS parts that are era correct but not necessarily factory. I am looking for a nice blue Elina seat if anyone has one ..

 | OldSchoolMags.com Have you ever wished that you could go back in time to the late 70's and early 80's when you could walk into a newsagency and see the latest issues of BMX Action, BMX Plus, Super BMX and Freestylin' in the racks as crisp and clean as the day they were printed? If you said yes to any of these questions, this is the site for you .. |
 | BMX Works This site has everything you will ever need to restore an old school bmx from loose parts - nuts, bolts and bearings - through to complete brake sets, cranks sets and finishing parts, such as pad sets and decals. |

 | Vintage Mongoose Anyone who is interested in Mongooses (Mongeese?) has probably already found this site. When I was restoring my Motomag, I found this site invaluable for information and reproductions decals and grips. Warren, who is behind this site, is a local who is passionate - no obsessive - about the Mongoose brand and it shows. |
Below are some of my other completed bikes. I am currently working on a couple of local Australian bikes and I will publish pictures of these when they are complete.
If you have a bike that you don't want and you are in Australia, contact me as I may be interested in restoring it!
22 Apr 2016 Malvern Star and Speedwell pad collection
Thanks to Ben Leech for some additional pads for the collection. I had previously sold a yellow CrMo set thinking I didn't need to have a spare set sitting around the house. But regrets .. and now I own a set again.
14 Apr 2016 Bike of the Week Winner!
Thanks to everyone who voted for my SuperMax in the Bike of the Week poll on the Facebook site. I was really surprised to pip Tony's Supergoose as it is a magnificently restored bike.
30 Mar 2016 Dia Compe Pack Rack
I found these on eBay and thought they looked cool - but what would you do with a pack rack that is this small? Its a great idea but as its all supported by a single centre bolt, your load would want to be both small and light.

Forever Bicycles disconnects the bicycles from their everyday function – reconfiguring them as an immense labyrinth-like network. The multi-tiered installation also achieves an architectural presence, much like a traditional arch or gateway to the exhibition..
