yep, liking all the repop stuffs, and making it a little different to differentiate, and sometimes even improving upon the product! thanks for the history lesson!
Excellent video ! Appreciate the info , you're right there's been a couple things including the grips I just couldnt justify yet. Hasn't taken the fun out of building, collecting, and even riding a little. Rubber quality is hard too if not seen in person like with the era correct tires.
Nah I’m done with that. The frame is restored and many of the parts are as well so putting NOS 1987 grips on it is like lipstick on a pig. These Porkchop grips are perfectly fine. For this bike that is….muhahahahahaha
Porkchop has White, Black and Maui Blue available in the new single flange rounds. He has more colors on the way. He also has a ton of new neon colors for the A’me Tri’s. Check out Porkchop BMX for the latest updates. www.porkchopbmx.com/new-products/
@@atrainsthanks! yeah Ive been on them all no luck yet lol, I met a guy who makes really good gt reproduction parts and he make forks also but he's backed up right now, I might just wait on him
@CertifiedTray310 I just sold a mint ‘88 GT Performer fork on the BMXMUSEUM a few weeks ago. Stamped ‘88 Akisu. Anyway I know who is you are taking about, RP and he does high quality work. You won’t be disappointed.
@@justinnoga947 that’s very interesting 🤔 because according to Cindy at A’me and Justin at PC there are the same. Just packaged differently. I’ve had the “motor cross” grips and the PC versions and I didn’t notice any difference. Hmmmm this is interesting. Wonder if they had a few bad batches of material?
$15 is staggeringly inexpensive. That is a gift to the community. Made in USA and nice quality grips.

You know I love using your bike in my videos. It’s the best
Rocking! Ordered some last week from Porkchop for my 87 build.
This was two weeks ago but am I seeing the colors now or is that a different grip? I’m confused

Do you know anyone who has a 87 gt performer fork for sale? Trying to build up a frame I have . If not do you know of any forks I could use for now?
Try the BMXMUSEUM, FB groups and Evilbay.

The new pork chop are better. The motor cross version are thinner flimsy stickier. Much better from porkchop
