It's good to see one of these on the channel, they're super underrated and not crazy expensive for someone wanting to build an old school bmx👍I own a 91 Schwinn Predator Wire myself
I have a pinkesh one myself probably one of my favorite bikes ever made . I was lucky an a old friend bit older than me had it up in the bar for years so a little cleaning brought it back to life 😁.
My step brother had a white one !! his dad owned a bike shop in Manhattan loved it !! Predaror label was in Red white mag wheels dam that bike rode smooth but his lime green Laser was nice also ! miss him badly
I still have mine from 1988, even have the original manual that came with it. Mine is the black chrome with the hot pink accessories with black mag wheels.
I have an 88 in amazing condition. Someone replaced the 48s with gt mags. It’s missing the spinner pegs and decals. Been on the hunt for some with no luck. Great build 👍 thanks harvester.
Nice! Love the predators. I still have my 87 freeform ex in red and white all original except for the tires and my 91 mag that is all white with black mags.
Now that's official Awesome Build. They are so cool shwinn but out cool Bmxs, still have mine now you have to build up the Free Form Ex, an the ex . Great one
Very nice build. I still have my Predator YO bike . Mine is black chrome and pink. I have almost restored it completely but I am looking for the front caliper in pink.
My parents saved up for my birthday and Christmas to be able to give me one big gift. They gave me a pearl light blue Schwinn Predator Freeform EX 1986 with the white skyway mags, cobra grips. Someone stole it the very next week. I was a CRUSHED 11 year old girl. Broke into my basement garage and stole it. Now I have a 2008 Intense Pro XL in Zebra paint with all SINZ components. I know the mini of my Zebra bike is very rare and frame without forks is bringing 1,500 bucks on ebay and I only seen 1. I have never seen a pro xl for sale. I also have a Mosh Method 2 Jr from 2002 and would trade both of them without hesitation for restored 86' Schwiin Predator just like my old one.

I always love the part when the rims are on the floor and you drop the tires and presto they're mounted it never gets old.
Brings me back memories from the 80s .my child hood
thanks!

that's a rare bird and really reflects the style of bikes in the 80s super dope freestyle

Same here as well I have mine and the original manual since 88 . I have been working on mine. I am going to make it a wall hanger.
YO that bike is crazy YO! Sweet!
I had this bike. What a great memory man. I wish i still had it.
"check out these forkstanders in the back" lol

Oh yeah I also used to have an 85 or 86 Concord freestyle bmx in purple. Wish I never got rid of that bike cause of how hard they are to find today.
Just bought an 88 🎉 great vid! Very good 😊
Nice! Love the predators. I still have my 87 freeform ex in red and white all original except for the tires and my 91 mag that is all white with black mags.
Looks Awesome... but quick ProTip, flip the masterlink around backwards so that the plain OVAL side is on the inside... provides a much cleaner look.

This is definitely a bug you can catch like a cold. 44 and back into bmx in every aspect
From jos angels got a swinn pro cycle at Pomona swap meet this year I built came out 😷
someone please send this guy the second generation ACS Rotor w/metal ball bearing sleeve . . .
Nice bike, But why not clean up the parts before building it?
I had the same bike a few years back , and still have a few parts like yo hubs ,sprocket and a set of bars (they are in primer) if you are interested.
Have you got white spinner pegs and a 88 decal kit?
@@nessie42786 I wish
Do you have a BMX Museum account ?
@@nashknetter4865 I am in the group.
On Facebook.
Hey man, how do you get the brake line through the fork? Having trouble running them on my 86 predators. Any tips or tricks. Thank you
Take the front brake caliper off then install the cable . I am a year late 😂
Where can I get one of these....my hot pink one got stolen....man that's memories

Can you run the brakes in slo-mo in a video. Maybe walk people through it with that rotor system and all. Thanks
that's Araya rim from japan
but is it crazy
The back framestanders barely have any room
I heard Robert Peterson was a dick during that time, especially towards team members
Tell us more stories
I hated those acs rotors. Gyros forever!
