    The sources you mentioned are spot on . Another great place is Planet BMX. I find their selection of products is awesome and have built several old and mid school BMX bikes. Prices can be a bit steep but what isn't. That goes for any supplier these days though.

    Like the tips, I'm looking to restore my 85 Robinson pro to how I had it back in the day with period correct parts.
    I've looked but just can't find a 1986 or 87 Robinson 24 cruiser frame and fork at a reasonable price point(found an 87 but the guy wanted like $12000.00 for it).

    Good looking out. I want an old school rotor or gyro like the one I had on my pro performer!

    • @AmazingChinaToday
      @AmazingChinaToday 2 года назад +1

      The Rotor performed poorly, too much friction on the stem. The Gyro is still made today, same as the original, because it performs flawlessly. There are also newer aluminum gyros, with sealed precision bearings. Amazon has them all.

    Youll make friends and do deal after deal after deal.
    None of this reproduction shite.
    Id say after 10 yrs of doing this across the boards locally and internationaly,
    Ive found 90% of o/s bmxers avoid ebay and tbh, if it wasnt for newschoolers id say the shops/ online outlets would sink.
    After countless builds, in the decade ive been collecting, ive probably used bmx specific shops 30, maybe 40 times.
    Just my twopeneth.
