    Nice build and resto! Story is pretty spot on. Actually at that time (1998-1999) I had recently sold Kore Products and was starting up my current company I still operate (ASV Inventions, 24 yrs. Now! Making motorcycle parts) I appreciate the build and the story!

    great looking bike. i am into mid school bikes and i do flatland videos on mid school bikes. i just restored a haro shredder etc. i got a new haro zippo that was never rode ever. og reflectors on it etc. most my mid school time i rode haro mirra or backtrails etc. but ya i am over 50. i do flatland. street. park. etc. race. but ya i use a mid school bike to do flatland in my videos as i am huge. 6 foot 3 and 260 pounds. so i use a mid school stronger bike for my flatland videos i make etc. as it can handle more as it is so strong etc.

    I had to work on my local Bmx shop owner for like 5 yrs for my black Hoffman ramp room 2gen love handles , and they have the same patina as my black condor

    Great attention to detail, as with all of your builds. Look forward to seeing the next episode. 👍

    Those pedals are mental 🤣. Cool bike man, Quality work. I like a repainted frame aslong as you can tell it's been done well (like yours), rattle can jobs are a big turn off though

    • @mymidschoollife8485

      Yeah they are not as durable as proper 2k paints, nor as durable as powder. Problem is powder has the worst orange peel ever. That is why I use acrylics now. They do scratch if you are not careful, but then so will 2k if you are as clumsy as I haha. It's a good trade off tbh. Far better than using 1k which are as soft as a pensioner's turd.

    What headset did you use ? I have the same frame and the top cup (1 and 1/8 I think ) is loose in the steerer

    • @mymidschoollife8485
      @mymidschoollife8485  Před 6 měsíci +1

      FSA Pig. However, the frame needs shims. The head tube is not standard size, and the shims need to be in there for a headset to fit.
