I SHOULD specify that the main reason the nail polish was a GEL style nail polish, I tried a few different things but a gel style polish in black no.1 was the best option I had available to me. AGAIN- It’s not perfect but neither is the rest of my bike…I’m just trying to maintain a true, well used survivor to the best of my abilities in a relatively tasteful manner, I’m well aware that I’m not going to make everyone happy… This is MY bike I intended to keep as my semi vintage bmx, and period correct piece of my prime teenage years. We all have different things that bring us that nostalgia we all chase, this is MY nostalgia. Thanks to everyone who appreciates this, your love makes it worthwhile
I started riding s&m around 98, but I always rode slapped together old ass bikes. My bike was always the friends parts bin special, rocking hand me down components. I WISHED I could have owned something this decent in 97, my rides were janky-ish
Thank you, I’ve always appreciated uncommon paint schemes, there wasn’t many cool ones in the late 90’s. I appreciate it more now than I ever did before.
@@user-un9be3ul3z not THIS bike. 94 was a non coin roll double kink downtube, 95 had the single downtube kink with the same chain and seat stays were identical to the 94. This was the last kink style platform frame, 98 was a swoop style tube frame. The green spatter was ONLY available in 97, and the double bend seat stays was strictly 96 and 97
@403patriot3 in 93-94 i had a Robinson SST. Like 400.00 in 90's money. I left it on my front porch and someone stole it. Man, i still hate myself for that to this day. One of the only big ticket items i really ever had. Edit: this memory totally triggered me, lol
Lovely bike. Chains upside down though.

Before gt sold out
I think that happened in 95, only the team models and the slammer were American made after that.
I do believe mine was a Taiwan model, 95% certain
