Well cash problems meant I could no way afford the Subrosa I was coverting for months, so in the end I ran out of patience and went cheapo on it and bought a used bike from some bloke selling round my area.

Never heard of the make before (BMX Boss?), but I know it's only got a hi-tensile steel from not chromo.

The brakes were shot to sh*t so I've removed them for now, I might get a back one put on in the near future though, having no brakes is somewhat terrifying (bit I must admit, it looks cool :) ) and I'm not crazy about the saddle either, looks like it was ripped from a mountain bike to me!? Thinking of removing the decals as well.

It rides really nicely though, and it's soooooooooo good to be back riding again!

All in all, a reckon I got a good deal for £20 :)

I dunno exactly what it weighs, I'd guess at around 12-14kg, but considering I bench 160kg's it doesn't matter much lol :)

I'm getting a brake tonight and thinking of getting rid of the stickers too.... I do enjoy plain frames.......
