I haven't found anything in a looooong time, so this was a cool find. Webco Team Replica. I know if anyone would appreciate it, you guys will! 1978?

I thought these pics were gone forever, then a box from my mom shows up in the mail yesterday. I'm thinking this was around 85-86. It was before 48 spoke wheels I know that.

I've always been a big guy and graceful as an ox. 36 hole wheels would bend and mags were too flexy. So I did what any bike shop tech nerd would do..I drilled a hole between every hole on my wheels and made some 72 spoke monsters!

Also check out the low mounted centerpull brake. This was before 990's. I remember I used two aluminum tops from a Greenfeild kickstand sandwiched together as a brake bridge. I drilled a hole in the BB and ran a barrel adjuster there..The front drum brake was mushy, but would lock up like crazy.

I'm pretty sure I know where these wheels are..maybe I need to build this one again. Enjoy!

..I think I like the tools that made the bikes better than the bikes sometimes...History. Hope you guys Enjoy..

We are having a HUGE Halloween party at S&M bikes Saturday the 29TH. This is the only place to be for a 80's BMX themed blow out! And a giant flatland jam! See ya there!
