Lix BMX’s Healing Freestyler update

well kiwi expat Lixy had stepped it up a notch with an awesome website to document her BMX builds.

check it out here: http://lixbmx.com/

Her Healing Freestyler Project started a while ago and I was able to help with a freestyler frame and forks I had in my collection.
Im super proud to be a part of this build. All of the credit goes to Lix in reality but I feel like Ive helped save an awesome part of kiwi pop culture. Finally my bike hording has a reason!

This is what the frame had become. As much as I loved the rat kiwi lowrider I had always planned on a resto:

Restored to this:

new decals made up out of scrap at work. gold for welly

cleaned 30+ years of grease and grime off the frame, fork and cranks. then mocked up with a few nice bits from my parts collection
