10th Grade Style. 1987. Home made shorts. Home made shirt. The Summer before I found the sullen comfort of black tee shirts. I cringe a little when I see this. That's why I share. :D:crazy:

Where are your Walkman headphones? Or was Power Of Love blasting on an off-camera boom box?

Power Of Love blasting on an off-camera boom box?

It was probably either Agent Orange or Killing Joke. Or, ummmm...depeche mode...

I have the same bike and color, except I had white Peregrine mags before some a$$hole ripped it off and sold most of the parts. The moron still rode my bike around town and it took about a week til we caught him. He tried to deny stealing it and was borrowing it from a friend :eyeroll: but the bike wasn't an average bike at the time. I got it back with the orginal handlebars, stem, fork and crankset. Sweet pic Scott. Shad...why did you have pink mags? :confused:I wish I could find those mags somewhere. I'd buy 'em in a second.:etard:

You can buy VCD (read fake DVD) of it on Ebay. Pretty much pirated. Then again I don't think they have any plans to ever release this on DVD.

I've got a rear ACS Z-Mag with a bit of a wobble if ya want it. Its a newer style one though without the offset spokes.

At the time, neon pink was in. I had the blue frame and fork and neon pink mags and stem. Then a couple of months later, Ron Wilkerson (Haro rider at the time) had the same color setup and everyone accused me of copying him.....:mad:

No more talk of RAD. I have a lot of fuel to fight it with.....

Thanx Scott, but I would only buy Peregrines because that's what it came with. I don't ride it anymore and wouldn't. I would just like to put it back to what it used to be and hang it for show. I've looked on ebay before but got bored with it after about 50 out of a million pages on bike parts.:etard:

I've got some lavender Peregrines on a Sting right now, and I may be selling them. Undecided.

I've got an '87 Sport project that may or may not ever be completed. Luckily I haven't found any old freestyle pics of myself. :D

I've also got RAD in a divx format somewhere.

This first is the bike I had (spokes, no mags). The second is a bike I always wanted. Unfortunately, at 5'15.5" neither will ever be rideable by moi.

My parent's driveway.

That kid from Elk Mound was Mark Hilson, who went on to do Bacovision with Chris Rye and Chad DeGroot. Now he owns a ramp park near Appleton called 'Undercover'.

No doubt, I had the same Schwinn Predator CroMo Mag. Mine came with mag wheels but they cracked and I replaced them with graphite Z-rims with Bullseye hubs, they were trick. Cool bike

I'm waiting for Skyway to start putting disc brake mounts on Tuffs. Caliper brakes would never work very well on them.

It doesn't sound too good.

I meant to say that when I go to the bikerfox website, he has some unique stuff on there that I have to browse. Each link creates a new window...

So I think what y'all are trying to say is that [defective] is the next biker fox?

What this thread needs is more '87 bikes.

I'll get mine up soon, I swear.

Biker Fox (which according to wikipedia is what he changed his legal name to be) is my new favorite celebrity, second only to Pac Man Jones of the Titans and his seemingly unstoppable bad habit of "makin' it rain".
