1960s old K zildjian that had bad cracks and was cut to save the cymbal/repair it so it would be playable.  The best sounding cymbal I have ever played! That one cymbal cost more than the bike!

 :angry: This is my wonderful "flatland" Bmx bike... I really hate the fact that it really isn't good for anything to do with flat. But I guess I can learn to do Barspins on it until I get a proper bike some time...  ^_^ Kinda funny... The bike is a Canadian made Ventre Bmx bike from the mid 90's(?)(It being Canadian the first problem, Though I'm Canadian I know it won't get make right  -_- ). It is rusted together and I just left the cranks off because they are almost useless.
But I'm sure to get a KHE bike sometime since I found a store to order though (you people in the USA are lucky for the easy access to the bike shops that support flat. Nearest one to me is a couple of days away! Its really no fun).
Well sorry for the horrid picture but it helps me to feel better  ;D

  The celeste had a longer toptube and steeper headtube than my st. martin. For me, it has help a lot, it just feels more natural. I love the way this frame rides...Russ

I cannot say for sure. The bike fit together that way though I can easily change the position. Thanks for pointing that out  ^_^I guess I overlooked that "small" problem...  :rolleyes: Oh boy. Like I've said before, I'm pretty uneducated...

OK, here is my son Rutger's new BMX bike.  His 6th birthday is this Saturday.  I got this to replace the POS 12inch bike I got him from target.  I would love to see some other rides of kids his age.

^^^Fresh!^^^ 

when i was 6, my bike had solid blue rubber tires...  we used to do skids & hookslides for days until the tires were bald & starting to get flatspots.. i pounded the a$$ out of that bike!!  i think it might have been a Huffy...
flat rules everything around me f.r.e.a.m.
