Here are a few pics of the last of the bikes we got. It's a Haro Zi Fusion Group1 BMX. It has Araya aluminum rims. I like it a lot:

Were they centers? I try not to look at them, as the strike zome (ESPECIALLY the pink one, you bastige) is something I lust after with unhealthy verve. There are 3 bikes I need to clone in my life. The Strike zone Dominguez, Predator Freeform Z 85-87, and a 1994 Dyno Compe purple rain with 4 pc knee savers. I could quit there.

Did anyone answer the question about chains? Any local bike shop will have what you need. A 1/8-inch chain will be the safe bet, too. Some bikes are set up for a narrower (and lighter) 3/32-inch chain, but I'd stick with the 1/8. Note that you'll need a chain tool, too, in order to cut it to length.

It's extra-beefy, but I'm running a Shadow Interlock chain on my latest build: http://www.theshadowconspiracy.com/chains/

You guy's have inspired me. I'm going to start saving my nickels while trying to find a Dyno Compe like I used to have. There are a couple VFR's for sale locally but I'm going to hold out for a Compe and piece together the components to make it like my old one.

Very cool. Do we need to have an informal BMX showoff at the $2015 Challenge?

You still doing the informal swap-meet? Maybe I should just load up bike parts and head down for that.

Actually, I have some old parts that I was just going to eBay.
