Apollo Freestyle? What have I got?
I rescued this bike from the dump today.
Seems pretty cool to me, but I know nothing about BMXs
Can anyone give me some more info about the bike, age, relative level of quality, etc?
The rear end is kinda bent but i think it can straighten out.
I'll probably overhaul/polish it, maybe delete the gyro. Wondering if it's worth throwing a bit of money at or just get it going to give to a kid?

Cro-mo frame and fork,... Definitely looks worthy of a rehab. Post pics of the finished bike please.
