What was my childhood BMX?
I’m hoping you guys can help me figure out what it was. Here’s what I remember about it:
They also made out in black trim; my brother has that one.
Any idea what they were?
- Purchased at Sears around 1985
- chrome frame
- blue knobby tires
- blue hard plastic seat
- grips were white with blue dots from an under layer
- dual caliper brakes

No idea about the model but have you looked in the 85’ Sears catalog?
My childhood was spent on MX and gravel riding as I grew up in Japan. Missed BMX completely.

Found it, thanks!
This was my main Christmas present in 1985. I wish I still had it! If I had it these days, I'd fit blue street tires and a decent seat. (blue, if possible)
