Some of my personal favourite old school BMX builds that I’ve stumbled across on the interwebs and in real life.

Everyone loves building, riding and admiring old school BMX bikes for different reasons, and for me it’s most often custom builds with a unique quality of design, colour and part choice that catch my eye. I see identical, mint, ‘factory’ builds everywhere I look these days, so I love discovering bikes through which the builder has made an effort to elicit a point of difference and put something of themselves into the build – that’s what inspires me!
