Whitefield Survivor Bike Chrome
Whitefield Survivor Bike Chrome
Limited edition of 75 bikes across all the models. Each bike is numbered on the frame seat tube.
The Survivor
From the total quantity of about 75 frames, forks and bars, there were a handful of these chrome frames. The chrome frames were pretty rusty, as were the wheels for them, so just for fun we built one up as it was “rat look” style and everyone that saw it, loved it! We thought it could be a cool budget project for those who want a genuine 1980’s BMX bike without sending thousands. This bike became what we’re calling the “Survivor” model and it is available in component form with everything to build it into a complete bike that you can keep as is or restore, repaint etc or as a complete bike assembled by us.
New numbered sticker set included.
Components may vary slightly due to availability, in particular the seats and stems shown on the sample bike will be substituted with Velo VL-117 and silver SunTour-style Power stem when we run out of those parts.
PLEASE NOTE: Do to their age and condition; these bikes are sold for STATIC DISPLAY ONLY, not for riding.
The Story
A couple of years ago we were approached by someone about “a quantity of old BMX parts” he had. After our excitment subsided when we found out it wasn’t a lock-up full of VDC Changas, we went to take a look at what he had. The start of the accompanying video shows the moment when we first saw the scale of what we had here.
Basically this chap had bought this old stock, along with some regular bikes a much of years ago from a bike shop it Bury. Now it looks like they imported these at the time in compotent form as the the duty was lower than complete bikes. There was pretty much everything to make these into complete bikes with two different frames. These would have probably been comparable to a Moto One or something back in the day.
Anyway we took a gamble, hired a van and hauled everything back to Wigan, counted everything up and waited for a time when we could decide what to do with it all. After making some initial plans and making a couple of sample bikes which we displayed at the We Were Rad event at Southsea in April 2023, Alan got seriously ill right after and the project got put on hold.
Fast forward to 2025, all is good and the project is ready to go!
