It's BMX Action all over again.

Cool catalog! They did nail the retro thing.
I wonder who is making the Flight cranks these days?
Awesome catalog!!
Too bad they're not making the OM Flyer for 2017. I had planned on buying one, but looking at getting a PL26 now. The new white paint PL26 for 2017 pretty much sealed it.
And I'm 99% sure Redline still makes Flight cranks. Although Flights aren't their top of the line cranks, anymore. I'm impressed they come with Oakley B-1B's or Mushrooms and Donuts!

Yeah, Red Line still does Flight cranks. I just put a set on my retro Skyway.
Nostalgia is big these days. I was on the prowl for an SE or big Haro cruiser, but ended up with a STLN Zeke XLT for $175, like new. Couldnt really pass that up.
Do they all come out of the same plant in China, or are some of these big cruiser American made?
Pretty much all of these retro bikes are made in China.
To get something American-made, you're looking at an S&M, FBM, Laird, Standard, etc.--something more modern. My usual rider is an S&M, and I love it.
I miss my old Moosegoose, one of the guys at the shop rode it to the corner store and didnt lock it up, came out and it was gone. replaced it with a Free Agent Limo but its just not the same. I just cant bring myself to buy a retro Chinese bike.
It's amazing how the right decals can make something feel retro enough.
