Right well I dunno if anyone on heres gonna be interested but as I want my car in the garage I need to clear some of the stuff out. So this is My felt BMX

Not sure what I'd swap it for so offer what you got and I'll think about it.

If I were to sell it I would like to get atleast £50 for it. The blue tyres cost £30 alone and the bike was around the £200 mark.

Heres a bad picture. I'll give it a good clean and get some better pictures over the weekend.

Cheers.

That looks like it has had a good street session or two! Reminds me of my old BMX days. I used to ride Street/dirt on my S&M Dirt Bike (before they were called the "Classic"). Prior to my Dirt Bike I used to ride the S&M Holmes but switched as I found the Holmes harder to manual due to the 21" top tube. Briefly I rode a Standard Trailboss, DK XXL, and a few others. I gave up BMX about 4 years ago.....sometimes I still dream of riding the rhythm again. You ever heard of "Kris Bennet"? He was a full factory sponsored Dirt Jumper, he was in the X Games quite a few times too. He was one of my associates during High School, we're from the same town. Due to this I have met a few pros. I met TJ Lavin, Flying Squirrel, and some racer....his name was Neil, he was sponsored by DK then eventually went over to S&M. I can't remember his last name. Also, my buddy Ryan Thompson was unofficially sponsored by S&M as well. Another friend of mine Andy Bavas was sponsored by Schwinn for the NBL race series.

We had some very famous trails in Titusville PA. We were also close to the world renowned "PUSH" trails near Pittsburgh. I also went to school with the "Farm Boys" which were a heavy duty dirt jump crew from Russell PA. If you have ever seen the PUSH video called "Tweekers" I used to own the S&M Holmes that Kris Bennet used to win the Daredevil of Dirt championship in Germany. In the video it was painted gold with one white star mag on the front. Them were the days! If I wasn't so old with bad knees I'd take the Felt off your hands :-. Good luck with the swap though, you have a great bike there...good frames them there Felts!

Yea I gotta say it has the odd scratch. Most of what you see their is just dirt from where its been in my garage since the end of last summer. It was my pride and joy and used it to go everywhere. But now I have my mini its not needed and is taking up space in my garage. I used to main ride dirt jumps as their some really good ones in the woods near my house. If it don't go then I think I'll strip it paint it (maybe the same colour as my car)and give it another ride this summer and sell it after that.

I should also have put that I have a few spares for it like some rather rusty stunt pegs as well as the front brakes. The rear brakes also have brake pads shaped as trainers.
