Sorry to butt in :D
I've got this one which is a Comp as opposed to a Pro. Not quite as box fresh as yours but I like it, shame its not red though I have to say :?
Being aluminium its unbelievably light for a bmx frame, I was going to build it up but my Floval flyer has jumped the queue :D
Hijack over ;)

dont worry bout it :D its still in pretty good condition though. post it up here when your finished

:D :D

Now you've got it built up it looks short?

i think its just the angle the pic's on, the wheel does fit quite nicely in the dropouts, only the brake wouldn't reach :( but thats fine, i'll just take the studs out for the time being and put a brake on the front

Bummer about the brakes but looks really nice anyway. You going to try and track down some wheels for it?

theyre a little difficult to find and id have to find tyres as well, so probably not. but its got a brake on the front, which works well and doesnt spoil the look of it too much, so i think i'll just leave it alone
 
never got around to finishing this, so here it is with some shadow conspiracy forks, crucial front wheel and a 90s GT stem :D

with the front brake re fitted
