    Description

    Webco BMX - 1978 Team "Replica" - All Original Survivor
    These are famous for dominating the competition in the formative years of BMX.. (Rick Twomey. Ricks Bike Shop.) This bike is special b
    ecause it was the first to use a "loop tail" design which was later copied by Redline, Diamondback, Mongoose, Hutch and many and others.
    This bike appears to be
    all original
    (see blue image). It even has the original Finish Line grips and original tires. I will be including a set of new exact match Finish Line yellow grips made from the original molds so you can choose whether to try to reuse the original or use new original style grips. There is also a rare sprocket cover that will come with this bike. I have only seen one other Webco with this sprocket cover so I know it is original equipment. But you will not find any in the BMX Museum with this sprocket cover. It was removed because at one point i was not sure it was original. Now I know it is. Makes this bike super unique and rare.
    Age appropriate paint chipping here and there but still looks great. Original Equipment Vintage Skyway Tuff Wheel 1's with coaster. Original "quilted" leather seat. A rare piece of bicycle history that should appreciate nicely in the years to come.
