Kuwahara LaserLite. 1983
At the age of 13, I bought my first Kuwahara in 1985. The bike was used and I found it in the “Gula-tidningen” (advertising paper) in Kungsängen. I had it for a couple of years and then sold it to a member of the Älvsjö BMX Club. Many years later, in 2010, I found it for sale at Blocket.se (swedish version of Craigs List). I called and bought it right away. I couldn’t believe it was true that I had found my old LaserLite from back in the days. 😀
When I sold the bike, some of the parts was different from when I raced it, and some of the old parts was saved in my dad’s basement. I have tried to build the bike exactly the way I had it back in the days. All of my old parts is marked by *** in the listing below.
When I had the bike in the 80´s, my dream was to have an Haro Circuit Plate (number plate) instead of a cheap Tech plate copy that I had, but I couldn’t afford it. 25 years later, I was very happy to receive a red NOS (new old stock) Haro Circuit Plate from Patrik “Döskallen”. I did also get the Tioga Task Force cranks and spider from Patrik (powdercoated in white by Barspin-Danne).
