Ok so I dont have an image to show you but my buddy from back in the day had this totaly hot KUWAHARA freestyle bike. It was black and had yellow handle bars with some yellow graphics down the lower tube. Im sure it had twin top tubes kind of like the haro master but it had extra pipe work in the frame for flatland tricks and stuff. I remember it was very cool and seemed rare back then.
Was this a BRAVO PRO? How hard would it be to find one of these bikes now days?

Hey J,
welcome to the site. I am sure someone might be able to answer you if they know. Alternatively you could go to www.bmxmuseum.com and have a look and see if you can find it.

Cheers
Phil

Yep found it, the bike I was thinking of was the KUWAHARA BRAVO PRO TEAM. Man that thing is one tough looking bike. All business and little show as far as I could remember.

God only knows where I might find a BRAVO PRO? Being fresh back in to the scene is there a rough guide to what a bike like this might sell for in todays market? Are there collectors around in Australia that might part with bikes like this or is an international deal?

There would be some here in Oz for sure. Kuwahara was as big here as they were in the US.
Even today, Kuwahara does not sell completes in the US, but we get them here.

Kicked up a pretty scrappy example from eBay in the states. Payed far too much for it but there will still be plenty need spending on yet. This bike will cost me atleast $1500 when im done. The things you do when passion takes over. LOL!
