Oh man gold Deore hubs with white rims ? You gotta post a photo when they're done ! We can never have too many wheels !! They're much easier to make room for than whole bikes. We can both thank the good 'ol world of BMX for tempting us all as it doesn't suffer from upgrade-itis like road and mtb stuff.
If anyone is interested in old-school brakes for any of their bikes in many colors check these out .... of interest to me is the Dia-Compe 988 cantilever brakes in colors. Colorful headset spcers if you need them too ! https://porkchopbmx.com/brakes/brake-calipers-and-sets/ https://porkchopbmx.com/old-school-bmx-parts/headsets-and-spacers/ For MKS users they have pedal end caps and the wrenches for them. They have colorful VP-747 Bear trap pedals if you're looking for them. https://porkchopbmx.com/old-school-bmx-parts/pedals/ Colorful presta valve caps ! https://porkchopbmx.com/old-school-bmx-parts/valve-caps/ Decals .... as a kid we used to covet getting STP oil stickers for Earl's Service Station... back when there was such a thing. He's check your fluids while he filled your gas tank. In side the postage stamp sized shop was a returnable bottle pop machine and a accordion-door chest freezer with ice cream sandwiches. Porckchop has some nice looking ones ! Kool-Stop, Tange, Suzue, True Temper and MKS stickers ... who knew ? The Porkchop "Hot Wheels" and Red-White-Blue style stickers look kinda cool. https://porkchopbmx.com/old-school-bmx-parts/decals-stickers/ The Made in Japan page has some hard to find Dia-Compe among other parts. https://porkchopbmx.com/made-in-japan/ Too much to list ! It's like stepping into a cool old-world bike shop like Kraynick's in Pittsburgh where I have gotten a number of vintage SunTour shifters and brakes, among other parts !
