Bike Check: Tim Judge's Hutch...sorta

the one on your right isn't really Tim Judges bike, it was re-created by a guy we call "Vintage Tom".  after seeing this lean, sweet piece of BMXin' history in an old magazine he set out to recreate it and we think his efforts are worth a little coverage here. 

Oakley 3 grips are silly

is that the same brake that comes with the "brakeless" Fits?

his attention to detail is incredible, even in the comparison photos

i can almost hear the announcer now, "Vintage Tom is haulin' into the homeshot and haulin' bananas in cosmo style...over and roostering for the whoops, cleared, and full grunt to the table top!  cross-up bongo onto the table and headed for Red Light City and the finish!  the opposition has been trash canned by Vintage Tom!  that sure was some high-zoot action!"  so here's to you, Re-creater of the Radness...grab yourself an ice cold tall one, you've earned it. 

*note: thanks to Steve for reminding me that BMX announcers have always been lame, even back in 1981.
