1985 Kuwahara Laser Lite

1985 Kuwahara Laser lite Dayglow Pink Vintage BMX

Another rider from the collection… a late ’85 Kuwahara Laser lite in Dayglow Pink!

Made in Japan by Tange in November 1985, this frame set was badly faded, but originally day glow pink as the paint was bright and preserved in the head tube and bottom bracket areas. Restored to it’s original “Hot” pink color, and some added Factory and some custom, but era correct blue and white parts to finish it off!

Icing on the cake… some New Old Stock IRC Super MX-8 gumwalls in a bright white!
