So I recently found this bike for 100 bucks. (Paid 80)
I am a pretty new school rider (riding 2 years and I am 24 years old) so I got no idea about this bike.
I just know the seat, cranks and pedals where cool oldschool parts and thats why I got it.
Parts I think I can make out:
Wtp frame (maybe thrillseeker?)
Primo tenderizer pedals
Primo powerbite (?) Cranks
Wtp sprocket
Primo seatclamp
Primo post
Primo seat
Primo V Monster tires
Alex (Triple wall?) Rim
Son of bomb rear hub
Diacomp dirty harry breaks (?)
I have 0 clue about bars, forks, front wheel, breaks
If you more educated riders could tell me some more info, maybe even worth, of what I got (year, model name etc) I would greatly appreciate it!!
Also would you ride this bike? Thought about getting metal pegs and doing some light tricks for fun. Would this hold up? Trying to experience the oldschool vibes lol
Thanks alot!

It’s cool but it’s a grandad bike
It’s a classic for sure applicable for progressing your ride probably not but it is a find
I would have been tempted to pay $100 for that seat alone. This thing is a relic and an absolute score top to bottom. Great find!
Isn’t that a haro blamo frame? I had one I remember it looking like that but I think a few others had similar looks. Oops NVM saw the last picture with wtp on it looks similar though!
It’s a solid build it seems! Could be a 4 Seasons frame as well, not sure though. I wouldn’t necessarily go too hard on it as you don’t know how abused it was at one point. If anything it could be used as a backup for friends.
I used to have that same seat. That bike is definitely a dinosaur
Yeah this bike is a killer deal for 100, you could sell the parts for more, grease everything up and ride it for fun
Man I used to have a bunch of these parts…
I remember riding a bike like this thinking it would last forever… here’s the proof.
Awesome that you bought it! Looks like you have a Hoffman bikes jumping stem too. I nailed the rims on your op!
That rear rim looks like a triple walled one but the front is likely the single wall mx-22 alex rim, quite a few people did that to save a little weight since the front doesn’t take anywhere near as much stress.
This is basically the bmx everyone rode mid 2000’s probably an old complete that was slowly upgraded.
You stick 4 metal pegs and some metal bar ends on there and it’ll be near indestructible. It’ll be heavy and a lot different geometry wise than newer bikes though.
Previous owner definitely had some fun times on it from the chewed up powerbites. Sick find.
Looks like a 2002 Wethepeople Thrillseeker frame.
I don’t know if these were sold as complete bikes, but yours has some really solid parts on it.
The wheelset alone is worth a lot more than what you paid for the bike.
Time capsule for sure. I had most of these primo parts at one time. Even had a set of the v monsters. Not sure if i would want to daily it though.
