That sounds incredibly overkill if I'm going to be perfectly honest
Its been used and abused as a BMX flatland rider since I got it around 1997, I crack ball bearings and sometimes other parts..
So yeah, nearly full teardown and rebuild (and spare bearings and such) are necessary for a full proper maintenance + cleaning.
Honestly, these days it needs more than that, now it needs a welding machine plus probably a few custom made braces to tend to various stress cracks.
The frame is a 1981 Mongoose Supergoose, pretty much everything else is custom from various scrap parts.
