I haven't seen them over here yet - if they are they retailing at £500, if so I'd say that it was worth it - you could buy one and flog the Oakleys off it for something stupid on the bay to help fund it, jobs a good 'un

"its like a corporate designed trip down memory lane"
thats all you're buying tbh,
i cant believe folks are still falling for this luke warm re-hashed shite year after year after year....
Se racing mugs? SE racing tea-towels? Se racing pyjamas?
fook Se racing, i'm openly ashamed for them,
the few times i've seen fully grown blokes riding this cack i actually feel sorry for them.

The frames have been around a few years now,not so bad but the quality of the parts could be better.I don`t get why they do this frame with A-Headset & V-mounts then stick a US bb on it though
Don`t rate the quality of the parts either.And they`re about £150 cheaper at Chainreaction for essentially the same bike.

I've had two of them...I no longer have any of them...nice looking until you get up close. ultimately the components look cheap, the bike creaks and flexes.
Ok for a ride down the road, but I wouldn't put one anywhere near a bit of unlevel ground...
Look good, but £500...absolutely not!!!

And the SE Racing debate rumbles on...
I have owned a 2006 PK Ripper since new and it gets ridden every week on the track and I have no issues with it. It hasnt fallen to bits or broken (unlike me). I am pleased with the quality of the components and I dont find them cheap and bog standard... double walled rims and flip flop hubs etc ( I know they aren't on the 2011 Retro). However, £500 is a lot of money...especially when the 2011 PK Ripper XLP is only £479 and I think thats a great (and competitive) bike.
If you like it, buy it ... it is a bit expensive though.

The regular Rippers are designed as proper race bikes though,not as toys for old men
