Just had this delivered yesterday,good price off the bay,he never had oldschool in the title so it didnt get many bids.
This was the bike i had back in the day but it was stolen in 86.
Going to build it exactly as it was when it was nicked,right down to the copy tech 3s and victor dx pedals.
Condition of forks and front triangle is mint,rear triangle has some chrome flake,and its missing a downtube decal.
Only the third one i have seen on the bay in the 3 years i have been into oldschool
Sorry for crap blackberry pics,too excited to get the camera out.
And here is me getting rad back in the day before it got nicked
Will take a while to get this built,although i have amassed a few parts waiting for when i finally got one in chrome.
I also have to finish the painted one i have

You sound made up that you have finally got your hands on one , building it how you had it bitd sounds cool to me
Love the old pic too
Can't decide whether you have the scarve over your eyes and you have got two noses or just one big forehead
Only kidding mate

Did i not send you a picture
??
They're over Sawzalls at the moment. They were defo MRD Expert bars as they were a mirror copy of his Pro bars but slightly smaller mate. I'll get some across to you as soon as. They need a rechrome though but that was expected.
