elina UL snakepost appreciation thread

[hunterdubber]

You had a shakey start there James,but came thru in the end,good lad

Well he usually has a shakey start  , a shakey middle and a shakey end to the finish line       

[hunterdubber]

had to have a look griff just to see what builds these seats actually go on, they didnt let me down

 

Did Stevie wonder do freestyle in 80's ?

Snakebend + a UL in one

Each to their own , eh?   


It would be boring if we all liked the same stuff 

[madferret]

i have a snake post in my reflex in the for sale at the moment but alas its not a ul mines hand crafted by taiwanses virgines in deepest kung po on a full moon blind folded ,so mine isnt worthy of the ul label

Just ordered my UL SP off Fleabay for my Noob build.

Not sure why we are so special, but very glad we are! 

[sweetbeats]

I think they are a pile of steaming dog sick.
Wouldn't knock someone or someone's bike for having one though-they just make me queasy especially a snakepost or any layback with a brace type thing on it.

dunno about special, more like special needs   anyway get some pics up of the elina in all it's bendy glory once you've got your aero built

Nothing against them just never liked them much

no worries, I understand it's still too early for you to appreciate what is still a groundbreaking design classic 
but feel free to come back and visit any time


agree with you on the braced posts though.....

Yaymen!

No one got Tony Wilson, Joy Division, or The Hacienda in the early days...... 

Like the UL SP, some things are initially only understood by those with a mildly insane artistic genius... 

Eventually everyone catches on, and then the innovators and early adopters move on.....

judging by what you paid the prices are already moving back up

I'll take that in the complimentary manner I know you meant, Griff! 

[griff]

[Andy68]

How did Andy get in & out without you knowing Pete ? .....................

ok so I have a small ocnfession - while sourcing bits for my superfox I got a gt layback for it, then discovered that porkchop's got repop dominator saddles for $19.99
then I thought that this would actually be rather nice to put on the haro instead, so will shortly be taking the elina out 







don't worry though, as the elina's lightweight quality will come in very handy for the superfox when I take it on the track


and mr bobafett if you read this I will not be sawing it into 3 pieces so there
(I would still like my trick name displayed please)
