no worries Joff, seems to be the way things are on here, I mean it is a BMX site so why bother to compliment someone who has put a bit of effort into saving and restoring an o/s bike, start a thread about how many pubes you have or ive just shined a nut and off we go 28 pages >:D

...nice1 Christian, this is better than the Torker simply because I did a lot of resto work on it, whereas I just bought NOS bits and built the 280x...and this 1 tastes of Golden Vagina >:D
