Fookin hell like buses these robbo's  ::) :LolLolLolLol:

Another bike that looks soooooooo much better in the flesh - the chrome job on this is ace  8)

Another cracker Carl - time you got the full robbo collection over to that field for a group shot  :coolsmiley:

Maybe after the 79's done ?

PS - those alternating red/blue nipples are ace  !  ;D 8)

That's a beauty bud, but I doubt you'll be 360-ing those rims :2funny:

You gotta have a mini in any decent collection :daumenhoch:

Very nice Carl  :daumenhoch: , those pedals go crazy close to the front tyre ! ( or is it camera angle ? ) . Headangle looks super tight , lightning steering !

just what i thought....    too many front hops maybe?   or are the forks the wrong way round?   looks real cute though! ;)

i'd hazard a guess on the forks being the wrong way round.

looks ace though ( or will do when they've been turned round, or bent back!)

 The cranks are long but they did come on that bike ..  Ill turn the forks round later and see what happens  :LolLolLolLol:   Or ride it to my local and see how it goes   ;D



Checked the forks and they are on the right way  :daumenhoch:  and they don't look bent  ???

Maybe the 175 cranks are throwing out a little  ??? .
