When i posted My 78 Robinson i posted this original photo of Scott clark on a 78 Robinson ( 1979 ) .

Last night Jason Ramsden and Tony Law ( legends ) and joff

came round to have a look at my bikes ....... they had a rip round the street on a Robinson and my GT and once they get the hang of a track again the old school riders are gonna get a shock ...

Tony is mental .. and fast ! .. Oh

they also pointed me in the right direction to a Torker Cruiser

Anyway Jason left and sent me a TXT saying i'm commin round again with something special ..

( not a 10k hooker ) but this ... Given to him by Chuck Robinson

in 1982 when he raced for Robinson in the USA its an original Scott clark Race Jersey that he raced in from 1980 ( i'd kill for the one in the Photo ) but this to me is amazing ...

And yes i have tried it on, and it fit's ..

I haven't reached legend status yet then Carl

Cool pics Carl and an even cooler race jersey , actually thought you were going to wet yourself when Jason brought it round and showed it to you

Nice gesture on Jasons behalf and two sound lads who like you say were pretty handy on a BMX bitd

I knew you said you were going to sleep in it but i didn't actually think you would

It was a good night all round mate .......... my wallets a lot lighter this morning

Cheers for the deal Carl , appreciated

That jersey is a proper piece of kit

When I first saw that black & white shot of Scott Clark I thought it was Alan Woods

Anyway,here's a shot I took in the summer of 2007 of ex-Torker rider Mike Pardon with his own tribute to Scott Clark.

Joff ,,,,the Yellow 280X with black Z's was it ?

Nice

Are you gonna make any changes to personalise/tweak it ? or is it perfect as it is

That's the one Christian , it has Yellow Z's though, black hubs

The Z's look NOS but they don't have the ACS Z rim around the rim $:-\$ Did they all come with that ? .... I ain't no Z rim expert

It's just not like me to buy a full bike and keep it as it is , im into my full restorations , re sprays , restoring the battered parts etc but this one is staying as it is , maybe a couple of tweeks , brakes and grips possibly

I just love it how it is

hunterdubber · « **Reply #16 on:** June 16, 2011, 08:16 PM »

The early ones didn't have the Logo's on the side ( I'm almost sure )

Do they say Made in England on them ?

Can't see any 'made in england' on them just 'ACS Z rim pat pend'

The rim surface has got the same slightly rough texture as the centre bit of the rim , making me feel they haven't been restored/flatted back etc . There mint either way , I just fancied adding some of Del's finest decals to continue the Yellow and Black theme but if they aren't meant to have them i won't bother

Cheers Dubber

Did a bit of searching Christian , you were right

http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=101952.0 looks like i have the earlier USA made ones which just have one decal near the valve hole

The English made ones had the lettering around the rim edge . Thought the ones i have didn't look like they had been used but couldn't get my head around the lack of rim markings .

hunterdubber · « **Reply #23 on:** June 16, 2011, 11:20 PM »

Exactly

,, You wondered if they were NOS

If they had " Made in England" moulded on you'd know the logo's would've been rubbed off

you've got some minty early un's , Bonus
