It's a Top programme Dave  :daumenhoch:

Yeah it's the same Rickman

There were a few bike companies  did the BMX frames


Got to admit the jap ones they do  are very good ,,,

but from a purists point of view really a cafe racer should be British  :Great_Britain:

A nice Featherbed Tri ton  or Nor Vin  :smitten:

Rickman used the geometry from the GT Pro to splutter out the MRD frames... :( :( :(
