Do standards slip as you get older or are you just a cheap bastard?

I was thinking last night after reading this that I am not bothered in the slightest about other peoples bikes or my own-it's not a big deal.
Love BMX,met some top blokes that will remain  top friends whatever happens BMX wise and that to me is much more important than how many HUTCH hubs someone has got or if someone prefers Haro's to Halfords....it doesn't make you any cooler or have more cred on a kiddie bike forum  

Enjoy the hobby,get some excercise...in the big scheme of things though it's just 80's skipfood, glorified by few.

haha is that the famous katau's helmet?
the fooker never put it on for us like he promised

hope he paid up in the end though

That Katau is a rip-off thieving cunt that deserves everything nasty that's coming to him 

I take it he's still not paid then? bang out of order

Its what you can afford, I hadnt bought anything from Alans for years and when I logged in there was some old stuff in my basket that I never get round to buying, suntour stem for example was about £15 in 2004/5 what would it be now?  Torker f&f £120 is another, now it would be three times that, and there was lots of it as well.

Can we hear more from the originator of this thread please, his comments are the highlights of my day.

[Rodgy1970]

I've seen a few different threads about things like using repops and non era correct parts like twin pinch cranks on old school builds on forums but this has to be the first time I've seen out and out snobbery about the brand or type of parts used.

I would love a set of NOS green and blue label comp 3's but never while my arse looks downwards would I ever even consider paying over £200-300 for a set.

[southern andy]

Here's a cheap pile of shit for yer    well two actually.








And a 3rd place at MK10

[Jaymz]

Here's some more tat, cost me £12 initially, frame made of straws, 8mm front axel coaster brake, about 20 spokes in each wheel, total tat. But again rare as hens teeth and the only anyone has ever seen




Still has a barcode on it

Couldn't have said it better myself.

As for hating on the parts that are on restored bikes, does that extend to hating on SR stems that are on builds which would have come with SR stems from new?, because if so that makes absolutely no sense.
I fail to see a reason for whining over which parts someone else choses to use for their builds, if they like it then that's all that matters, if you don't like it, don't fookin' look at it.

[jT Racing]

Anybody want to buy a maxi cross crank set? Same as used on the shiners ad for the pk ripper bitd.
Decent price.

I must have thought the same cos I never bought em meself!!!

[LucyLastic]

Ooooo, i wonder what the parts are worth on my bike now,  mmm. 

My bike is made up of mid range stuff, the araya aeros are probably the best bit, oh and I did stick a 5 quid seat post on it from halfords just to get it finished.
