Got this from TwoBobRob in the summer, most of the stuff was lurking under the bench from previous drunken buying sprees.

Decals were ebay for Â£4!!! that never happens for me!!

Just weighed it, 33 pounds, I thought it may be more.

Anyway, it is my `going to the offy' rider. It has a coaster, so I can carry more cans as I wont need fingers for braking

I love it, rides brill!!

An old ish dude turned up at our local park the other day on one of these

Rode the wheels off it... fair shredded the place n all....

Bet it gave his arms/back a good work out...

Nice pub/shop bike Mark...

The Ox bars were gratefully received from Mr Billstupps, and weigh at least a third of the weight of the bike!!

Can't get bar ends into the ends `cos the tube is about 3mm ID, and the chrome is so thick, were are going on holiday in it next year!!!!

Never had owt to do with Mid school, but am feeling the love now..

Not for the Pub Sid, the retro Quad is for that, this is purely off licence!!! ( and never the twain shall meet!!), I have a bike for fetching the paper, a milk bike, walking the dog and soon one for booking Ryanair flights!!!)

How else can I get away with all these bikes unless each one has a Job!!?

nice nike m8
saw this on a few bikes, but what is the mx clamp on the rear stay for?

sid1972 · « **Reply #9 on:** November 06, 2011, 01:25 PM »

Hope you don't mind me asking but how much was a good condition example fetch ? Got my eye on one lol

Munnyella · « **Reply #11 on:** November 06, 2011, 04:39 PM »

I wouldn't expect it to be a lot, as a guess, I'd only want to part with £100-150 for a complete.

but, on the other hand, this `budget build' has cost me more than that, but thats how it is. and buying a complete will always mean upgrades.

Thats a tidy bit of kit

Those pedals are nice, not seen em before

Nice! that'll get a few looks - you need an E.T. basket up front for the lager

I've got one of these on the way... it was on ebay but no one brought it. I saw it had some Shimano DXs so I made him an offer

I really like this bike brother.

Sometimes just as much fun building an odball.

Perfect for Pissed-up riding. L

looking good munny, having 2 rear brakes should mean you can do extra long skids too
