but seriously, a newschool bike is for the fun of riding and thrashing it. if you rode it a season it´s maybe worth a tenth of it´s og price.

it´s a totally different experiene, Robby. Feel free and just do it. With no regrets.

Thrash the bike and have fun!!!

Get a Condor Rob

I have access to one but I'm not 100% if that would be the new school route I want to go.

I think I'm over that one mate, the parts are over priced to build one proper spec.

I won't be building anything from the GT stable after my PFT is finished... Parts for them are like rocking horse poop! And cost a fair bit of wedge as well.

NS looking like OS eh? Imagine that as an idea - wouldn't catch me on a new bike that looked old.......

Ed's Supercross is more up your street than my Knight RetroGoose Rob - it's got twin top tubes and all, so go get one and ride it like you stole it

Robbo · « **Reply #35 on:** May 23, 2012, 08:58 AM »

Looking good Spen, lets see some more pictures of your Knight Goose!

Spen69 · « **Reply #36 on:** May 23, 2012, 11:50 AM »

No need to Rob, just search for any of Pickle's threads, there will be about 10,000 pictures of his.... Just imagine it painted black with rough blue bits and a few scratches on it and you're there bud

A couple of bikes ago yes, thats why I said a few posts up I'm better off building what I'm best known for.

anyone selling to robbo thinking he'll 'keep it OG' is probably going to be upset
on the plus side values of the remaining originals will go up once it's stripped down

Hi Paul, I'll be going back to the OG finish. Just a shame its my normal colour scheme as I fancied something different.
