the reason i got a ripper bitd...

[meticulous]

everyone banged on about them being alloy and not as strong as chromemoly bmx but these few photos were enough to justify me getting one....

There was a bit in this book that said 'here's a freestyle bike' and there was a Ripper and a Haro... and the Ripper looked soooooo tasty 

[meticulous]

i must say though that i was a lot more sypathetic with my landings when i was on my ripper....

Yep,the PK Ripper was the only bike for me bitd.

  Just got to love a Ripper

I remember one of the "bigger boys" at our bmx track had one in white....it looked so much cooler than any other bike

And that's why I love em 

The day me and my Dad went to J&E James in Chesterfield to pick mine up I was sooooooooooooooooo excited.

3 friends had Rippers

2 white ones with black Tuffs  

But Brian Beveridge had a Ball burnished Ripper . blue Z rims and the Full SE camo race gear , oh yes  

Thr whole SE deal ,,,,,the frames , the team , the camo. soooo cool

Everybody round our way thought Rippers  were the coolest

I loved Rippers bitd but they were our most returned frames, always seemed to break at the chainstay behind the bb.  I was always impressed by Mike Buffs feats on his Ripper and have to say his rides always looked cool.

That's where mine broke but it WAS after 2 years of 180 to rollbacks n rockwalks.

think it was all about your riding style and how clumsy you was at landing,  theres no denying they were the best looking frames with the best forks...

I got my 1st one when my old Man told me he found the BMX I wanted in the paper and to go with him to collect it. On the way he told me it was a Halfords bike, I found it hard to hide my disappointment until we rolled up and this lad said " so your the lucky kid who's getting the P.K Ripper"....that was simply the best BMX moment I have ever had 

Loved that bike and still have it now  SE by far the coolest brand out there bitd

[Peter J]

As a kid I never did freestyle parks or ramps because we didn't have any where I lived. Did the usual bunny hopping milk crates or home made jump ramps and we build some jumps in the woods near where I lived

I raced my ripper for at least a season and never had a problem

always loved the pic of Buff dropping off of a rrof..think he was running z rims in the pic...can anyone oblige?
