Know your history and you'll know all about the frame. Super cool but comes but very over priced. think it's the 4th time it's been advertised over the years now.

Still, there are 2 in the UK though

Its a total shame he peeled off the decals.....to me that is just as bad as removing the finish.

Tough to get top dollar now for it no matter how many pictures he has 'before' he took them off.....

Very nice but I just couldn't justify sending over 3k on a bmx frame

denzil · « **Reply #10 on:** July 29, 2013, 06:32 PM »

It's a very very nice frame, if anyone is thinking of buying it they can have mine for £2500

animal · « **Reply #11 on:** July 29, 2013, 06:44 PM »

Still can't get me head round the fact he took the decals off

I get that its rare, and early build and wot not

But it's not pretty is it

For me this old school game is all about nostalgia, about the bikes you had or wanted bitd.

How many of us really hanker for one of these, no if I had crazy money going begging I'd be after a Freeagent freestyler

You love it really

You know the best thing about the picture of the ole farts racing ?... I own the helmet Scot's wearing

I'm a bit dubious about this frame anyway and the full extent of it's history.

Thread about this over at the Museum .......SB says the frame was stolen from him and the bloke selling it says it wasn't.....

there story that fella posted sounds convincing enough about the ownership of it.
some people do some shady things when there skint and sounds like the OM is in the wrong here.
would like to see his reply on the museum to what the fella posted

I've heard a few things about this frame over the years Dave about who owned it etc etc. I believe it was "loaned" to the hall of fame for display along with heaps of other stuff and someone down the line sold almost all of it off while the OM was otherwise occupied !!!
That photo is from the early 80's when a bunch of oldies hopping on vintage bikes for a one off race and the OM used that frame.

Removing the decals = dumb ass
