Great photos.

I bet that woman was going to buy some offal & pear drops. On her return journey she notices a noddy mag on the floor sticking out from under a hedge & tuts shaking her head. But ponders having a flick just before Blankety Blank.

There's a couple of members on here (Animal & Sawzall) who may be able to help you get the Ripper fixed. Get some pics up in tech & resto and I'm sure someone will tell you if it's do-able.  :daumenhoch:

K thanks. It's in me mums loft along with near complete original GT pro performer with black alu hub tuffs and VDC monkey bars! The ripper was taken back to bare frame n forks. Always planned to hang it up as a reminder! I'll try n get pics of it nxt time I visit. I also have original haro digital or aero plate, Haro elbow protectors araya blue rims from my diamond back pro errr original aero blu crash pads errr aero brake protector oh and my Yes crash helmet. Also somewhere I have a signed Tim March racing top I won racing against Sid Salisbury down Benfleet Essex racetrack. That was supposed to be Sids factory blue Ripper when he was SE racing sponsored. But lankey git wanted a quadangle. I was working weekends in Rad City Benfleet and he offered ripper to me. Was at Rad City for both Eddie Fiola and Skyway tours.
