Author Topic: How many Facebook bmx pages are there (Read 2296 times)

Was just wondering as I have seen three mentioned this morning I had never heard of, I like the hutch one but can't believe the money people are spending on retro repop bikes

There is far too many Pete, with people creating their own pages daily.

I agree, far too many.

I've culled it to 3, Rad, Hutch and the Burner one, the Burner one will be gone shortly though, I've never seen so much bitterness amongst grown men, it's ridiculous.

I have to say that Pooch's Hutch group is spot on, great for reference, some awesome bikes, sound lads, a decent place to be, nice one John.

Best one on there at the minute is the "warning fake bmx parts" page. Loads of great info on the dodgy snide stuff out there and what's currently being faked, such as Quadangles, TA's, KKT Lightning, Cook Bros stems etc etc etc

The stuff we could put on that fake site, maybe one day. Tbh had to bin radbmx one, way to many scary bikes on there for my liking

People will be shocked when they see what's being made and has been made over the years Pete.

Dave Hudson, that's a page all in itself!

It's like a Power Ranger, they wear their RadBMX T-shirts only when they are on the site

Don't you mean 'Power Moods!'

i think what he meant was that his bike had parts on it from many years, not just one year as was the case with some of mine.
the GT i was riding in 86 was a 83 frame with a mix of parts on it from 81-86

WINI · « **Reply #23 on:** April 08, 2015, 10:17 AM »

I've had it with ebay and fb fecktards. I sold a GT to some muppet back in January, who paid me half and still hasn't picked it up. Seems unable to basic information on board too, despite several attempts. One of many im afraid
