Watching the reply to this with interest as I thought it was something along the lines of 1" threaded forks and "U" brake, so no 1.1/8" steerers and no "V" brakes.  As there's no formal OS series running these days I think it depends on where you race.  At Hersden I qualify as just "old" so they let me run Nu  Skool bikes to get the numbers up whilst at BADBMX we're just happy to have some of the old crusties turn up at all!!  The riders at Braintree were indeed on OS rides and very good it was to see all those older bikes but at the end of the day it's all about getting some of the older riders out and enjoying themselves.  Humps

ffs im only 32 is that old skool age as i have the correct forks and brake plus im unfit not to fat yet but maybee in a few years i can fulfill all criteria

[muttley]

As per Billy mate but dont think for one minute you will suffer as if you go for something early nineties you will meet the criteria and have a nice long TT.

Flaz hope you can make Hersden next year
