Not very old school I'm afraid but I got Kelvin Batey's 2005 Championship whinning bike off him last year (minus cranks & wheels). A bit too long for me so I've since sold the frame but kept the Bombshell forks, S&M race stem, One bars, Shimano brakes and Thompson Masterpiece seat post and used them on a new ONE Pro 52 frame, which feels much better. Here's pics of Kelvin using the bike in 2005, the bike as I built it up (note the mega-short stem I tried using), and me using it at Clydebank (wearing a set of Kelvin's old race gear & helmet), and a pic of what the surviving parts look like now on the new frame....

I cant beleive you broke down my elf dude, featured in backyard jam 91 i think jumping the 26 foot casam! Steve Keech from BMX TALK has my original 1983 Patterson Racing PR200 frame and forks, he has just offered it back to me! How about that? Clive Gosling has Skyway Graphites, cook bros cranks. I have original 80's Ukai blue speedline rims and shimano DX seatposts.

I know Adam Morrison is negociating with you at present. Do you still have the Comp 2.125 front tyre or was it IRC?

I had Tommy Brackens GT shirt from the Kellogs the year he won it.
Also Scott Clarks Redline shirt from the same year.

Auctioned them off for charity a few years ago.
Scott Dick (Unc Buck) bought them.
