I was watching this last week, it was advertised as a VDC ? Call me naive but I wasn't quite sure what it is, not seen one like this before - now or bitd ? Any one know

It's the same as the VDC Change Freestyler tested in Freestyle BMX issue 14. I can scan the test for you later if you want?

deffo looks like a pit bike, and the buyer collects vdc stuff in the states so to pay that many pounds i reckon he knew what he was biddin on

As already correctly identified - a VDC Freestyler

I was trying to see if he would havefload for a couple of hundy as I was online when he posted it up - was making some headway but the the wax stepped in too and I wasn't going to get into a bidding war with him, so sat back and watched it go.

Tis a nice frameset, but awful colour, if I was lucky enough to have gotten it, I was going to get it chromed I reckon they would look the b*ll*cks in black and chrome!!

Quite rare, not many in the UK and it looks like that one is headed to that Heath dodgyUSebayseller chap.

There are a few in the US, mostly owned by FlanelCamel (Ray)

Frosty · « **Reply #18 on:** March 13, 2007, 04:12 PM »

Wouldn't it be ironic if the VDC didn't actually make there

Yeah, there are some big VDC collectors in the US, I know rvato (Rodney) has a wicked collection, I emailed him earlier to see if he saw it....

Have you seen Ray's collection of VDC's (I think the picture diesel posted is of one of his freestylers and his MDP)?

The photo is an old one, they are both VDC freestyler frames.

These were once in the UK, but however much I tried I could not get the seller to negotiate. he sold them for less then my offer in the end....
