i have, not keen, too heavy ! but maybe i'm just a miserable git and carrying too much excess weight myself.

it's the bland colours I don't like, too oppressive ! I like some of the mid schoolers, esp. those Standard frames..

Im a bit confused there. NS bikes are WAY lighter than the tanks of the 90s. Also, NS bikes are in more colours than any bike from the 80s. Just look on the fly or oddy web site and see all the horrid stuff they are doing now.

I can only speak for myself but I got back into BMX in November last year.It was after we has broadband installed and I just started surfing and found all this stuff on ebay, then found you lot. It seems to have become a small obsession. Its old school for me because it takes me back to something I loved when I was young, It was probably the best time of my life (Wife and kids aside of course) At the end of the day its horses for courses. Enjoy what you enjoy.

No probs mate. Its just that Newest New school is all about the most stupid light bikes in crazy colours. Im sure strength will come back "in" again some time
