Just bought a set of NOS Blue Shimano DX pedals. They were not cheap.

a snip.

Well I figured they were as rare as rocking horseshit and you'll probably never find another set brand new in the box ever again. Besides they're going on a show bike that will never get ridden and so they'll always be as mint as the day i get them. When and if I ever sell them I'll get my money back no problem as they're one of the most iconic bmx items ever in one of the rarest colours.

Wait until you see it Ratty, it's a work of art mate.

This is the first time I've bought what I would call an exotic it of kit.

RATTY · « **Reply #13 on:** May 03, 2007, 11:24 PM »

It has to be something special if your gonna put them beautiful pedals on it!!!! Oh well at least theres one burner worth £150 on here

Zippy · « **Reply #14 on:** May 03, 2007, 11:27 PM »

I'll post some pictures up as soon as it's finished which should be next week at the latest.

i dare ya

Zippy · « **Reply #17 on:** May 04, 2007, 12:48 PM »

I'll bring it to hersed to show you next week but no buggers ever going to ride it, especially not roud a track.

MeddlE · « **Reply #18 on:** May 04, 2007, 12:58 PM »

What's the point then Zip, it's a bike, it was made for riding (although being a burner that might not be totally true).

Zippy · « **Reply #19 on:** May 04, 2007, 01:02 PM »

Because I have a nice old school race bike, in fact i have two of them now, the Aero Pro is just to sit and admire.

MeddlE · « **Reply #20 on:** May 04, 2007, 01:28 PM »

Nope, still don't get it. If I owned a bike it would get ridden, if it wasn't getting ridden then it would get sold.

Zippy · « **Reply #21 on:** May 04, 2007, 02:20 PM »

On the whole I agree with you but this is my one exception.

kdw712 · « **Reply #22 on:** May 04, 2007, 02:28 PM »

Don't forget to cling film the tyres

that hersden dust gets every where
into every nook and cranny

Cheek! I spent my youth on an aero pro burner that I customised for freestyle, it still lives today in someone's garage somewhere!! (Although I ride a Standard now, and do kind of agree!!!
