I have to say that I prefered it in it's original guise, but then again, I don't ride my old school stuff.

I've just taken delivery of a Rickman. Not only is it the first one I've owned, but it's the first one I've seen close-up. All I can say is that thay look to be a great frameset. Mine certainly appears to have had a lot of abuse and everything still looks straight.

Looking forward to completing mine (in the distant future).

By the way - want to sell those Action Zone bars and DX pedals?

lookin cool dude, built as a bike should be, as you use it and mould it to your needs, but preferred it with the white bars myself.

Phil,

If Rickman had made that bike just like that they would have sold shed loads!!! Much better now you've made changes to the forks and cut that crap off the back. You should now make the Decals funky and new school.......................................

"The man has rid the world of a clothes horse and done good!.................Let us rejoice this minor moment of sanity and pray others follow this path"

I like it :)

If ya gonna ride it dude, you've done the right thing! Pete (Quadrophenia) always puts Primo Walls on his old rides and swears by 'em...also, can't beat a pair of Evolvers to do the stopping!

Not purist, but good work dude!

Dordy - make sure you go for a 2.1 up front and a 1.85 at the back...I went for two skinny ones at first and it was too twitchy.

I now run a 2.1 Primo V-Monster up front and the 1.85 Wall on the back - perfect IMO.
