No pics of it are springing to mind, I will have a think.
I think he is riding it in 'Cheese', the second Dirt Bros Video.

Vic RULES!

He might have done! He was calling Dan to get his DBTA out.

....saying that Partridge is a bit of a knob so I wonder what bike he would have ridden? mmmmm.....


...any guesses?

I think I asked this on a previous thread (and never saw the response), but what's the story behind Dirt Bros TAs?  Were they just re-stickered Skyways or did Dirt Bros make/sell them after Skyway stopped?

Eddie Roman was one of the OG Dirt Bros and he has 'connections' as Skyway, what with being and ex skyway pro. I dont know much about redline but they put the t/a frames with some tapered redline forks (that as far as 1" shafted forks went, were strong), and made a DBI f+f set. They went as far as selling them, but it wasnt like it was a capital venture, more of a movement.

Later DBI started making and selling their own frames.

Come on Rob, you never listened to Hip Hop?  :crazy2:

"Original Gansta". Which is probably quite apt, going on what I heard about the part of SD the Dirt Bros came from

So by the sounds of it you know more about hip hop than me ... Ive just seen other people write "OG" when talking about someone with roots in a paticular area and I thought it looked cool  :-[  ::)

Someone say green Dirt Bros?...



The steering tube on the Redline forks is tapered towards the bottom, very beefy, hence the ground down shafts on some mid school stems...

I'd expect the bars to be Bully bars.  Look a lot like Hoffman Patriots. Apparently very strong indeed.   :)
