No, not when BMX was cheap ... when 90s S&Ms were! Ive got some frame that cos me nothing (after splitting them and selling on the parts I didnt want), and others I picked up for £20 after they ended with no bids, several times!

[perry]

ah i get it

like everything good it goes through a point where its out of favour and will be sold cheap due to other newer things being more popular

i guess s&ms have reached the point where they will fetch decent ££ to people reliving the past

i thought they all got ridden into the ground

i shouldave got a mk2 escort rs2000 a few years ago when they were all £2000 , now they are £5000    even 4doors are regularly at the 2k area

Alex, that stem and fork combo?  ''I really cant remember what I did with the forks and stem. They might turn up one day.''

did you by chance sell them to dave c ?  then did he sell them on to a rider in Banbury called garath? just that he had that combo and probably still does, he lives in Bristol now although from last I heard he hasn't riden for years!! I know his brother still lives up this way so could maybe get hold of him?

Ray, is that Garath with the brothers Graham and Dave?
I dont remember Crowman having them but he did work with Graham and Dave in broadrims so it might have been.

Either way, track them down, bud!

Well, so far the dudes at the Museum seem to be thinking that the cranks on the Menstrual might be Counter Measures(Fabweld).

Fabweld sounds right. But only cos Ive heard other people say it. Ive no idea what they are. The only time I have seen them is when people have been trying to say they are PAs (about 5 times).

The dude had pads too, ended early.

I made a bid on that Mk1 Holmes, so was p1ssed off it got pulled.

I've got a Mk3 Holmes and a DK General Lee in America, but want an OS race legal Holmes, as the OS races will be the only time I ride old/mid school bikes.
