I spoke with someone from moore and large a couple of weeks ago and they are very pleased with there 08 ns rides and he did intimate that a retro freestyler could be on its way. Has anyone heard about ACS drumming up interest in a potential z rim re release

I think there just trying to cash in on the old school market ..

But it takes the fun out of sourcing the original parts from when you was a kid , and puts in a dilema cus they are made by the original manufactures to original specs, but made this century .. so are they old school really ? $:-\$

Much as in many ways I agree with you, its unfortunately difficult to find any 'fun' in paying £300 for a set of cranks...

The new/old school releases serve a purpose where the original is just too damn expensive.
