They were made by a bloke from Milton Keynes and he gave one to Ron at the Kellogg's. There werent many made, and I cant see many of them being left. Most of them were all hand painted, with patterns on them.The guy behind Sly Fox went on to start Deathbox skateboards, which changed the name to Flip. In the early 90s Flip took over the US Skate scene with a mainly British team. He now lives in California, and is MINTED!

It looks like he found a road frame with a built in seat clamp and cut the top of the seat tube off. Something that I have actually done in the past to make a clean looking seat clamp.
pics dude pics
(Well, kinda. A mate of mine has got one, and its on a bike in my shed)

ooo the anticipation, are we gonna be disappointed like the holeshot thread
Here you go.It really is a very simple clamp. This one is orange, with white dots that are black outlined.I ALMOST got one once. I came 2nd in a contest at Mons Ramp. First prize was something good, and a Sly fox clamp, 2nd was some awful race gear (that I never used), and 3rd was just a fox clamp. At the time I wished I had come 3rd!
