I went there today to pick a few bits and bobs up.

He wouldnt let me take a pic of him but he did the shop.

It hasnt changed since the early 80's. Think of the stuff he must have hidden at the back of the shop in the pics below.

Look at the state of the place. Its the shop window FFS. At least make it presentable!

Proper old skool posters. Mike buff on a Ripper!

About 6 months ago i took a load of cruiser comp 3's and Araya skinnies off these shelves!

THE DUNGEON!!!!!! With loads of old skool gems hidden in there somewhere!

On the shelves are boxes marked, Dia Compe tech 3's, Redline and Shimano!

OLD SKOOL BANNERS. Will never sell them.

k'nell, i remember studying that picture of mike buff on a ripper in a magazine when iwas about 13,so it must of been 1981, i bet i still have it at my dads house as i havent been in my old bedroom for about 25years, theres probably loads of o/s stuff up there in the loft, it took me months of looking at to sus he was standing on his coaster brake, then, everone wanted coaster brakes....
