the green holmes isnt a bad price at £120 but shipping would prob be another £50 to the uk, these frames will only go up in value as time goes on imo

and the next gen for £250 for it complete isnt bad too

i agree i think 120 is more than fair for a bike of that quality the yellow one may be slightly over priced but the green one is worth it..
if it was on rad i would have dib dobbed it 1.1/8th holmes are quite hard to get hold of

darkersomeday · « **Reply #3 on:** December 04, 2008, 03:20 PM »

the yellow one is a next-gen

bmxbert · « **Reply #4 on:** December 04, 2008, 04:07 PM »

i like the riding position of it and as i cant seem to find anything else to go with the new green NG holmes i was going to look for one of them

the bike is ready to build but want either a front loader or an invert for it, i cant get an early redneck at the moement, so im looking for something else while i hunt for that

aaah thats nice int it..... good old bmxers looking after each other

That is one of the very first clamp on rednecks.

You can tell cos the edges of it are really sharp. Soon after this they rounded them off.
The other change was that the later ones had a cut out on the under side for gyro clearance cos the first ones hit.

GINGERHOLMES · « **Reply #15 on:** December 05, 2008, 08:48 AM »

sounds like that would be perfect Bettyswallocks, its got to be worth trying to sort out

how much do i need to send u? i'll drop u a PM

cool, i have 2 of these, one is polished and on my holmes, the other has been butchered by someone, they drilled out one side of the clamp on part and put smaller bolts in and nuts on the other side and whilst they were drilling they managed to crack it on the top and also sanded the anodise off really badly, shame as its only good for a paper weight now
