Very nice Ammaco that mate. If you were to ride it, i'd say change the tyres over otherwise you'll ruin those lovely panaracers  :D

Gets ridden all the time. I used to stop every ten foot just to make sure my pool tyres were not getting trashed but I am past that now  :LolLolLolLol:

I have NOS replacements for all the rubber and things like the chain, cables, decals and seat so if I ever want to do it again I can





I even let other people ride it  :2funny:

Quality clip  8)  :daumenhoch:

Back on the original Q - I know what you mean with the "do I" / "don't I" ride it thing - I had a one of my geese i was riding round on decided it was too nice to ride so decided it was going to be kept nice with the others - bought 2 goose rider frames intent on throwing cheap bits on them bought the bits then decided to go with better bits sold the cheap bits and now i'm back to square one ;D fook it I'll probably ride all my bikes at some point (at least all the ones with tuffs or coasters)
- just stick some cheaper tyres on first and ride it ;)

Fella, you've got to ride it - I'm not saying chuck yourself out of an 8' bowl on it, but all the same, what's the point if you don't have a spin on it. I'd change the tyres though - they'll look shite after twenty foot down the road fella :'(

Every bike I've built I ride, including my Pro-Class and Team Mongooses, all my Haros and some others along the way. Oh, here's the bike I fractured my skull on last year in a concrete bowl without a helmet on, so get it ridden fella..... :uglystupid2:
