call me a thick cnut

why are the others called PK rippers and the red one is just a RIPPER

been a around this hobby a while now - am i missing summat ?

It's a smaller version of the full size Ripper but still takes a 20" wheel ... basically there is no head tube gussett, the top tube and seat tube are shorter and the bottom bracket is lower

Is it the original paint or powder ... might be worth stripping it first to make sure it's not been media blasted

testament to that frame though is that the kid was racing it up to 3 days before i got it. he was sooooooo happy to have a new bike instead of that old shite

same with the jmc i got, the kid was using it forschool and wanted one of those sit up and beg dutch bikes instead

dutch

Very nice indeed Mr P

jT Racing · « **Reply #34 on:** June 29, 2009, 01:51 PM »

had some nice bits.
mcs mini stem, front loader. very rare indeed. sunshine hubs, the very early ones on thin as fook ukais, tange mx 5 headset, race inc bars and a super seat

looked a treat

thought i wouldn't have a go though seeins as the stem as a 80lbs rider limmit.

even if it was 8okgs it was too little

the kid did admit to taking his pedals and seat and wheels off and putting that old shite back on

thank fook he did!

I remember those photos John and I'm surpised how that 7/8" post even fitted the seat tube

thankfully, there was no damage though

Someone on here recently said I could probably polish a turd but I reckon I've been there and done that already

just awesome steve, is that the right se red ? i know a man with a can

I never intended it to be the right candy colour Pete ... just something nice looking and almost edible

I now have warm sticky stuff in my underwear....

I know I don't know a great deal about all the bikes I see on here but I know when I like a bike and, for me, the Red/Gold ROCKS!

Would love to see this in the flesh if ur going to MK and taking it...

I'm feeling rather envious and demotivated/embarassed over my first attempt at building up my Torker Freestylist and Skyway Street Beat. They just ain't anywhere near this league

That goes for loads of other bikes I have seen on here, of course. They're all great
