Greetings,
Just out of interest, what bikes are you using for your everyday rides and how old are you?
The reason I ask is I am in the market for another old skooler and I am now officially over the hill at 40 and wanted a bike I can get away without looking a complete twot.
I sold a Haro Freestyler Master two years ago and am now regretting it.
Kind regards

38(special) and ride a new skool Kuwahara 24" Cruiser & a '92 20" Kuwahara Champion when I get the chance. Else it's a mtb, which is why I find my 24" BMX the most accommodating I guess, but the 20" is great on track too cos it's got a long top tube. The older 80's bikes feel way short but they're fun and isn't that the point of this? I get to laugh & so do my kids! Whatever you ride you adapt to if you give it enough time I reckon...

41, regular covers-all-bases ride is a Standard STA500 Ox. A bit heavy (with front & back brakes, 4 pegs, a full-length seatpost and no titanium parts) but indestructable.
There's also a Skyway StreetBeat for tootling around on, if the mood takes me. Love that bike.
Might build up the 'Dan Galf' someday if I ever get to ride the trails near the Out-Laws' place, it was a pretty good frame as I remember.
