Another... ***ROBINSON AMTRAC***
« on: July 14, 2009, 07:58 PM »
Well I thought I was lucky when I got hold of my first Robinson Amtrac (courtesy of Zippy).

Its been my race bike since the Winter '07 race series... and I absolutely adore it.

Last summer I (along with a few others) got the sniff of a NOS F&F's that Jai Kemp sold at MK'08...
after many a PM and chat with generallee I am now the proud of owner of my SECOND Robinson Amtrac...   :coolsmiley:

The Frame & Forks are 1992... so in some sections of the BMX world this is Mid-School...
but I have dressed this baby as an Old School beauty... (with the exception of the modern redlines).

Huge thanks go to: generallee and firebird (as always!!).. thanks fella's.

























These are a very rare model and I have only managed to locate half a dozen examples in the WORLD. So I consider myself to be VERY lucky to own TWO!!







It wasn't until tonight that decided to check the Serial No's on these two... how close is this!!!

RED VERSION - Frame No. 05920083
CHROME VERSION - Frame No. 05920086

That's a nice pair of Robbo Amtracs, Dave.  You can't really get much better than those for racing OS on.
