Postman dropped this of today. Came all the way from the states and I managed to avoid customs as well :)
Paid 120 for it which included shipping.
Never had a Torker before and have wanted a twin top tube freestyler for a while. I believe it is a Torker 280 air and it is a Torker 2, which is not as desirable as the earlier Torkers.
Any info would be good, it was advertised as a Torker 280 so would like some more info. Cheers :daumenhoch:

It is well worth looking out for frame sets on bmxmuseum, although I find not many are willing to ship to the UK. In this case the seller wanted $150 and would only ship to the US, so I emailed him and told him I would give him $230 and that sweetened the deal.
I am planning to have this as a rider, powder on the frame is verry good, but will have to have the forks re done. Thinking of a blue and black and gold, bit like the PK ripper, not sure what colours to get the decals done in though :)
