When you've had a drink don't convince yourself you can still do cherrypickers ffs.
Lovely brit bicycle to own btw Paul, very quirky and different. Del's done a top job of them decals :daumenhoch:
-
I've been looking forward to seeing this one... Top build Paul... glad to have been of help.
-
good lad, but the questions have to be.
1, why did you wait 8 yrs? is this your holy grail, therefore forgiving any issues of buld /taste
2. explain to me your reasons of lusting after this particular bike.
must admit, it does it for me, but lets get into why.
-
cool mad vincent but 8 year s you wait and you put the cranks of the wrong side :LolLolLolLol:
-
I love it - not sure about the quality of the welding on the downtube gusset though :LolLolLolLol:
-

phil.
waited 8 years as i could never get hold of one the only one i ever heard of was the one bodamus had and true to his word he gave me 1st if he ever sold it. i love the mad 80's looking freestylers the forks are not correct but hey its the 1st and only freestyler by vincent ive ever seen there has been a few airzone's etc but never the freestyler.
the welds are not great but if i remember right these were terrible bikes bitd.
to be honest im made up though the wheel discs were for z rims so had to find some blue z's instead of tuffs thats the main reason the spokes are covered up.lol
-
arrr so you got my old baby then,did like that frame alot and you done a great job of it :daumenhoch:
-
i did matey i remember it was on ebay a guy in york if i remember

Looks good Paul, Im doing a white and orange airzone at the mo same as Rockys in one of the BMX Beats.

it was chrome originally but was quoted £300 to get it redone as it was fiddly.
berny vincent knows of it and was impressed it was still about ,i still have the letter if you want it.
