Got to ask what i'm missing here mate - thought Ruption was a low end company and i can't see any good parts ? 

[kev-s]

they were a low end company but they were first bmx's for quite a few people, remember seein loads of em in 95-96

£55 (u will get it for £45-£50) is a good price as its has original forks bars and stem, seen frames go for £30 on there own

if he advertised it on retrobike im sure it would be snapped up

[BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN]

I'm gonna pass Kev mate - i kinda know what you mean on retro but it's been a bit quiet of late

do you know what those redline cranks went for in the end ?

[kev-s]

i didnt hear anymore about em, just searched completed items on ebay and they didnt end up on there so i presume the guy still has them or they have been sold elsewhere

[stuntmaster]

forks look s & m

[Dannywhac]

Yep - them forks are a set of S&M Ditch's.............

[kev-s]

dont think the forks are ditch forks, ruption copied the ditch fork design

[Dannywhac]

dont think the forks are ditch forks, ruption copied the ditch fork design

Looking through me Rides though they're not the OG forks to that model bike - just made me think they were SnM

[kev-s]

they could be ditch forks but im pretty sure ruption did copy the design, guess the only way to know is see them in the flesh

[Dannywhac]

Didn't Dragonfly copy the design n'all? Seem to remember a mate of mine having a pair

[kev-s]

ahh maybe it was dragonfly then! i remember someone copying them, was sure it was ruption but maybe not!!
