Saw this on FB when that swan guy posted it up, IMO it's not as nice as Sean's. $:-\$

Each to their own I suppose.

Mighty rare but hideous (IMO) unless you were into Meccano as a kid. $:-\$

They serve as an excellent mini clothes line for Action Man uniforms.

STR1 fook we wish its a loopy quad but nice

kungfunky · « **Reply #11 on:** December 20, 2012, 08:44 PM »

If it's a 79 then it's an STR-1 ( not the 78 STR-1 Prototype ) they were re named the Quadangle in 80 after Stu left

antiquebmx · « **Reply #12 on:** December 20, 2012, 08:55 PM »

mm ok but we dont even know its a 79

any case its not what I think of an str-1

kungfunky · « **Reply #13 on:** December 20, 2012, 08:59 PM »

Agreed, even though the 79's are STR-1's the 78's are the REAL DEAL imo.

Yak. Worst bike ever

Fooking ridiculous price for that bike, I love Slingshot's but he really has ruined that one.

No Slingshot forks either, for that price I would want Slinshot everything, I had the forks and bars and sold it for a lot less.
