just picked up my holy grail . . . . .

[theRuler]

i have wanted one of these for such a long time. been looking for one for sale since i have been going on the internet - since around 97.
this one came up on ebay and i missed it 

but harris didn't, and he let me have it!!! 

finally, i have a fox 4styler.

it's completely original, the whole lot. except maybe the grips.





my wife looked at it, and said "it's shit".

well done mate quick trip .glad you picked it up ok all go smooth. :daumenhoch:dan.

[Sanmarcopizza]

I wish I had had a bike that was worthy of trying to re-create. I had 2 POS as a kid and have o intention of trying to replicate them. Nice memories though. So, the big questions. Are you gonna paint it white and have you got the wheel discs ?

[theRuler]

thanks dan

the bars were way forward, like in the ebay auction, but they were done up tight. it must have been ridden like that. lol. i think it was ridden by mr tickle

[theRuler]

So, the big questions. Are you gonna paint it white and have you got the wheel discs ?

yup you know it.

all i need is the GT wheel discs. i have the white tyres and aero zytecs

[silentpartner]

well done dan, bet you thought you'd never shift it 

i'm sure its very nice, if you like that sort of thing, personaly i like race bikes no ones heard of   

[MartyC]

Nice, you going to do it white like your old one then?

I say if you want it and it's within your grasp you should get it and do it otherwise you'll only spend the rest of your time wishing you had!  I've just bought my holy grail and am waiting for it to be shipped over from sunny So-Cal, it will need a lot more work than yours but I think it will be worth it 

Some will say it's a POS, but I have some photo's of how my one looked bitd and it looked pretty cool    I;ve got a lot of parts to source though   

[slowpoke24]

That's gonna be cool........looking forward to seeing it finished.

glad you finally got one gra.
i know he's been after one for a good while.
your a good man mr harris sir  .

[harris]

if its old school and looks it ,thatll do me, in my book they all have a place on hear .

[theRuler]

the fox 4 was really good for flatland due to it's low slung toptubes

not to be confused with the trm either - this bike had the angles right!

i thought i would never find one of these.

[daz bmx it!]

Excellent glad you got your HG bike and a round of applause for Mr Harris what a gent! respect young man,what a nice gesture

[Stodgy]

Ahhhh, so that's what it was Dan! Nice one - and good man for letting it go...top chap as always. 

Ruler - restore it to match your old one now fella, that'll look rad. 

[gmac]

I've said it once and I'll say it again: "Dan's the man"

yeh i wondered who's spot that. it wasnt deliberate!
the bike in the background is a KGB.
and the original was the quadangle!!

[jT Racing]

how heavy is it then? i like it's multi size cup holder though.

[theRuler]

its pretty lightweight
as a complete bike around 25 pounds

[Jazzchimp]

looking good, are you gong to turn it white?

[theRuler]

sure am

like it was bitd
