I strangely find myself agreeing with Ad on this one - not a fan of pads either
that TRM pad is a prime example (sorry dave), if I had one of those BITD that would have gone into the bin before I even had chance to fetch the reflectors off it
I do accept that they are functional though, as my old classmate darren wilson would testify after doing a big 'ET' style jump off a bank, only to land badly with his balls squarely on his unprotected stem  :shocked:

Also quite often prefer bikes with the decals off - obviously exceptions but a lot of really nice bikes have been ruined with shite graphics

That sounds like show ponys, not Bmx,s from the early 80's

For wot it's worth, I like to see a padset.  Nice finishing touch if it had em BITD.   :daumenhoch:

As I'm on one..... I also think a race bike looks unfinished without pads & a numberplate.  :yahoo_silent:
