Not as iconic nor as good a ride as a Tuff Burner that's for sure

Can't disagree with this comment.

a Tuff Burner and a good ride are not 2 statements I thought I would ever see together! Maybe iconic but the odd geometry doesn't suit many people.

Pretty sure 99% of people would take a Changa over a Tuff Burner if offered the 2 as well.

Burners were never good to ride.

Have to say I had a go of a mates burner in the 80s it was new and the biggest pile of shite I've ever ridden , and he didn't have the bars set past vertical like most burner fools

Burner iconic.. Yes.. Better than a VDC.. Not on your nelly.. Only a burner made by tange could be raced. Think history would shows that.

no thanks

One of my bike was a knight burner. I loved that bmx.. But I must say it didn't ride as well as my higher end bikes I had. It not a dig at burner lovers. I still love a burner

I have Changan and a Burner

Love em both

both have bags of character for me

But which RIDES better, a One of Voris' finest or the blob welded mutant from Nottingham ? $:-\$

You don't need to ask

Now if you said a VDC against Team Murray or a Piranha

A Tuff Burner is an icon but a heavy pile of shite with terrible geometry hence the rediculous raked bars

If we're talking rarity? Tuff burners were ten a penny when we were kids........VDC? Never even heard of them as a kid let alone see one

I see your point , but its dangerous and most of all it looks shoite

Devilock · « **Reply #18 on:** September 28, 2013, 08:58 AM »

I would certainly like to own mint versions of a Super Tuff, Ultra, Aero & Team.

Peter J · « **Reply #19 on:** September 28, 2013, 09:10 AM »

I don't feel the love for VDC's yes they are rare but I don't remember them form BITD and I've never ridden one so cannot comment

A MK1 Super Tuff to me is Iconic

........but as a rider

They should team up against godzilla

Mk1 burner forget about riding. Mk2 ok for a trundle. Pro range i preferred to my TA's. Lovely colour schemes etc on the general halfords/catalogue range but realistically like comparing bitd ferraris to skodas.
