I got back into osbmx (for the second time) when I found a powerlite pro on eBay. The postage was more than the frame and forks. Great Frame,got three of them now.

I have a lovely set of powerlite bars (unknurled) on my 1980 supergoose, think they are a great looking bar, another item i think is a bit understated are DK square stems, a little on the skinny side on the clamping width compared to a tuf neck but the wedge grip can't be knocked, feels more positive when tightening than the tuf neck.

DK stems are the dogs :daumenhoch:

I don't think MRD Rickman and Curtis stuff was considered high end bitd . All the British stuff unless u had somebody like my Mother who recignised the great British :Great_Britain: engineering and quality workmanship and influenced me 2 buy my MRD bitd . Hence why they r sought after now .

One's in the Old School Race section and the others in BMX Chat - more through traffic in the Chat section. You'd get more replys in BMX Chat, but obv. better place to put it's in the OS Race.
I'm guilty of not checking any of the OS sections myself.

not by any means have I built every bike going but the best one I ever built and the best one I rode,which would have been considered low end bitd was my titan tx turbo,so smooth :daumenhoch:
