pk ripper stickers - opinions wanted
theRuler:
yep it looks nicer now!
sam hudson:
I like the blue decals on black.
Incidentally...i dont know how you dont like the new ones(its all personal taste).But they are 7005 Ali NOT cro-mo..Its a superior ali to the original Rippers.
As for them being too long..its great,i'm 5,11 and i can actually ride the thing comfortably.Ive got an 83 Ripper as well and its lovely but its diddy.
They are real Rippers,they are good quality and i think they are a great new bike...at least they dont snap like the old ones in several different places.(no disrespect to the wonder that is old Rippers).
I dunno maybe you are vertically challenged and feel scared of riding a bike that doesnt remove your kneecapsĀ on the handlebars ;D Ho ho
I think this is a great looking bike..if anything its probably too retro.
theRuler:
yeh they aint chromo, i misread the info on them.
i have never seen one up close, just in pictures.
i like the older rippers because they are short. mine is a kneecap cruncher!!
hopefully i will meet someone at a skatepark one day with a new ripper and i can have a go.
i'm not too tall though, and prefer a bike with a 36" wheelbase.
but i will give one a go, and will most likely form a different opinion!!!
i know what you mean about the retro look. mine (i believe) is a 21st century bike but looks like it's from the 80's
sam hudson:
yours is nice,i told you that already.R u going to keep it the same colour or are you gonna polish it?
I think it looks good in black. 8)
theRuler:
i was going to strip and polish it but i will run it as is. well until the black is fooked!
