:-[ :LolLolLolLol: So Clive, where's this bike shop of yours? Carrying any o/s stuff or getting any retro n/s stuff in at all?

my shops in Poole mate, www.bikelab.co.uk
I'm building a couple of bikes for mates but i'm relatively new to this collecting lark, i just want to get these build finished (TA and hopefully JAG cruiser for Darren Wood) and the Patterson for wee Tommy Lynch, the nicest person in the world! Then i'll do an OS build for myself (09 hopefully as that was when I got good on a BMX!) plus I have my US built ripper and floval as my newish school rides.
I've got some stuff kicking around, going to do a big clear out, nothing amazing though....i sold all my good stuff to biagio about 5 months ago without realising....

For those zeronine buffs out there, just got an email from Owen Scheppman (founder of 09) regarding frame styles and timelines:
The history on ZeroNine frames as I can best remember. I could be wrong on some of this stuff, so if you disagree or wish to ask me more questions I would be most happy to discuss. I wish I had a memory card available, back in the early 80's we were lucky to own a computer.
Frame History:We started by having them made by Joe Martino at CycleCraft in Tennessee. He made about 150 sets for us. I believe CC made us white, black and chrome, they were called the "mid" and "pro". It later became apparent that he wouldn't be able to keep us supplied. So we started looking around for another supplier. The second wave of frames were made in Taiwan. We re-designed the decals with the cafetti shapes on all 20" Pro, 20" ProXL and 24" Pro Crusier. These 20" were sold in Chrome, White, Black, Blue and Red; the 24" were Chrome, Black and White.
Complete Bike History:We designed the Freestyle Bike and had a complete 20" bike made in Taiwan in the colors, White, Red, Blue and Black not sure if we made a chrome one. Roger Worsham of CW built the freestyle bike for us in Taiwan at his contractors factory.
