--- Quote from: kuwahero on January 02, 2008, 02:44 PM ---when taking a short cut through the woods I came across a pile of dumped rubbish.
I instantly recognised one of the boxes as a Kuwahara bike box so decided to investigate.
On opening the box I couldnt believe my eyes :wtf: it was a NOS ET Kuwahara still in the packaging.

This was so totally amazing I sprinted all the way home. Jumped in the car and drove back to the spot as quickly as legally possible.
I was surprised/relieved to see it was still there. Then just as I was about to load it into the car...

















I woke up.  :LolLolLolLol: I wish, maybe one day the dream will come true

Up until thrn I'll have had to settle for ebay

mark 2:
I went to a local auction a few years ago with a mate who was after this lathe. There was a mk 2 Ultra Burner there , had £20 on me borrowed £50 off my mate just incase. I was the only bidder, got it for £2 plus 18p commision. Sold the frame on ebay for £70 and some the bits  ended up on my Ripper - mint gold Sugino stem, gold Dia Compe 890 brakes, plus left over had Araya Aero's with Suntour hubs, Sugino chaniring and spider all in ace condition, Tech 3's, good score for parts. Never had any other luck, biding my time....

nice one!

the only thing at my police auction is broken catolouge/toys r us mountain bikes left out in the rain by the police in a heap - so more broken.

They are worth less than the value of the metal, yet for some reason they go for around the same price youd get a nice bike of ebay for.

 :idiot2:

its so incredibly rare to get what you got, a raleigh with pimped out parts - still in mint condition. - Youd think it at least wouldve been stolen & thrashed.

bmxmatt1974:
got a mini patterson from the car boot couple of years ago for £8

didnt know what it was when i brought it but it had an sr stem, araya wheels with suzue hubs so had to have it.

been split up and sold on now
