I want to build a old school freestyle bike with nos parts and wondered what the aero reflex frame and forks are like plus what price i should go upto

they are a good quality cheap ride mate

they have gone up in price over the last 4 months or so, you could pick up a frame and forks for about £35 a while back but expect to pay about £50-£80 i think now.

good quality though and were damn expensive BITD when they came out, about 85 i think

lol i would'nt say junk.i always thought they were a nice frame set.
welds are well sewwt on em. but them fooking stands on the back are a nightmare.
sooner give a bit more and get a streetbeat though.nice and long.lovely old frame set as a rider.

my mate might be selling his chrome haro zippo f+f soon if you interested
they make a nice ride and arent as flexy as the old school frames
a set of master decals from del on here and they look as cool as penguin piss

imo heres mine zippo on the left

Last few nos 1s i,ve seen on ebay have gone for over £100

Mind you they were £129 in 1985 or something like that

So possibly the only frame to have gone down in value

i remember going up to alans and bought 10 of em at £19 a piece lol.

fozworth · « **Reply #11 on:** August 09, 2009, 12:55 AM »

So the bottom line is there ok buyt I'm probably better off getting a haro or something .can anyone list some frames that are old school come up from time to time and won't blow the bank

you could build a Haro Master (85 model) up for around £350 I would have thought,always loads of F+F for sale then just personal choice what you put on it,if you want something to ride used parts would be the way to go and obviously cheaper

reflex's are nice frames, its just the frame stands are a nightmare for catching your heel, nowt a grinder wont sort out

Gary72 · « **Reply #16 on:** August 09, 2009, 04:44 PM »
