Post by: oldschoolrb on January 19, 2012, 07:50 PM
im not really in to building show stoppers carpet queens , im like the fact when i throw something together it goes round a track well for fun/to the pub or just out with my two boys , i didnt feel to good on a 20 at first so tried a 24 and thought thats the way for me ,, untill i rode my 1983 supergoose round crewe !! then iv just got a newish 20 quadangle and it feels well sweet  :daumenhoch:

I bought a 85 Haro Sport for some bits and hacked it around on the London Cruise before Xmas and have to say i was well impressed with the ride.

But my TA is the nicest rider i have had, nice length (for me) and still feels solid and dependable.

But I only ride it round at work if I'm bored, & once a year pished up round Radchester, so I dont suppose you could really call that proper riding.

Sorry Ric, yes it's waaaaaaayyyyy nicer than an '83 Super but I've only ridden it in a skatepark, not on a track :-\ :-\

Oh, speaking of tracks, my 1983 ProClass went round the track at MK 2 years ago, but not in anger, only a steady stroll :2funny:

Anyway, my MRD Badlander is the greatest o/s ride I've ever owned, and I've ridden all of my bikes :smitten:

imagine and old school hutch frame that was documented in video and magazine that was owned and ridden by tinker juarez or itson etc,

and its the only one in existance,full custom job,

and the build, titanium everywhere, sponk polish and bike jewellery,

most of all its mine i guess.

Horses for courses,

There is no other pedal that would suit the chunkiness of a VDC better than the Bullseye Bigfoot's (IMO), they work well too.

(or is it coz they're one of the rarest pedal sets and you haven't got any ^"^)

Starting to get the new S&M the way I want it after upgrading my old Fit series 2 which was way too small for me. A nice big set of Hoffman Bama bars and a set of Profiles from Diggler last year. Needs a new brake setup and eventually I'll get rid of the rear wheel but all in all I fooking love this bike already!  :daumenhoch: Cheers to General Lee Steve for letting it go ;)
