Post by: glenboy on February 16, 2010, 08:40 PM: very nice , pk ripper was the first "proper " bmx i had in about 83-84, i sold mine at the end of the then bmx era probably 85-86, i wanted a proper looptail ripper for nostalgia purposes but couldn't find one with the bits i wanted on it so got a redline instead but still got a soft spot for the ripper , the name itself evokes some good memories and any one who was into bmx's in the day remeber pk rippers, very nice minimal build quality and not too bling :4_17_5:

I thought using Race Inc Cro Mo bars would set it apart, haven't seen a set before.

Post by: Zippy on February 16, 2010, 09:12 PM: Frameset was originally Stodgy's and to be honest even though I don't like the colour that much I just can't be arsed to go through the hassle of changing it. With the decals it has there's not really any other colour it can be. So I have had to follow all the other sheep I'm afraid. ;)

Post by: Zippy on February 16, 2010, 10:06 PM: I need to come up with my Azusa at some point o get that done Blue. It's going to be a while though because work is non stop for the foreseeable future.

Anyway this will go into the old school showroom of the shop as soon as I get round to doing the room up properly.

Post by: thecrooch on February 17, 2010, 03:10 PM: What they all said Si - tis a lovely build - the cranks and pedals do set it off and agree the Bars do look lush - take some pics without the pads though and we could see how lovely they are.....

looking forward to visiting the Hub once you are all up and running.....

Nope, not that one Dan... that was my OM Flyer.

Si's Ripper is the one that was originally Monkeybiscuits one...the color was matched to an early Ripper - so a bit lighter than the baby blue we all know nowadays.

But I think you painted it still Dan.
