Hi,
Got this Yes Racing BMX 2400 I've had a couple of years. I remember Yes being around but can find practically nothing on them. Apparently (23mag) there's a review of this bike in BMX Bi Weekly Vol 3 Issue 25, anyone got a copy at all? I've never been able to find a pic of the complete 2400 cruiser so no idea what the original spec / geometry was or even what it looked like (don't think any of it's original even the forks are Akisu but they could've come on it I guess...?).
Anyway any help would be appreciated!
Cheers

That would be amazing if you can! I've been looking everywhere for that article for a couple of years, dunno why I didn't ask on here sooner!
Thanks for your help.

There was a little bike shop in a small town in north wales that until a few years ago still had the yes bmx posters on the walls of the shop. Im down that neck of the woods tommorow to visit my dad in hospital so will pop and have a look if they are still there, I was supposed to go down that way a few weeks back but didnt get a chance.

Cool. I remember Yes from when I was a kid but think they were only around for a few years, I used to have tons of the Yes racing stickers I got somewhere. Love to see a pic of those posters if you go by there! Cheers.

That's great, thanks so much for the scans, really appreciate it.
Interesting read, glad mine has only the original frame and forks after reading that!
Cheers

I got down to wales today wasnt until late on and the shop I mentioned was shut but i could see a marlboro bmx poster behind the counter and it still has raleigh brochures including a large (covers most of a door) and also a puch/agv poster. They are all heavily faded but intact, I need to get down there when its open and see what parts theyve still got if any cos the tyres and wheels hanging in the window look pretty old. I know they sold yes, raleigh, marlboro and puch now.

Cool. If you get in there sounds like you might find some gems!
