Went to MK but didnt realsie he was there in person! Great to see a couple of top Curtis bikes at first hand. Gasheads Expert was an absolute stunner.

Post by: moochalargo on August 05, 2010, 12:57 PM: I got my Curtis exp frame only for £65. I've just paid £400 for the crank set lol. Enjoy your build and blame the greedy folk at Bmx meetings for the prices of stuff. Wish I wanted to do this 10 years ago as it was all worth nothing back then!

I now have every part for mine, a couple still travelling in post vans to my door, chromers should be done with the frame n bars next week. Can't wait to build but then when it's done I'll be lost lol. Then build 2 starts I guess lol

Post by: curtispro on August 05, 2010, 01:05 PM: Mines all stripped out now, got to send to the chromers, need wheels though, the Araya 7X's that were on it are propper fooked, parts are arriving daily, the missus is not impressed!!!! (could have got a brand new one for that price) The bike cost me nothing as it was mine BITD and was given to a family member and "dug out" for me 2 weeks ago :4_17_5:, was going to do it as a survivor but seeing some of these on here has made me want to restore it back to original :LolLolLolLol:
