Title: My new rider Kos 26" Kruiser
Post by: In2 bmx on January 14, 2011, 11:21 PM
Spotted this on ebay last weekend and put a bid on it  .. I really didn't expect to win it  :shocked: but did .. It's been to my local pub the last two night's already , i only picked it up Wednesday. ;) 

Ive been speaking to    Mr God ( The Mod ) Bobafettish goose and it's a jan 82  26" mongoose Kos Cruiser ..  rides like a DREAM ...  And Cool as fook  8)  ..

After riding this beast i have to get a cruiser .. A Robinson 82-83 cruiser its my holy grail  ::)  if you've got one sell it . you don't need it  :LolLolLolLol::daumenhoch:
