Post by: James Nada on March 05, 2011, 09:41 AM: I reckon if it's not New School it's Old School.

Old School then has different era's within it: 70's (aka Vintage), early-80's, late-80's, 90's (aka Mid)...

So what's New School? Dunno. 2000 to 2011?

By my system your bike is Mid!

Post by: WINI on March 05, 2011, 10:02 AM: I think this has a lot to do with your age. If you were around in the 'golden age' then I think old school is from when bmx started thru to late 80's. if you're a young un, 10 years ago is a long time ;)

You cant draw an exact line, but I reckon 70's/80's old school, 90's mid and the rest new. Just my opinion though

Nice! Those look like the original forks too

yep... pretty much NOS with a few chips here and there - never had wheels in it.

To be honest I would have paid £150 for the frame and no forks! but to get all I got for that money I'm well happy.., ROb gt_lover got me a deal :4_17_5:

Post by: Munnyella on March 05, 2011, 01:43 PM: I'd say Mid, my theory is -

Old school, when I rode, up to about 1990
Mid when I didn't 1990 - 2002
New when i did again 2002>

But what do I know, its a very vague area, like my life!!!

Looks gay anyway!
