Those Fred Blood ones are more Turquoise than Green, they did do a proper green set.

I originally bought them for my 1985 neon blue Haro sport but when they arrived the colour was just to out so I settled for lime green tuffs. So now they are just an object that I masterbate over every now and then :-*. The problem is that no other components come in the same colour so what do you do with them apart from a custom build which I dont want to do really  :-\ Ive only seen one other set and that was on a Kuwahara Exerbitionist and he made that work if I remember rightly. Infact its probebly in the museum somewhere, give me a minute.............

Meanwhile back at the ranch.............................I think your'e right, they are crap rims and would look crap on anything so you should dump them mate, they're no good, However, in order to recycle as much as possible in our cluttered world you should sell them to me for £20, just to cover your petrol when you deliver them to me :LolLolLolLol:

What are you riding on the London ride?, why don't you ride Micks Aero? :LolLolLolLol:

That Kuwahara is gorgeous, is that your TA you had on the last ride?, are your Zs for sale?, are your Graphites for sale?, if they are original Green tuffs and not new ones are they for sale?, is your Forklifter for sale and is your DP for sale? and what do you mean by 'Greedy'?

 :LolLolLolLol: :2funny:......You are a funny f*cker Adam  ;D

1. Agreed that Kuwahara is georgeous
2. Yes that is the TA I had on the last ride ( looking how it does when its sitting on carpet )  :D
3. No my Zs are not for sale
4. The graphites ar'nt for sale
5. They are 1985 n.o.s lime tuffs and they are not for sale
6. The n.o.s forklifter isnt for sale
7. The DP is not for sale

But my nan's arse hole is... £29.78 per hour. Not quite n.o.s though :-\
