Title: Team Curtis In The Eighties
Post by: Jamie on July 12, 2011, 10:15 PM

After my q's about the curtis frame it turns out that one of my mates has connections with Curtis, this is what he posted, just thought I would share(SOrry if this pic has been posted before) ::)

Quote from: bigbulli

Keith Meyers, my brothers father-in-law, part owned Curtis BMX. My sister-in-law Carie Stainsby (nee Meyers) and her brother Chris Meyers were in the Curtis BMX team. Here is a period shot of the team at some event in the 80's, Carie and Chris are the two kids on the outside of team.

Keith still has all the original jigs for the bikes a load of NOS frames and parts and tons of original frame sticker sets. He was approached by someone a couple years ago to remake the bikes but he declined to sell the jigs, he's a bit of a horder...
