Title: Rockit xl?
Post by: lk_97 on August 12, 2011, 04:00 PM

Just remembered something, I was looking through my freestyle bmx magazine, and I saw a competition to win a Rockit XL, something like that, I don't know whether it was the picture but it looked seriously weird, anyone remember it??

Ah the old Henk Vink Rocket X1, famous for the bottom brackets falling off of them.  I still love them though..

My first Mk, someone had one nos in a box, year after it was built up and looked amazing...

I remember reading about them as a kid in rad and bi- weekly....

Cool thing if not a touch, err, fragile.
