I have just secured a super deal on a 1983 'survivor' in beautiful condition. I shall not name the bike or the parts on it but, looking through the wanted section, I know most if not all the parts would be swallowed up by members on here.
The question is though, should I or should I not split it :-\
-
Only you can answer this Tel, its your bike.....
-
True Robbo but I only really need a certain part from it for something else :daumenhoch:
-
If it's a nice survivor, it would be a pity to split it IMHO :(
-
It is yer but I only need the ........ from it :coolsmiley: The rest, apart from the chainring, is original to the bike and in great condition to be honest.
I really need the ........ from it though and have no use for the rest :-\ It will just be sitting in my garage :(
If no response to this, I will prob just pass it on complete :(
-
If it's just a valve cap your after, I can send you one FOC :daumenhoch:
-
Tel, stop being a prick tease and tell us all what it is.... :LolLolLolLol:

+1 come on Terry... ::)
-
split it mate - you will not be put in the same boat as the splitters
-
What's wrong with splitting a bike now?
-
unless its something that is rare and desired as a complete survivor take what you need off it and split it. tell us what it is and we can decide for you ;)
-
do what you want with it if its your bike?
-
Okay, well....It's an E.T and I just need the wheelset :daumenhoch:
-
as said its yours to do what you will with but hardly anybody would split a survivor et to be honest , you can get the wheels easy elsewhere , i'd keep it and get the wheels elsewhere and if you sell the et's are one of the few bikes that go well as a complete

Dude, I have struggled to get Black speedlines with HF Suntours for a while now and no-one is giving them up. I can't even get the HF hubs except at ridiculously over-inflated prices :(
-
lets see it then.
get some pictures up.
-
so what happened to the ukai speedlines with the high flanges you dibbed over on the museum a week ago ? if its an ET shout me with some prices if youre splitting

As you can see, the hubs are not HF :( :(
-
yep must have been those...were they worth the price you paid ?
-
Defo worth what I paid for them :daumenhoch: They are in really good condition for '83. Gonna have the sidewalls 'shiny sided' and touch up the little line around the hub :coolsmiley:
I just needed HF hubs really and no luck in trading these yet :(
-
ill take the hubs if youve no need for them
-
Try and sell it complete, shame to split a nice survivor.... :(
It's your bike though so it's your call
-
if you are keeping both bikes - take the wheels off the et and put the set on it will the low flanges.
get the new build as you want it and wait for a while and the hf will come up to change them back.
best of both worlds.. 8)
-
I'll have the f&f if you split!!?
-
::) you would just swallow eh john :D
:LolLolLolLol:

Agree with Terry here.
I haven't come across many people having a problem with splitting tbh.
The only time I have seen any frowning about it are when it's done purposely day in day out as a business.
-
just don't go all 'ebay' and split the frame from the forks ::)
-
stick a set of skyways on it!!!!!!!! E.T didnt have a bike so it dont matter only elliot had a kuwi kz1 ;)

couldn't agree more... :daumenhoch:
When its quite obvious the passion is buried in their wallets... and not in BMX.

I get wound up myself when I see frames being sold without their fork too so I certainly wouldn't go down that road :daumenhoch:
-
Can I dib the forks please
And left hand part of the front caliper
And the 4th chainring bolt
And the E from the et sticker
The right pedal
And the basket that holds Elliot please
I love it when someone splits a bike up!!

Good to hear that a proper bike such as this is not being split 8)
-
Thought Terry got the wheels.. Thats split Isn't it?? ???
-
Poochy Poochy Poochy, I have the wheels from the Kuwi on the museum :daumenhoch: Sweet as but the hubs are low flange, be them all original and dated July '83 and all :-* but I would like High Flange Suntours and thats
what this E.T has :daumenhoch: So I'm probably gonna strip the hubs from the wheels off the E.T, replace with these hubs and do a deal with The Kap for one of his freestylers as I don't do race type thingy's :LolLolLolLol:
-
:LolLolLolLol: mmmmmmmmm Terry you know i'm struggling to part with a freestyler so as said CASH ::) for the crappy race bike ( as you so nicely put it )
