Post by: Munnyella on November 06, 2011, 05:26 PM: I don't normally comment on this sort of thread, one mans cheese, another mans onions... well something like that.

I'd rather go to prison than buy one.

I liked the repop choppers, I know the the H&S/Bull carp Raleigh went through to make it happen.

but why cancel it all out with this?

retro colours/styles on a retro looking bike, yep, ok

dog sick on a chopper, no way.

Post by: HEYWOOD BMX on November 07, 2011, 07:51 PM: Raleigh should just shut down.Everything they`ve put out over the last few years has been over-priced tat.Perhaps they`re in cahoots with SE Racing :daumenhoch:
Title: Re: wonna look like a c**K - well you will need this then !
Post by: Retrodan72 on November 07, 2011, 08:03 PM: A white Chopper could've worked imo although not a colour used BITD but that's gone way too far. :daumenhoch:

my favourite part of the listing...

"Deliveries Will have a tracking number and Can be Deliveried to an Alternate Address ( Relations, Work address Etc ), So you don't spoil the Surprise!"

someone's in for a treat :'(

and hopefully they will only ride it around in the lounge and not outside - which would spoil it for us ;D

Post by: theRuler on November 09, 2011, 01:00 PM: Shit back then, still shit today.

Had a temporary period of "coolness" in the 90's, until people realised once again, that they are shit.

In fact the new one has plumbed new depths of shitness.

Post by: BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN on November 09, 2011, 07:05 PM: bollocks ::) we all were going to club together and get you one for X-mas ;D

Raleigh seem to miss the target on most of there new born bike

old retro bmx's like the super tuff missed with parts and paint work

new school Raleigh bmx was a big miss

and the retro chopper was crap for the seat and gear change

and now to add insult they think kids will want it if they paint it shite colours :D :crazy2: :idiot2:

Most kids round our way had grifters before the BMX craze took off. Only problem was that the forks were very weak and snapped easily if you were fond of pulling wheelies or jumping. Raleigh should have used Strika style forks on the Grifter - they looked like Moto-X forks and had to be a lot stronger than Grifter forks. That would have been great. :D

Post by: rad_pitt on November 09, 2011, 09:46 PM: I can confirm that Choppers have become the chavs vehicle of choice round here :uglystupid2: I was in the post office yesterday and a scally polled up on one of the retro monstrosities. Perhaps Raleigh are catering for their target audience :LolLolLolLol:

The other extreme is the lesser spotted, lame dog:
