Title: Toby Henderson's Team Rampar BMXA cover nov. '79
Post by: RoyalTrux on January 11, 2012, 04:41 PM
I hoped to enter it for BOTY,
but parts came in slow from US with Xmas and all.
And recently I got in contact with Toby Henderson so still in the progress of changing some parts.
Should be ready for BOTY 2012 :coolsmiley:

Anyway I can't hold these pics back any longer.

Thanks guys!

Must have taken ages to get all that lot together,top job :daumenhoch:

About two to three months from when I got the frame.
Got real lucky on finding some parts.
f.e.: the Pro bars: googled and found old sales on bmxmuseum. Contacted sellers and buyers..
Some guys bought them to put on their Thrusters :)
And the frame.. I had a WTB on the museum. Half a year later I got a reaction  8)

What's the score with the different colour grips I wonder  :D

Thank God for the Pooly Sheriff!  ;)

Looks blinding, is the frame mongoose built?
Such a shame Raleigh decided to build pos in this country, could have been such a different story.

Well done mate :daumenhoch:

As I said on burnerworld Yannick you have done a blinding job on this mate.
It really captures everything you were aiming for.
Proper oldschool cool. :daumenhoch:

Sorry Tony  :angrysoapbox:
The models Raleigh UK released were just upgrades of the early US releases.
The pro burners Craig Schofeild & Mike Pardon were riding in the early 80's surpassed the Rampar R11 XL that Henderson used to replace this BMX products model.

The tuff burner , although not a race standard bike by any means, was the single biggest selling bmx in the UK.
The team aero pro didn't do too bad either, been good enough to win a world champion ship on.
