Title: YES BMX
Post by: donut on April 12, 2012, 02:19 PM: HI, I HAVE A YES BMX... proper survivor, in complete condition, but a bit rusty...
can anyone give me some info on 'Yes' bikes, as there is very little info on the web.
always saw 'Yes' on clothing back in the day, but know nothing about the bikes...
Cheers,
Donut.
