-
still toying with another old one,cant decide yet but before i would have been diving in head first without thinking
so chuffed to hell.
-
till today :buck2:
-
Hardly bought anything in the last 12 months, a frame and forks i'd wanted for ages, sold another as soon as it arrived.... one in one out
Some Colony lugged forks last week
Got 3 bikes built up and a few bits and bats i should get shut of
I don't want anymore, doesn't stop me looking in the for sale section :D
-
Bit of trading in and out, after quite a long lull.
Got a chrome laserlite to finish off, a black nova to build, a quad being done a diffent colour, and a pro racer than needs finishing, oh and a strip and rethink for the greyserlite.
Finished tweaking my gt pro, and need to take gen 2 profiles out of r gusset and replace with a nice one piece.
Only spent 500 quid on new bits to allow all that to happen, so a lot of bang for my buck, did have most of the stuff already though.
I like messing about with old school bmx's.. Bit of harmless fun and the lads/ craic on here seems to be getting back round to where it once was.
All good.
-
only thing i bought i the last few months is a pair of pedals & a revcore croozer f&f:)
looking for an early dirtbike to finish my collection :coolsmiley:

I haven't bought anything expensive for ages and I'm very pleased with myself too but I do want a JMC AP frame set and a set of VDC Freestyle bars.
-
and that fookin great big list in your sig haha
-
Ive given up . But still keep buying stuff :D like cook bros bars I'll now have to buy a frame for :idiot2:
-
I bought a Skyway TA this week but it arrived with a bloody crack in it - so I'm using that as an excuse to calm down. I've been selling bits I've not been using to fund other bits for builds, so I haven't really been spending much at all.
Building a new school (ish) bike to take up my trails and possibly looking for something mid-school as I miss my tank of a dirtbike.
But I think I'm done building ponies.
-
The price of stuff at the moment is daft :idiot2:
I only buy stuff thats either cheap or dirt cheap
TBH I'd even haggle over free stuff ???
-
Stopped buying stuff years ago as theres nothing I like :'(
-
Was averaging a bike a month for 7 years, calmed right down, bought one bike in last 2 years.
-
Not been a good boy at all of late :-\
I seem to have a real mental month or so ,,,,every 4 months
-
other than a few bits to finish off my mid school bikes iv'e not bought nowt old school for ages.
i can see me selling all my spare bits before much longer and poss 2 or 3 bikes that iv'e lost interest in.
more interested in doing my v dub van up and get my bug sorted tbh :).
still after a s&m holmes though if i see one lol.
-
I would like to buy........ but there seems to be very little out there worth having :(
-
Sold most of mine over the last 2 years only got 5 bikes left now.
Don't buy much either as most of it just seems over priced to me :-\

Come and talk to me when you do, your stuff IS worth buying :)

That's different, all of those parts are needed for particular builds. So apart from those too I am doing well. >:D
-
Nope........always on the look out for bits i NEED ;D
As for signitures? fook that, i turned those off years ago....got fed up with having to scroll through hug pictures and shyte that used to bring my PC to a grinding stand still :angrysoapbox:
-
I am surprised how much stuff I have brought this year

I just buy colourful bits & respray existing bits at the mo.
Changing one of my bikes into a mid 80's everycolourbastard for the upcoming Radchester shindig.
-
I got back in to the old school bmx scene last december,
15 bikes, 3 frame and fork sets since then.................................. :uglystupid2:
-
I slowed up a hell of a lot but lately after saying no more builds I seem to be buying again :-[.
-
I am prob having my worse year ever :LolLolLolLol: wallet is well empty :2funny:
-
I sold my baby blue Quadangle last week very very cheaply and i'm probably going to split my M'goose this weekend. I've also sold some NOS Anlun bars and a fair few number plates recently.
Bought..... A Profile Champ F+F set and that's about it in the last year i think.
-
ive retired. . . . . . . . . .
thats why i only blew a grand last month :LolLolLolLol: :idiot2:
-
I've enjoyed riding new & old school that much in the past 12 months I've sold loads of stuff.bought a few choice bits along the way as well,but more interested in survivor stuff these days as I have to ride my bikes.all my nos and mint stuff is either gone or going shortly as can't justify show builds anymore.....especially when I would like a new school custom build & new mountain bike :)
Will come Back to building show builds when I can't ride anymore :) lovin it :2gunsfiring_v1:
-
Got a laserlite on its way.. Wooo hoooooo. Wife don't know though :10_2_12:
-
Had a few bits for a build that went t1t$ up so now waiting for something else to come along. :daumenhoch:
Given myself a £650.00 budget for a complete Diamond Back so we'll see what comes up.
Oh and everything I've seen is in the blummin states. :(
-
I've been good recently, although still buying bikes, I'm buying new school stuff locally and selling it locally, so actually making a little money, bought nothing for myself for ages
-
Not bought a lot really, total contrast to last year, only the odd bits for my neighbours bikes and a NOS dominator for myself recently, otherwise concentrating on finishing my nos 1985 White master with all nos bits which will be completed in a week or so when I can get off my arse.
-
I have been buying loads of parts for two custom built mountain bikes in the last few weeks.
Mountain bike parts are fooking mega $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ :LolLolLolLol:
