It does seem pucka, i'll watch BMX Beat this week and verify. :daumenhoch:
-
If it is, would be nice to see it restored :coolsmiley:
-
Pepi was always one of the standout riders on bmx beat for me, and one of the reasons I got into bmx bitd :daumenhoch:
-
Hmmm...actually looks and sounds right!like the story and the S w stamp.Would be great to see someone on here restore it.Pepi ruled bitd :daumenhoch:
-
I've got one of his plastic key fobs in a drawer somewhere. Is that worth owt? :D
-
Anyone going to have a pop then...?! ???
-
What do you think this will go for then ???

Should bring good money, as a kid I remember seeing him at the Sands in Carlisle but when he was 19/20ish
he called at my parents house.......selling double glazing ;D
-
Does anyone have any pics of him riding this bike , would be good to see it done right :daumenhoch:
-
The guy might believe it was pepi's and I dont doubt frank might have said it was one of Pepi's when his dad purchased it, I know what happened to pepi's bikes and none of the ammacos ended up back with frank mumberson.
-
I only ever seen him on a vincent (?) BMX Beat with Gaz Top, Rich Segur, Andy Shohara series.

He rode for Ammaco before Vincent,look at earlier bmx beat footage! :daumenhoch:

I think the provenence is BS. NO email and a mobile number. SW on a crank arm?? im certain ive seen that stamp somewhere on a crank before and not because its someones initials. Can anyone put me right please?

The S W is stamped under the bottom bracket (shown in one of the pics), not on the cranks. ;)
Might there be someone on rad who rode with pepi bitd who would be able to verify this frame?
Would have a go at it myself if I hadnt just forked out a small fortune on mountain bike related stuff :'(
-
Cheers, that musta been on when Rumbalows were fixing our colour telly.

I did from the very beginning when he rode a ultra burner we both rode for the local bike shop and then ammaco together, trust me its not one of his bikes.

Thats bad. Its alright milking a story but Pepe? Nah... No likey.
-
so its not Peps bike then ?
-
Well this should be interesting ,just got in off nights to find ive won this fair n square for £190 so quite pleased at that till i checked my messages and found one of them is a case opened by him to cancel my purchase transaction :wtf: am i supposed to do now :( anyway ive ignored it and pm'd him when can i come and get it , already dont like the sound of this but lets see what happens , also ive not paid its cash on collection , fingers crossed its all ok !!
-
Good luck fella
-
Good luck mate.....was gonna have a bid on this myself as Pepi was my hero bitd..
Looks like he thought this was gonna go for mega money.
All the best, Steve.
-
He prob thinks its worth mega bucks,theres an identical frame on there at £51 so far? not Pepi's but was this one anyway? ???
-
That S W didnt look right. The other letters stamped in look original with pitting in them, the S has no pitting as if it had just been done. I use to postcode bikes bitd and the day and over time the corrosion cracking happened. You had to twat the punch hard on the bb.

I would have refused it mate, teach him a lesson as now he'll get his fees back
Pisses me off this sort of thing, if he had a price he wanted then put it on buy it now or offers....or put a reserve on
-
you should have told him he has a legal obligation to sell it to you as you won it fair and square and if not you'll pursue him through the courts :daumenhoch: fooking time wasting little cnut :tickedoff:
