Only 250 limited edition framesets will be available worldwide. Made by True Torch in Santa Ana CA, the limited edition Eddie Fiola EF frame is just that, limited and there will be no second production or third production. It comes with a limited edition CD featuring all your favourite hip hop electro breakdancing acts from the 1980"s and a free plastic banana to commemorate the man himself!!

We recognize that while this will be applauded by many it will be equally frustrating to others that cannot get their hands on one but this is the nature of limited items such as the EF freestyler.

Keep your eyes open for our new website, shortly to be followed by an ""Exclusive mailing list"", (or is that ELUSIVE mailing list) followed thereafter by a Looooooong wait for us to get back to you whilst we throw darts/wait for continents to drift apart/wait for the sun to go supernova. Remember, there are a few people (that have the retail price of $3,000 plus shipping plus taxes) that we think are worthy enough to send their money to us who we may get back to. If we can be bothered.

Forgot to add. It is also available in Yellow!!

I don't get it. If it was made by GT with Eddy then I could see some reasoning behind the project, but this is a just Knight knock off money spinner.

...and as for those wheels, limited to 50. I've heard that one before from Skyway. Then again, they are shit so probably won't sell in any great numbers.

I wouldn't say GT are crap. The current Pro Series race frame has been used by many top riders. I'd put them in the same pot as Haro and they did a great job of the Freestyler frame set.

I'm it'll be a sell out.

I would steer well away from V-brake/990 mounts if I was re-issuing a classic!  Eddie has made the frame bigger....with new school geometry....but has forgotton one crucial element!  The original didnt have those brakes BITD and today....nobody uses brakes.  So to manuacture it how it was originally intended would have been a far better idea in my opinion, the removeable lugs just add to the cheese.  He would have been better off allowing people to fit repop calipers to aid the slowing process  :daumenhoch:
