Watching a few of his items - didn't realise the ebay user is Neil Subwax. He has a VDC Changa for sale too. Would love that  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

All that chunky tubing and the dropouts look about as strong as wet cardboard  :-\

Some nice stuff listed, can't believe someone's bid on these comedy cranks....

People go nuts for VDC and the like . I've had a few now and tbh one of the worst put together frames out there . Original chrome peeled ! I like nice welds not something bubble gum baz blobbed on .

I can't make my mind up with that gjs .i like fat tubing but that's extreme . I can imagine a fat rich kid racing one of those and doing the truffle shuffle on the gate

Those rear dropouts are terrible not in keeping with the rest of Frameset which I like.

He's been shifting some decent tackle over the last 12 mths or so. Is it his own collection or is it bikes he gets his hands on then strips for profit ?  ???

It's his own stuff. He built up an awesome collection by all accounts.

He's been collecting for a long time, met him at MK, nice bloke

Making good money off it now, i wouldn't wanna be paying his ebay/paypal fee's  ;D

No Niel's got a large hoard of quality stuff he amassed a good few years ago when prices were much lower (and has many contacts stateside), around the time we could all buy the likes of nos 85 masters for £135 from the likes of vertigo, Alans, skatepool et al.

He was a member on years years ago as well (subwax) and in my opinion is a top bloke. Did have a website but seems not to be working at mo.

What would be a typical price to pay for a vdc changa frame & forks in excellent condition like the one he's listed? Around the £800 mark or more/less? I'm not in a position to bid on the one he's selling, but it's something to think about for a future build once i've got my Hutch pro racer sorted.

You're prob going to need to double that

Just a shame its not a Changa Long. Loved my one and they are big enough to ride as a daily.  :smitten:

ouch! Would really love one though after seeing the ones belonging to Bubbs and Sam Meticulous at MK last year. I'd consider selling my pro racer to get one, and that is saying something.

 The BigTubes are tough and the rear drops ain't that bad....

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/ll466/pr200/024.jpg)

That and the Changa will go large (even though the BT is a little rough) hard to find at the best of times.

Not everyones cup of tea but I love love them both and wish him all the best with his sales, I may have a crack at a few things...
