Thats no tale ... he came in my sisters shop in Leicester and we asked him.

Its faulty
the pro neck is upside down ;D :LolLolLolLol:

Very nice bike indeed and super rare too but maybe a little over priced ??? but saying that theres a mint Nomura 24/26 over here so I wonder how much that's worth ^"^

Would I be really thick if I asked the question: 'What does 24/26 mean?' is it not either a 24" or a 26"?
It is a seriously beautiful bike though. :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

It is a nice looking bike, but that is stupid money, I don't care how rare a bike is $14,000 is way too much.
Especially when that frame has been re-anodised and has repop decals on it.

26 front and 24 rear, the OM started this off with a 24/26 OM flyer. Think it was a comfort / handling thing :daumenhoch:
-
iv'e never really liked these frames tbh.
but that one looks the bollox.
anything in black/gold looks 8)
-
Sorry, for a minute then I thought the price read $14,500.....
......... :wtf:
-
Cool looking bike but HOW MUCH :idiot2:
I know I'm a tight ar5e but that's just daft :uglystupid2:

You can buy 2 HLTs for that and still have enough change for a diet coke :D
-

-
Looks like a nice daily ... :buck2: and I think that unkleyoda is right ... the cranks do seem bit bent ;D

Even there toys are expensive ;D

You have a lovely pair Ash :coolsmiley:
-
Not even the biggest 'look at me' twat would pay that.
-
It's cheaper than Adam's Woody replica Trickstar cost to build though isn't it :-\ I could be wrong , I didn't hear direct from Adam :-\
As regards the Nomura cruiser ,it's same with any rarer collectable items whether it's cars, bikes etc .
Sellers/traders put a very ambitious price out there and then serious interested parties (obsessive lunatics :D) contact them with an offer at maybe 70 % of the asking price and negotions go from there ::)
In this case if it sold at 75% of the asking price , that would still be £6727 sterling :Great_Britain:
It's very expensive ,,,,but certainly not unbelievable that some collector who needs it :D would pay that ::)
But then you've got to pay postage :-\ and can you imagine the customs charge on that beast :crazy2: :LolLolLolLol:
-
It's a nice bike and rare too but if i was spending £10k on something with two wheels it would have a bloody engine in between my legs :D
-
I don't care how much this bike is.

They look crap.

They look crap.
Ash's look better covered in pipe insulation.. ;D
-
They look crap.
Have to disagree I don't remember nomura frames from bitd, I think if anyone said they did they may be telling porky s ,but they are stunning! Kind of a cross between a dy and a pk! :smitten:
-
To me they look a bit Toys R Us...

If that's what you think of nomura then yes ...no clue
-
I've never really liked these as I've always thought the down tube was too big for the bike but the bigger the bike gets (24" & 26") the more the big down tube seems to suit the bike and the better they look and this is no exception. OS goodness at it best. :smitten: :smitten:
-
I find it kinda funny he gets called out on the re-finished frame & repop decals , like he was thinking he'd gloss over those points ;D ( guys like Truly Odd , Greyboy and many others over there know their shit ) .
-
but it's original Matt.............well copied from the original ::) ;D :idiot2:

I was speaking to someone yesterday who has 6 Nomuras about this and the fact that this one is "original" but with re pop decals and new paint is a bit of a joke. Yes Mr Nomura raced it but that only holds a certain amount of weight and no way does it add that amount of $$$$$to the bike.
Agreed with those mentioned Matt, they really know what their onions on pretty much all things OS BMX :daumenhoch:
-

So everybody has to like it because its rare..? :crazy2: :idiot2:
-
i still think there fookin orrible but then again i dont like VDC for the same reason :uglystupid2:
never saw either of those makes bitd so mean nowt to me.
-
I used to have one they are OK but for the sort of money they cost nowdays I wouldn't have one again 8)

Same for me Dave, can't have love for ugly bikes that were nothing from my childhood. It's all about the money the last years, seems a lifetime ago buying my first old school bike in 2000.
I bet biagio is gutted, if hd had sat on all that gear for six years he would have quadrupled his money or more.
-
The bike's ok but the price...fookin stoopid. That said, its worth what someone is prepared to spend, I still remember the tale of Tom from Kasabian spunking 10K on a supposed MGM original ET Krapahara.
Turned out he bought a fake :Aresehole: :LolLolLolLol:
