Including both stock race and freestyle bikes with catagories like, style, speed, durability, radness, price etc which bike do you think would be the lamborghini countach of the pack, ie which would be the one card you would always want to have in your stack given all the variables
Ignoring personal favourites if possible :LolLolLolLol:
-
Mine would be STR-1 for race and a Haro freestyler for freestyle. :daumenhoch:
-
Come on Denzil, one card allowed and no prototype stuff guys:)
-
early 80s GT pro :daumenhoch:
i know a lot of people will probably say hutch but the gt handled way better and the hutch cranks always broke :(
-
:LolLolLolLol: ok I would have to stick with the STR-1(quadangle). :4_17_5:
-
You should make some , I would buy a set of u :daumenhoch:
-
White Skyway TA for race
Yellow GT Performer for freestyle
-
deffo the T/A for race and i'd say a performer for freestyle too.
-
PK Ripper for race, GT Pro Performer for freestyle. :daumenhoch:
-
Personally I think you have got the freestyle spot on, don't come much better than that. :D
I agree with Denzil on the race, STR-1
I'd buy a set if you made them too. :daumenhoch:
-
mind thinking about it it would have to be a hutch prostar if you going for what was the dearest bitd.
-
wonder where 'burner' would fit! ???
:LolLolLolLol:

:LolLolLolLol:
Top trumps didn't have a joker did they :crazy2:
-
what a great thread ... GT Performer would defo be my freestyler. Mongoose proclass for race :daumenhoch:
-
jmc andy Patterson,how could you beat that?? ???
-
You should make some , I would buy a set of u :daumenhoch:
It did cross my mind but can you imagine the uproar :LolLolLolLol:

woow :D :daumenhoch:

:LolLolLolLol:
£106
... the bicycle John Nuttall rode :LolLolLolLol:
-
GT Pro for me too. :daumenhoch:
-
if i remember right phil oberon did some of these years ago on the old blue site too.
-
Ewwwww, so subjective - we'd all end up with our own set! :LolLolLolLol:
Phaze1 i'd give 90 for style but others would give it 10 :D
JMC XP-2 would have to be my top trump :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
-
Oh and nice to see "the tree" made it into your trump prototypes Clint ;D
-
Yeah just hope you dont mind that you lost out on Radfactor to Eds firebird Chris :-X :LolLolLolLol:
-
Yeah, but look at the speed rating and you'd have to catch me to compare ;D
-
MRD Pro :crazy2: superb handling and geometry :daumenhoch:
-
JU-6.. Would score 100 on everything easily, except Durability where 50 would be a push :D
-
Surely you want a lower number on weight, or are you saying a JU-6 is very heavy? Can't be heavier than my DeCoster surely - on that you don't pull a wheelie just a hernia

How the hell can a DP with a 'snake post' have a higher style rating than a Quad :uglystupid2:
-

Never even read the weight bit.. ;D
Put it down as 0 then :daumenhoch:
Any monoshock would be right up there in the weight section, my Dan Gurney weighs a friggin ton
-
Ive got a genuine set of these that were made by all ride. They are focussed on riders as opposed to bikes though. Will dig them out and take a pic.
-
In theory the higher the number the better the bike is in that particular category so a 100 score in weight would be the lightest stock bike available :daumenhoch:
Whats wrong with a snakepost Steve ;) :LolLolLolLol:
-
What have you done Clint?
Let me express this pictorially

:LolLolLolLol: Thought it may stir the pot :LolLolLolLol:

Zeronine Pro XL for race. :smitten:

Ahh so I need to change the JU back to 100 :LolLolLolLol:
Your cards your rules :LolLolLolLol:
-
My Vincent freeystyler is as mad as the lambo :LolLolLolLol:
no idea on a race bike though...... :-[
-
Managed to dig these out. BMX Top trumps based around riders not bikes though.
(http://www.sirmerlin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/toptrumps.jpg)
And also a deck of Odyssey playing cards featuring all of their products.
(http://www.sirmerlin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/odsycards.jpg)
-
Been thinking of doing a run of these for a bit of fun to be ready for MK. :daumenhoch:
depending on numbers we would be looking at between 5 - 8 quid a pack :)
there would be 40 cards in a pack so logic would suggest 10 freestylers, 10 race, 10 mid school and 10 vintage.
For it to work i would need cracking submission pics from members like the one below with some info on specs.
Anyone up for having their ride immortalised in a card game and buying a set? :daumenhoch:

The bottom two are nice clean shots Phil :daumenhoch:

I'm up for it Clint, lovely idea pal, you can use these, if you want to, your game after all, I'll not be offended if you don't.

I think this a great idea and I'd definitely buy a set or two. The Pink Woody Trickstar pic you used in the 1st post is an ace pic in my opinion and an iconic bike.
Here's a few others:

Sorry guys, as much ad I would like to do this it looks like there isn't the interest. Numbers of buyers ain't the problem as I can order just one set if needed, it's the contributors who I think we would struggle with. I would rather have a good cross section of bikes and members rather than just lifting bikes from the bike of the month thread or something... :-\

Patterson pr200 , sexiest beast on the race track, great colours, bullet proof frame, rare, exotic gt pro really :daumenhoch:

Contrary to a deluded one or two ;) :10_2_12: ,,, like it or not :D :LolLolLolLol:
The Hutch Pro star was "the" ultimate complete package , lightweight , expensive and sooo cool American brand . It would be against what most kids back thought back then , if wasn't right up there .

I'd love to see a VDC freestyler pretty high rated on the cards too , WOW factor 99
Until a couple of years ago . The Skyway cruiser , would have been one of the first mentioned . Looks, rarity ,branding , had it all :)

Sod the the bikes ,,,,,,,,,
RAD WIVES TOP TRUMPS (Trumpers ) >:D

Right, I'm going to have a bash at these after all and will probably get 50 sets made to begin with.
I will start a submission thread in a couple of days and will need good quality images, preferably not on grass with as much technical and background history as you have on the bike you are submitting
It's pointless debating what bike should get what score for each category as its all subjective but if people want to make suggestions for categories like rad factor, speed etc it would be welcome :daumenhoch:
-
I'd have a pack , just make sure there is a Robinson in there ... :daumenhoch:

:LolLolLolLol:
Crank spindles yes :D :daumenhoch:
Didn't Robinson make some products for Hutch ? ;). :whistle:
Mind you so did Thruster ,Profile and other High regarded companies :coolsmiley:
But I can't think of any for sale ads on here saying repaired Hutch frame or bars . I know I haven't had any Hutch frames with issues . ???
Whereas , another fave of mine the PK Ripper ,(I've had 8 ,, 4 had issues though) cool as hell :smitten:, but there's more with seat tube and chain stay snaps than any other old school frame out there :crazy2:,, .. . .
Everyone knows this fact ,, but prefers to avoid and slur another Top category brand ???
Like the Campagnolo sheriff star hubs slander . One or two had a first hand issue and then full forums of people globally say they're a liability . Yet they have never seen a set in the flesh never mind owned any ::) :LolLolLolLol:
For the record ,Sheriff stars hubs are totally fine for BMX Racing ,, let alone just show pony~ing :daumenhoch:

I'll have a set, as long as its is done without everyone taking it too seriously and/or personally.
Does it really need to be on completes? could it not be done on framesets?
just a thought....

I'd be interested. :)

Great idea :)
