Title: Geoff Cain's Milky Bars
Post by: ED209 on August 16, 2015, 03:53 PM: So a little dream of mine has just come true :D

Just got off the phone from speaking to Geoff Cain and he's sending me a pair of his UK made 'Milky Bars' for my Zima :angel:

Real nice bloke was Geoff ... he's hoping to come to MK as well :daumenhoch: but I'm totally stoked to have got in touch with him through the power of instagram and get hold of these bars :Great_Britain: :Great_Britain: :Great_Britain: :Great_Britain:

Trying to get as much Reynolds 531 tubing as possible >:D

Did he make any other parts?
Title: Re: Geoff Cain's Milky Bars
Post by: fugazi on August 17, 2015, 01:26 PM: He made some frames with an alloy front end & cromo rear, I think He may have had a hand in the design of the 2hip pork as well, unless I'm thinking of someone else!

Post by: ED209 on August 17, 2015, 01:41 PM: Geoff is hopefully coming to MK so we can quiz him there :daumenhoch:
Title: Re: Geoff Cain's Milky Bars
Post by: fugazi on August 17, 2015, 02:01 PM: Cool, in an early '97 (I think) ride mag there's a half page bike check on the alloy/cromo frames He made, Dan Harris had one of them.
