Title: Standing Gear on a PK ?
Post by: brass monkey! on November 08, 2006, 12:50 PM: Opinions please................

I have a really minty Burnished PK Looptail frame, but have been having a nightmare getting a pair of NOS Chrome LG's, and prices are getting higher...!

I see you can get a NOS pair of Standing Gear (The freestyle version of Landing Gears), in Chrome for under £80,

what do ya think? good or bad alternative for a Ripper, ?

Yay or Nay ? :-\
