Title: Lets see some cool bikes...
Post by: Bren Gunn on November 18, 2006, 10:11 PM
After looking at the Gen 1 Freestyler that Harris has up in the Freestyle section, it got me thinking about the bikes people used to ride...  I can only remember one lad having a tricked up bike, and that was a R gusset Robinson...  very exotic and very cool...  and if I remember correctly, I only saw one Quadangle, and that was a loop...

So I'll kick off with this pic...

Post some pics of bikes that you thought cool, they don't have to be mega bucks or perfect builds, just bikes you like...

Have a look at Harris' Gen1, you'll get the idea :daumenhoch:

For me this is great great build. which I keep going back to view over and over again. A sign of something good.

Built by someone I have much respect for, who drew me into the scene in the first place by provided me with a lot of help and advice.
