One of the best cruiser frame/fork sets ever produced in  my opinion would have to be the Revcore cruiser frame set.....Strong, Light, Comfortable yet fast geometry and way stylish.

Your Curtis is a lovley bike Pete! And is English made, so I've changed my mind your cruiser frame is better than mine.

I must admit I've wanted a Curtis 20" for ages, but I think I've got to keep the Standard for another year....

My 84 Robinson cruiser was a nice bike to race, sold it to Alans 5 or so years ago. I'm nearly regretting doing it now.

defo the curtis in first.s+m slightly in front of the standard 125r.darren specialized if the best looking most sweetly welded bike you'll ever see though.

I used to own Shelby James's old Pro Class 24 (I think i got it from Dean Iddiols in about 89/90...cant quite remember......disco biscuit era!)

By far the best cruiser ever !

Why the hell did I get rid of it... :wtf:

Heres my two penneth worth..
Geometry = Azusa (frame to heavy to win though.)
Best Lookin =  Pete's Curtis by a mile . Just love the small o/d tubing used for the seat n chain stays . (Pete is your frame to the G.T spec as Curtis advertise or custom ?)
Ok but my winner is ....
Mike Wong's prototype Dialled Titanium cruiser. So light, So expensive and So unobtainable .
