Sorry but it doesn't do anything for me I'm afraid.

I do like the tires though. Could do with a set of them.

They had a nice try at capturing some of the character of the old Ripper but for me its not quite there. It looks wrong....too long in the front end and those dents in the chainstay area  :P  Still not bad though.
 That build looks nice.... be better with blue spoked rims though  ;)

apart from the seat that is nice .cost pretty penny i guess but looks so retro it gets my vote

i think the seat is in-keeping with the "retro" look

it's nicer than the tyres!

Looks nice, like others have said though better seat (looks like it needs a viagra  ::) and the stem needs to either be flipped over or replaced with something better.  Other than that, looks pretty good   ;)

yes but for 55 more pounds
-surely the new 07 floval is 'retro enough'?
