Am I missing out out on something in my collection of retro BMX's. I have fought hard to win a pair of Vector forks, got lucky on some Hutch cranks, been just in time on an ESP stem amoungst alot of other stuff!
But there is just one thing that is missing? And now after spotting it its obviously more important than certain bike part - it is of course the leather sofa bike stand! Every collection it seems has one, usually at the back of the shot! I'm begining to think that the rather tasty bikes seen alongside so many leather sofas are just a cover for secretly displaying your real pride and joy - a leather sofa!
Should we request a new museum for these cow hide benches?
Should the guys at rad start up a sister site called radleathersofas.co.uk?
Lets get some feed back from you guys out there in radland. Lets talk about your secret leather cravings, a problem shared is a problem halfed.
Get it out in the open and lets beet this horrible afliction before it ruins this great website.
A leather Kashimax MX is as far as I'll go. Cheaper shipping too!.... unless you're in Germany! - only joking
Like I said lets get this out in the open and fight it?

Next weeks discussion - WOOD/LAMINATE FLOORINGS!

Well done Dave.
I wonder how many others will have the strength to stand up and be counted.
We know the usual suspects, great bikes, but their sofas aint so cool. Some people get alot of flack for their choice of wallpaper, well i suggest we go a bit further and 'out' these leather bench fanatics.
Does anyone know if Radman has a leather bench? C'mon someone spill the beans on Britains nearest offering to the Haney's.

Well i had to sell my leather sofa to fund buying one of my all time fav bikes :santa_afro: I must add that it is JJ's fault as he sourced the affore mentioned bike :santa_lipsrsealed: I am happy to sit watching tv on said machine but her in doors is finding the laminate flooring rather cold :santa_lipsrsealed:
-
That bike you mentioned is soooooo much better than a leather sofa! One less leather bench cluttering up good bike displaying space I say.
Merry Christmas!..... I'm of to DFS on Boxing Day!!!! Gonna snag me a bargain!

I am poor and can only afford an Ikea sofa with canvas cover, one day maybe though Hmmmmmm

LOL,
Its the lighting, the walls are white not cream, and it is a piece of textured white art , exactly what i was looking for to put on a white wall ! -
Minimilist contemporary ! Just my styleee !
& Its a CD tower, not a speaker, although everyone thinks its a large speaker !
