Title: My new frame - Big thanks Ray900
Post by: SaMAlex on July 25, 2008, 09:58 AM

I went riding last night at a Miniramp. We had a great session, a good few of us there. When it was time to go, Ray gave me a frame that we had spoken about a few days ago, a full on S&M Warpig! He wouldnt take a penny for it.

I really like the Warpig and Sabbath frames. They are both so full on, and examples of bikes at the time. I wont build this up, its just fine as a frame. Id now like to get a Sabbath frame (condition not important) cos to me, they are a pair. I had tried to only get 1" S&Ms but now the seal is broken!  :-\

Thanks again Ray, and thanks to the guys riding last night, it was a great session.

So, Alex. You going to save my 'well seasoned' Sabbath (with platform) from a lonely, unbuilt existence in my overcrowded shed?

Id love to take it off your hands (suggest what you'd like in exchange?) but if you are hoping for it to get a make over Im not sure I can help. I can just promise that it will be living with many S&M friends

I think its clear coated, I havent really looked that close.
I had a clear coat PBR that was almost brown, it was nice.

Nice find.  But, why wouldn't you get the heavy one?   :LolLolLolLol:

Seriously, what do those things weigh?  Looks like the perfect weapon for a gang rumble.
