Post by: moley on October 09, 2008, 01:23 PM: I have a few black pairs and 2 white pairs!!

Plus 1 set of black got stolen at Creation (along with my bike)

My pedal of choice BITD!! :daumenhoch:

They didn't hack your shins off like some pedals!! :LolLolLolLol:

I think Ray (BMXEPLFAN) had some Wellgo or some other copy pedal for sale recently. He might still have them!! :daumenhoch:

Paul - the KHE Stimulataz are very, very close copies - I had a load of them until I slowly collected a few sets of originals. Gutted as yesterday a set I was watching on gaybay went for a tenner - feck!

Hang on for the originals unless you want NOS in which case join a very long queue. They crop up on here and gaybay every now and then, but they were also my weapon of choice BITD and today and I still love them. If you'd had time to call round to mine the other week you'd have seen them all lined up in my lock-up :smitten:

Cheers fella - no PM re the blackstuff by the way yet :'(

Post by: CD17 on October 09, 2008, 04:21 PM: The Que for Black ones is very long, I have three Nos pairs but I got them when they were quite easy to find, you could expect to pay £140+ for a Nos pair now & thats if you can find them :(
Title: Re: MKS GRAPHITES
Post by: Spen69 on October 09, 2008, 04:47 PM: Oh feck

£140? I rode and crashed and scratched my NOS black ones a few years ago :-[ :uglystupid2: :'(

I really should stop riding these bikes, but I can't help myself as I was an idiot 25 years ago and still am today >:D

Cheers Paul for getting in touch with Mark
