As title really, after tripping over my "mk1" Sabbath frame in the garage again got me thinking what happened to them all, they seem unbreakable but you never see any about, did they really all get used as boat anchors, or did the majority crack / snap?
-
they all went rusty from amos burke riding them in the sea! (on location i think) :LolLolLolLol:
-
i dont know where they all went but the mk1 sabbath was and still is one of the nicest platformed bikes ever.
they had an awsome stance i preffer them over the big daddys anyday.
your a lucky boy if you have one

Mine's in the shed, no closer to being built & ridden than a year ago. Must try it out sometime, but it'll have to be with light parts!
-
build it like a tank. its the 90s way
the heavier the better. like bowling balls, hammers , and all other things manly.
if it dont break your leg if it falls on you its not heavy enough lol
-
id give somebody props if they managed to break one of those foorkers :LolLolLolLol:. buuuutttttt i prefer my big daddy :knuppel2: ..........but the sabbath is my second fave platform bike....well toss up between the sabbath and a wal riot/2hip big boy (i like something about them)

"oh my god its sooooo heavy,how do you ride that??? why do you have brakes and pegs??? how are you so good on it?? why is your seat not slammed??? thats the cleaniest bike ive ever seen!" and on and on........ :idiot2: i hear the same thing everytime

i am currently building a mammoth 90s ride at the moment ,just for something to do.
alot of the indestructible frames did what they said on the tin and the riders stepped up and rode
the balls off them.
