Title: Can't stop smiling
Post by: Daletsunami on January 24, 2009, 09:25 PM

Won some DC MX1000's off the bay with levers and went to pick them up tonight, when i saw them they looked NOS and was quite happy with the buy, anyway the guy said he had sold most of his stuff but had some forks out the bac which he thought were skyway, so I told him I would go and see what they were and see if I could help identify. Turned out they were DP forks and he also had a set of Shimano MX pedals offered him a few quid for the both of them and he accepted.

So got an almost NOS set of DC MX1000's, a pair of tech 3 levers the same, DP forks and some pedals for a steal..........so i can't stop smiling :)
