Post by: double chevron on January 30, 2009, 07:45 AM: Now imagine it without VDC decals... would you even care to remove this kind of thing from the dump?

No disrespect intended to the Dixon man, but the freaky designs might have been funny in the 80's...
they look useless now

Post by: munners on January 30, 2009, 07:57 AM: He should have spent a bit more and done it in chrome and kept to the original VDC decals.

Tried a bit too hard woth the forks. They look weak as fook. :-\ That frame needs chunky forks to match the top and down tubes.

Looks like a case of 'A rushed project for a quick buck'. :-X

they are to centre the wheel due to the pointless slotted vertical dropouts!

Title: Re: ITS BEEN 25YR IN THE MAKING VDC 2
Post by: WARDY on January 30, 2009, 09:44 AM: would look ok in better colour or chrome , get rid of those fooking comedy forks and as Nick said replace em with some right chunky numbers plus better decals

Post by: dialledbikes on January 30, 2009, 01:05 PM: I find it amazing that given VDC's heritage and good standing in the old school BMX community they'd come up with something like that.

Why not make a replica of the original frames with updated geometry and materials (OX, 853) and technology (threadless, v-brakes/990s, Euro/Mid BB)?

That would make more sense than that purple thing.

Post by: OrgasmDonor on January 30, 2009, 02:30 PM: i like it, but i like weird :D if the rear seat stays met the top tube properly, to open up the rear triangle, it would balance it out a tad, a few tweaks n it could look well querky, i quite like forks too, but wouldn't feel too confident about the strength of the middle drop out set up though. thinkin outside the box can only do good in the long run. decals are shite tho

what type of rear brake would ou need for it then?

That thick set up is awsome too :daumenhoch:

Post by: gossa on February 12, 2009, 12:49 AM: just for the doubters, this is for real. I spoke to Graham Merry at Hot Wheels yesterday and he said Voris had emailed him about this. I think if he'd have done it in a different colour and did some decent graphics, the reaction would have been way better.....
Title: Re: ITS BEEN 25YR IN THE MAKING VDC 2
Post by: baldbmxer on February 12, 2009, 12:55 AM: Thats the pits! Did Voris design it or Stevie Wonder ::) and whoever designed it, are they the brains behing the Barracuda bikes :-\

Not even rad graphics could make that pretty!

Bars at that angle are usually a good indicator that the person who built it knows fook all about riding bikes.
