im pretty sure the v2 was all black with no stickers

but i think the v1 had stickers, i think two different types but im not certain, i have seen couple over on the museum but i wanted to check here as im not sure if they were stickers other people made up

i thought joe had said that he has a sticker set for one of the v1's, but im not sure, it was in a thread in the mid section a few months ago

v2 blackbike has no stickers, mid bb, black bbq paint (s&m's name for the texture of the paint)

v1 blackbike does have stickers, euro bb and was avalible in gloss black and smoked chrome too iirc


i love my v2 blackbike, its the 2nd best frame ive ever had, s&m holmes being the best :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

well i managed to get my hands on a v1 and SBD has done possibly the nicest paint i have ever had on a bike

as soon as i get a chance i will get some pictures up, but im hoping to get a look at a set of original decals so that i can ask del to do a custom twist on them

i just cant seem to get a good look at a set

although i think condor 96 might have posted a copy of an ad a few months back, so im going to have a look for that  :) :) and your not wrong about the holmes its still my favorite  :) :)

Post by: GINGERHOLMES on April 07, 2009, 09:57 AM
i can honestly say, i dont care how good or pants i am now, its just such good fun to be over the skatepark in the sun having a laugh and a roll around

i spent six hours at rom saturday and four on sunday and it was amazing, such a good laugh  :) :)

sounds like the ride is going to be sweet, how long do u have to wait for the frame?
Title: Re: s and m black bike v1
Post by: bmxbert on April 07, 2009, 10:07 AM
im unsure yet. my freind jack had his within about 2 weeks but i think it can take up to about 6

im getting a 250s. 21.25 tt with old style gusset. no built in seat clamp.(yuk) and 10mm rear dropouts.

will be in raw as im going to get dan to do the finish for me so my bars and forks match. ive just seen that profile are making the old ripsaw so i can hav it looking even more like a mid trail boss :smitten: :smitten:
