Title: i don't beleive my luck, two days and two scores
Post by: jT Racing on February 21, 2006, 10:44 AM: (http://www.jttimmerwerk.nl/images/pk_ripper.JPG)

i know it's a shitty picture and the forks are not landing gear, but it is a looptail ripper. Nothing for ages then they all come at once. it's got silver arayas with chrome sealed suzue hubs, the drive side is a mint blue maxy cross but the other arm is generic. ARX forks(aero pro forks) gt bars, some sr aerox thing stem and a dia compe and GT stiskers ???. The bit that's best though is the 55 euro price tag. I was nervous as fook thinking somebody is going to ring and offer more or get there before me. Soon as i had it i was singing in the car ' i was first to get it, 55 euro looptail ripper' to the tune of moonlight shadow from mike oldfield. I know i'm going nuts but i scored a kuwi cruiser with nice bits for 50 euro and the day after a looptail ripper with decent bits for 55 euro. You would be happy too if you got that. Holland does have it's plus points. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Where are you finding these, in bike shops or classified adverts etc?

I go over to the Dam now and then with work, anywhere worth looking whilst I'm there - assuming of course Amsterdam is not your manner ;)

When I first opened the thread, I was thinking to myself "Oh brother, another poor fellow who thinks a mid-90's GT is something worth having" Then I saw the looptail! :4_17_5:

Very nice pick up there!
