Title: Just won this cool little mini....
Post by: southend_styler on July 26, 2009, 09:17 PM

Really like this bike, and couldn't really let it go at that price, and only round the corner to me.  8)

What dya reckon? Good price?

Has anyone got any info on it? Year etc?

Can't decide whether to keep it, for a kid i may possibly have in the future. Or sell it on to someone with a kid that can use it now?

i'd say its probably worth about that
not a good bike at all but fine for a nipper maybe.
Universal are known for their poor quality bmx and mountain bikes

Yeah, wasn't thinking i'd make a fortune off of it! Just really liked the look of it, and thought i'd have a little punt.  :daumenhoch:

Oh course!  :shocked:

Up by the A127! Wonder if there are any remnants of the factory still left.  ???

Well because of that, i'll have to keep it. Nice to have a bit of local history!  :coolsmiley:

Not particular bothered about the quality of the frame, just thought it looked cool!  :LolLolLolLol:
