Title: What are the aero reflex freestyle frames like?

Post by: pickle on August 08, 2009, 04:18 PM: they are a good quality cheap ride mate :daumenhoch: they have gone up in price over the last 4 months or so, you could pick up a frame and forks for about £35 a while back but expect to pay about £50-£80 i think now.

good quality though and were damn expensive BITD when they came out, about 85 i think ???

Post by: dordymush on August 08, 2009, 04:42 PM: lol i would'nt say junk.i always thought they were a nice frame set.
welds are well sewwt on em. but them fooking stands on the back are a nightmare.
sooner give a bit more and get a streetbeat though.nice and long.lovely old frame set as a rider.

my mate might be selling his chrome haro zippo f+f soon if you interested
they make a nice ride and arent as flexy as the old school frames
a set of master decals from del on here and they look as cool as penguin piss :daumenhoch: imo heres mine zippo on the left

Post by: poolysheriff on August 08, 2009, 10:13 PM: Last few nos 1s i,ve seen on ebay have gone for over £100 :shocked:

Mind you they were £129 in 1985 or something like that :LolLolLolLol:

So possibly the only frame to have gone down in value

Title: Re: What are the aero reflex freestyle frames like?
Post by: jon foz on August 09, 2009, 11:49 AM: you could build a Haro Master (85 model) up for around £350 I would have thought,always loads of F+F for sale then just personal choice what you put on it,if you want something to ride used parts would be the way to go and obviously cheaper
