Title: Score or not???
Post by: electobooty on August 15, 2009, 03:15 PM

I know nothing about new skool at all lol

I got offered a MacNeil ruben frame and s&m slam bars with a stem that I don't know for forty notes.  I bought them and would like to build it up but don't really know what I've got and whether it's worth it.  Can any of you new skoolers clue me up?
Thanks

Sounds like a good deal  :daumenhoch: the Ruben frame was well thought of. Do you have any more bits to go with it or do you need advise which bits to put on it?

it's got USA bb but I wouldn't know if the headset is normal or not.  Headtube looks similar to my gt Mach one.

I don't have any new skool bits so would appreciate help LOL. The bloke I got it from says he has some primo 3 piece crank set at similar low price.  Any good. 

Thanks for quick help
