Title: Ok, so I've gone and bought one...
Post by: Robbo on October 08, 2009, 07:46 PM
Not the most popular bike on this forum but I've had an urge for one for a while and the deal was right and the rest is history....

Just sold Haroriders old MK09 freestyler f&f set with the intention to buy something old/mid school but the spend for something nice was going to be more than anticipated and a contact said for a lot less than the normal retail you can have this. Picked it up today and made a few subtle mods, I intend to use it as my daily rider/occasional pub hack.

Deal but I think this one is a keeper, any future bmx spends will be on my Colony to keep it light and up to date. ;)

Cheers dude, Only had a gentle roll down the road on it and it feels nice, just ordered some tuff pads for it as the standard tektro ones dont have any angle adjustment and are pants.

like the few changes you've made looks more rideable now, considdered getting one but thought they were a bit pricey, now thats dropped i think there a good deal, flipping the stem is good idea, assuming thats what you've done :daumenhoch:

Not touched the stem mate, it was already like that which is cool as I'm a long old thing so combined with the layback it fits perfect! :daumenhoch:
