Just got the last pair of reds from that guy - I am desperate for him to re-release pink Tuff IIs (so I can finish my daughter's bike) but he has no plans for pink yet...  :(

Yo ad!

good luck with chasing the guy down, he is a weird dude.

Dingo wanted some newschool profile stuff and he was really good to him and cut him some decent deals.

I was after some stuff to but I couldnt get a reply from him so chose to spend my $500 bucks with someone else.

Ive been after baby blue tuffs for 5 years but I would rather wait another 5 years than give a penny of my money to the guy

good luck
andy

Sorry, but I just dont dig the new tuffs, there is something about the old ones and restoring a set to what they should be like that beats buying the plastic hubbed thingies.

I am sure they are just as good, but to me, they are not Old School.

Pretty sure they're out of Blue and Red now and the blue dye was so expensive that they won't be running them again, but I know they've just done the others so they should be in stock.

My Light Blue Tuff II's are arriving tomorrow. Had to pay £27 in customs charges though.
Look out for them on the sale section tomorrow.

Thinking of selling mine straight away as I've got nothing to put them on and no plans to buy something to put them on.

What are you going to do with yours.

Got mine today.
Not Baby Blue but a kind of Teal Blue. Very unusual.
Not sure what to do with them to be honest.

Got mine today. Don't know what to do with them, especially in that funny colour. I was thinking about maybe getting a frame set painted to match the wheels? Don't know really. Might just look at them for ever :) Ad
