Cheers... 8)
Would be interested to see what the judges made of it... up against some of the other cracking builds on display... ???
-
I have said this in another post matey , i know 2 of the judges commented on it mate , I know bren loved it and Andy said that it was on his short list as it was such a nice resto mate.
I felt so sorry for the 3 we picked , it has never been that tough before , but they did a great job and really spent some time looking at all the bikes
well done Bren , Andy and Muttley ( Ross) it was a hard job but you picked the right rides I think

Yeah , that freeagent was well smart , 1984 is my favourite year for freestyle bikes and the freeagent is one of them .

Freeagent is very cool - made by VDC in case you didn't know! :daumenhoch:

Purchased by myself from Alpine Action- Notting Hill Gate in December 1984. The frame and forks at the time were "ALLEGEDLY" pre production due to the fact that the top tube is 1 1/2 inches longer behind the seat tube than the standard production version.
The frame and forks were originally chrome plated but with nickel blows (golding) around the top tube and seat tube as well as along the seat and chain stays, as I said pre production . The reason that I came by owning this bike was due to the fact that my friend James had one on hold from Alpine Action for his birthday in December. When he picked it up my eyes nearly poped out and I knew I had to own one.
The bike has no seriel no, campy dropouts and an extended top tupe with frame stands that are further back. Alpine Action had the frame in a stock a couple of months before the purchase so I guess it was made around Aug/Sep 84.

I think I've said this in another thread but that, for me, was the bike of the show.
Inspired me to go and build a show stopper for next year.
I loved the polished Araya Aero's. I'm polishing a set at the moment and know how much work goes into them.

It made me do a sex wee :4_17_5:

Campy drop outs refers to the early type that was stamped and cut by Campagnolo for VDC. I think that the later framsets had a totally different style of drop out made in house.
