I always wanted a streetbeat as a kid, but no-one I knew had one either. I've had about half a dozen now and still have two (or three) but have never ridden one :LolLolLolLol:

Post by: theRuler on March 22, 2007, 05:09 PM: people still rode streetbeats way into the 90's
not on tuffs though

they are good framesets, and make a good rideable setup, if setup right

Post by: pickle on March 23, 2007, 09:12 AM: I used to ride my beat all the time (until i tried a new school bike that is) but still ride it when me and my lad go out for rides........i think they ride great! Meddle had a ride of mine at the last Epic meet and thought it rode really well for an OS bike :daumenhoch:

Cheap as chips as well to pick up.....Rude wheels do em raw for about Â£30!
