Title: Ruffell Twins """"MORE PICS"""
Post by: cherrypicker on September 19, 2009, 08:56 PM
Finished the Ruffell twins this evening, finally, only taken two years. These will be my final offerings to Rad. I'll take some more pics hopefully, if the sun comes out tomorrow. You might have seen the Kellogg's bike before - it now has the correct tyres and both are wearing nos gold DX's, which have been a bitch to source. Anyways, not sure if anyone's put them both up together before on Rad, fingers crossed for a bit of sun tomorrow  :daumenhoch:

Wow, these look great! i think we need to see some more pictures :), rider reps are the dogs for sure! and those gold DX's :shocked: :smitten:, i think Shimano should do a re-issue of these, would love to own a set and race with them :smitten:

From what I remember Neil never ran a flat and vert bike, even when he rode a ta it was a coaster only bike which was unlike most of the skyway riders, when he left (fired hehe) skyway and started to ride the holeshot he went to a free-wheel.
I think the two builds are showing some of the differences in Neils beats from bitd.
Sad load of info I know but I was a bit obsessed with his riding bitd.

Go for it Rich mate :daumenhoch:
I'm about 80% of the way through mine...it's gonna be a rider so a few repopped parts I'm afraid...always a bike I loved bitd....can't wait to finally build a bike that I wont be afraid to ride ;)...and fall off :LolLolLolLol:

I'm seriously thinking of starting a  Rad forum spin off....

...A  Ruffell StreetBeat owners club...with a rally comprising of a squadron of orange beauties charging down the road :2gunsfiring_v1:...
it will be a sight to behold 4 shit  8) 8) 8) 8)

Cool as fook or what !!??!! ; :D

C'mon Radsters how many orange beats are there on the forum ?
Maybe we could have an orange 'beat race at MK13
