Kiwi Posted August 29, 2008 Share Yeah I'm thinking 24's too. But see I woke in the early hours with a plan I can try on the wife. Get a 20" to get the boy interested and when he's old enough (only 3 this year) he can (maybe) ride it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're just not BMX's you know? Didn't you have a BMX you were looking at getting rid of? I've been reading up a bit now, not sure about the cruiser anymore...

NotSoBigBen Posted August 29, 2008 Share what happened next? The only guy in the group without a bike grabbed a samurai/ninja sword and killed everybody. There was no Slipknot and I doubt that ABBA had that same effect ....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to phone my dad and find out what happened to my old steel frame. Can't remember what brand it was, but that thing was indestructible. If he still has that in the garage I'll have a wicked restoration project! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only person that may know is my brother, who is stuck in New York on his way to the Caymans. I need to get a hold of him - well, either that or digging through my dads garage, which I wouldn't want to do without a GPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtbreath Posted September 1, 2008 Share Right, so I have been a good boy and lady luck is smiling on me. A mate of mine is donating his Skyway to my cause so I can act like a big kid. He reckons it's the last thing that they have of his after he dug around in the back of their garage. Will post some pics once I get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtbreath Posted September 1, 2008 Share TRy the shop behind Mike's Bikes in Greenside. Havent been there but they do lurk on the hub. Just thought of something. It has been 25 years and 50 kilos since I last rode one of these things. Is there a weight limit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
