Simonralli,
I've got an 06 dawg Primo frame lying around waiting to get cleaned up if you were interested.Posted 3 years ago # -
I used to leave lying around photos cut out of mags of one of these as I approached my 13 birthday.
No luck.
I got a Dawes 10 speed racer instead...:(

Bikes you wish you had owned but never did
I don't think there can be many left on my virtual wishlist . . . hey, life's too short to die wonderin' ;>). That said, I've always had a bit of a BMX fetish despite being cr@p, so new year/new project and all that . . . today the postie delivered a spankin' NOS 2001 black Sabbath frame . . . rock on!!
Should look sometime like this when it's done (already have the shiny Primo seat, chrome headset and polished AD990, just gotta save up for some more period-correct shiny bits - none of that modern light-weight, slammed seat malarky) . . .

My kitsuma is slightly bigger than the one in the classifieds, it's got a 19" seat tube (centre to top) and about a 23" effective top tube - they are quite short frames by today's standards. Email me if you want any more info (click on my name...)

Mamadirt; I'm sure you've lusted after virtually every tiny bike ever made, judging by your track record!

For me it has to be the Diamond Back Axis TT, sorry no pic but I thought they were bloody lovely!
PJ.Posted 3 years ago # -
Funny you should say that, a DBR Axis TT is my race bike. Just rebuilt it with all new gear as well. Still going strong after 14 years
(Excuse the photo taken with the laptop)
As for wish list?
Merlin XLM
Mountain Cycle: San Andreas
I'm sure there are heaps that I've fancied, but those 2 top the list.Posted 3 years ago # -
A 1995 GT LTS with Judy SLs (the yellow ones) - the year I started riding properly and it was my dream bike then
(the pic's a 1996 one but I can't quickly find a pic of the 95 one but they're near enough the same)
Posted 3 years ago # -
Dreamed of owning one of these for years... First upside down forks, first disks, the list goes on

Clubber - got a '97 STS in the garage, the dodgy thermoplastic one
Posted 3 years ago # -
Is that a San Andreas? A mate had one of those. Nice bike, bit heavy for my liking though.
He sold it to another bloke, who didn't have the skills to ride it. Shame.
Posted 3 years ago # -
Wanted an LTS too, after hiring one for a day in Mammoth. Someone overtook me on the big hill at Mayhem on a mint one the year before last. I commented on what a nice bike he had.
Then there was this, wanted badly, but couldn't afford:
And this:
Fantastic - wish I could get hold of one now..Posted 3 years ago # -

Good site for retro bikes (not all have pics, unfortunately)

So thats what a Mk1 hollowpoint looked like

I wanted the san andreas unilt I rode one and then realised pedalling a metre between rest stops was taking the mickey!
Were any of you at the bike, think it was 99 when peaty snapped his STS while flat landing off the top of a lorry.

Saw a later model one at a race last year. A rather attractive young lady was with it and she thought I was staring at her... only some of the time Posted 3 years ago # -
The STS was pretty, shame it was known for exploding.
Posted 3 years ago # -
Remember someone having a bike called the Dogs Bollox around '95 that was really nice, not sure of the manufacturer.
Always wanted a Fat Chance Yo Eddy:

Love the Pace RC300. What year was it and what is the fork on it? Looks like an RC40/41 XCAM? Isn't that too long for the frame?
