Prawny Baby Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 it's comming home dudes!!! Just spoken to the lovely Carl now, and bigman is picking the beast up for me later on today :)Basicly, long story short:I bought the only BT raven 5.0 proto they made, it went round several dealers and ended up at X-street as a demo only frame. I was very persuasive and convinced tim to sell it to me.it had really freaky geo which I loved, but stupidly, after a year, I swapped it with Dave for a brand new T-rex.I regretted it ever since the day I posted it off.Sadly, I heard it was cracked on the rear dropout, and eventually given away for free to Mk. Monkey.Edd Potts fixed it up with a crazy steel plate bolted on, and Monkey built it up, but hardly rode it at all.For the last 18 months it's sat in a shed doing nothing, but now I've got hold of Carl, and he's said I can have it back!Winner! The beast is finally comming home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONGO Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Not very local to you, but i know an amazing alu welder. He welded the Aluminium Olympic GB team frames for this year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawny Baby Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Cheers Bongo, I've got one lead to follow through Sam Doman, he apparently knows of a place who can weld it up AND re-heat treat it again for a good price. If that doesn't come good, I'll give you a shout on msn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawny Baby Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 The Eagle has landed!After 3 years away, the beast is finally back to it's rightful owner!Bigman collected it for me an hour ago, and I'll get it some time next week :)MASSIVE thanks to Mr. Monkey, who really shouldn't have been banned, he's a lovely chap! and a huge thanks to Bigman for going to collect it for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
