Has to be new school all the way for me, if its not got a dirty high bb then i dont like it lol.

I agree. Imagine the sport without the frame geo used today. We got many improvements. It also "looks more simple" now and safer?

A bit out of the thread I know but, I kinda really wanted to post this comment.

Best regards!

I'd quite like to see that!! :o

ITll be hard to find, he did it off a crane or somthing at a salt mine in to a down slope of salt, or somthing and twatted his face on the stem.

Proper bikes for sure!

Paul Thomson took those ones from Bike 2001. There's a Section7 video from that show too, which he edited on my parent's landing while I wrote up the news from the show on the desktop :)

That Brisa B26 was the best riding bike I ever tried, the Orange Zero was also very special...

I feel as though ive had enough bikes to argue this point.

i thort it was awful, it felt so sluggish!

Ha yeah. I lusted over a Brisa for months, then I actually rode one and it felt really strange, sluggish like you say. Not a patch on the old Zebdi (now that was a bike).

My mates old Raleigh something or other, forgot the name. We called it the steel pig.

Thinking of all the bikes back then, I creamed over the Pace the most.
