Dan Clark Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Arnoldgaico.avi was an amazing vid.I used to think that Saracen X Tort repainted blue and yellow with X Street on was the sexiest bike ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Oooh, look what's in my loft... I even remember painting that GT Arrowhead to look like a new Zaskar in 2001, with crappy stickers I printed on the computer... And somewhere I have a virtually brand new Fatty R in red, although I never had any P-bones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robwalker Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 (edited) Tuff Guy forks were the nuts DDG ShootersPower Pro's Trials Shack And Street Furniture Trials's Video 'The Old One'ooo and TM1 What did happen to X-street. I remember Deano riding for them or almost riding for them ages ago. Some of you might have known him. You might not believe me, but a couple of years ago, 2004? think it might have been, i was down in bornemouth in dorset on a family holiday. Riding around on my TA26 one day saw someone on a Zoo Boa! Got talkin and went for a couple of rides throughout the week. Anyway he was saying about how he used to run x-street and he was the first person in the UK to import all the ECHO and ZOO! frames, then his mate took over. As far as i still know he's in the royal navy flying Lynx helicopters.So thats what happend to him, but you have to admit he's a true legend.

Guest Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 mmm any mention of anything Deng related isn't really old school is it? I started riding again at the beginning of the year, and hadnt rode for a good 3-4 years, when I came back into the sport I had never heard of companies like Koxx, Echo, Zoo etc so would guess that they have mainly come to light in the last 3-4 years? or am I very wrong about that one?

That blew my mind at the time!Videos being imported from all over the place, and copies of The Bouncing Czech or the Kraus one being like gold dust.
