MadCowKev Wow...they're bright...! No need for lights with them bad boys! :lol:

MadCowKev Glad you like em...proper retro as i bought em when i bought the APEX 91/92. Really comfy and raise a few eyebrows on the trail..! Think Gonzo is jealous cos he's only just realised that retro means clobber as well as bike. If your on the Northern Meet in October you can drool over...

Listen Gonzo This thread is proper retro....y'know that luminous gear is the future...bring back purple and flourescent yellow tops NOW! Now where did i put my Harrington jacket with those badges on? :wink:

I live in Glossop so count me in...looks like i'll have to get out and do a few more miles b4 hand. Hey Gonzo might be able to make it as he lives not too fat away, oh, and if he puts all them bits back on that saracen in time.... :lol: then again...! :lol:

top heavy could be good in this instance.... :lol: :lol: What are the forks in your pic...mararocci XC's?

Ok...will have a think about making an offer....but whilst i do, check these out.... :wink:

Now this has the the worst pair ever :shock: - debate! If anyone still has a pair of these i wonder if they'll own up to it...? :lol:

Wold Ranger...does that mean you want to sell. :wink:

er...sorry :oops: I tend to just wipe my down and there done! :wink: But suppose that was the beauty of these retro shoes - apart from the luminous colours..!! :shock:

nice...they must be a bugger to keep clean - what with then being suede an all...! Not sure of the age of my Kobra's...think they must be 91/92....unfortunately i can't remember when i bought em...real comfy though. :D

Moonkatuk any pics...?

Hi all you fellow retro lovers...well, went out today and came back 'caked' in mud and gunk. Was just about to clean my Gaerbe Kobra's and had a thought...am i the only one with retro steed and shoes....? Anyway, here's a pic for you retro lovers...! Does anyone else ride in retro footwear...

tintin40 sorry the saw cut method didn't work.. :oops: I've had success with this method in the past. Longy

that's not a flite..how very dare you..! :lol: Longy

I think the RM20's are just the ticket for Gonzo.... :lol: :lol:

Well guys, looks like i've opened a can of worms here. :oops: I'm undecided at the mo, yes, i love the Apex and how it rides but had a thought - what would it be like with suspension forks..? I appreciate all the comments, on one hand 'keepin it real' appeals and on the other the 'tweaking'...

Rumpfy Yeah, that's what i have - it's old skool titanium and i must admit nothing comes close it. So, I think the Flite wins hands down....them guys at selle italia know there stuff...or bums. ahem :oops:

MadCowKev Ok...will ask Jonnyretro Cheers Longy

very 'saturday night fever'.....you'd have a fulltime job keepin that bad boy clean..! :lol:

ok guys..another question...What's the right set of forks? Mines a 17'' Apex...does that help you? Longy
