Alpinestars Retro Heaven

[vern5000]

Wanted to post up some photos of my Dad's (80 this year) retro Alpinestars collection he has been building up over the past year. I originally had a '91 Al-mega DX which was my pride and joy at 13 years old but unfortunately got stolen.

Hope you enjoy a trip down memory lane for those in their 40's now

Great array of bikes that .. Remember Alpinestars fondly, with there UK distribution centre only 5 miles from my home as a teen, would regularly see plenty of these wonderful bikes in the local woods.

Remember looking through the window of a bike shop which sold loads of these. Completely out of my price range in my late teens, but marveled at the revolutionary elevated chainstay frames, and of course had totally bought into the all of the magazine hype about the supposed benefits.
