Show us your BREEZER

1991 Breezer Storm - built up from a frame I spied on eBay. I've been looking for a red Breezer for a while (ideally a Jet Stream) but I love this one as it is a 17" - (My usual size is 19") and because it has the original threaded fork and Breezer stem. Paint is original and touched up in places. Decals are in pretty good condition. Certainly the best condition Breezer I've bought so far.

I'd be interested to know why. I also recently got a '92 Storm, and it's also a 17". I knew it would be small for me (I'm usually on a 20"), but although it is, not for too much, and I can't find the reason why. My son likes it so it'll be for him, but he's still 8 so he needs at least 1-2y until it fits him. Yes, I bought it Germany, where ANY bike has a kickstand (this one also had mudguards and a rack).

Also for the kickstand comment...I don't know how many I have right now because, as you said, every bike gets one.
Nr. 1 tuning part in Germany...

Lovely bike!!

I don't know the reason why really. Maybe it is because the smaller frame is slightly stiffer, maybe it is because, as a kid, I came into Mountain Biking from BMX and the more 'throwable' frame reminds me of that.... It's more about feel, than logic, I think
