Be fair though, he's not claiming it's retro really, he just says it will be retro one day, which is true. Once it's no longer modern, it'll be retro.

I have to admit I'd need to be a lot stronger and braver than I am to get much out of that box of tricks. And it isn't even really a downhill bike. How times have changed.

Stinky

Thats an 08 model, so about 15 years off bein retro! Its even got the anti jack brake stay and ISCG. The original Deelux and Primo are now classics as its been around a while now.

hello all.

thanks for the replys but just a few things to say.
firstly it is a 05 frame i'm afraid and not a 08 frame. yes it does have the brake jack (which works mighty fine) and NO it doesnt have the ISCG mounts. if you look at the pics its a adapter plate that fits between the bottom braket and the frame. however if you'd like to check http://www.konabikes.co.uk/2k5bikes/2k5 ... upreme.php i'm sure you'll belive me
anyway, and to "mtbmaniac" saying that "funny how all da kids think that anything made before their puberty is "retro".. " well it makes me smile. lol. as i did write it will be rerto in the future and with the title saying kind of retro(ish) i would have hoped, you would have understood it was light harted! anyway, so what it if its not as old as you! i'll still pull a better wheelie than you on my schwinn beach cruser than you! and as to pubes, bet mine are longer than yours!! hahaha
so for now safe trails all and play nice!

frame is still avaliable
