I sold this a few weeks ago and kinda miss it already. My Allez is obviously a nicer bike but it's not as fun, seems a bit boring.



yes those are yellow jim c's.

might look like a pos to you but it was my first "real" bike - a 1993/1994 mongoose villain. bought it with my own money when i was 14 (may of 1994). picture taken in may of 1997.



profile cranks & sprocket, haro tires, khe bars, heavy tools forks, fishbone x-ufo, izumi chain and suntour xc-II copy pedals are long gone.

also...

s&m ng dirt bike:



had araya 7x  and super 7x rims and gt dx copy pedals. :(
still have the frame, forks and stem.

i really wish i had more pictures of it. there was a time when it was tan and had a s&m pad set and black skyway tuff IIs with skinwall v-monsters. about a year later it was metallic red and had 2.2" dirt monsters (on the araya wheels) front and back. that was back in 1999/2000, btw.
loved the bike, but it was heavier than a friend's "heavy as f**k".

deluxe:



replaced with a shorter pantera v4.

tnt longfellow:



loved the looks but the built quality was utter shit.

fit s3:



i would have kept it if it had chainstay brakes.

se racing assassin:





one of the very first. if not THE first. i still kick myself for selling it to 3rd gear on vintagebmx. such a beauty.  :(

gt pro series:



i decided to only keep 1 race frame. sold the gt and kept the standard.

Third



Staats Long Jumper
I think I have all the parts I could put this one back together, but that would mean disassembling my Beringer


S&M Holmes Next Generation. First "expensive" frame. Still have a bit of this bike on various other bikes of mine. Frame is chilling out in the shed.

Sunday vinnie, wish i didnt swap this now



Haha, This is the only frame I'm probably ever not regretted selling. Mind you it was my 4th Sunday and I had ended up with my Hickerson.

20" Sunday Vinnie.


Alliance PSI - This is still in circulation somewhere after lending it to a friend, trying to track it down.


United Feva


21" Sunday - Hate the geo on 21" Sundays. Swapped this for a 20" hamilton.


Mutiny Soldier - First aftermarket frame, my dad scrapped it in a shed clearout. He was meant to scrap an old diamondback...
Funny that 3 pegs are starting to be trendy now.
