Nice 8)

Used to lust after the Yo Eddy with blue one side, green the other colour scheme. Looking at that seat post, how tall are you?

That's a stunning bike, beautiful. Are you 'ededwards' the poet from retrobike?

It's a rider or a garage queen?

I always wanted a yo eddy or buckshaver. I think if I was able to get my hands on one though it would be hanging above my fireplace

Mines mainly a 'garage queen' now... it has the occasional foray out when i'm feeling nostalgic or the full sus is broken.

I've got one of the blue/green ones, sadly broken and a bit rusted but it's a long term do-up project. It was a great bike when it wasn't broken!

Ragti you'll never get it unless you were around at the time.

matthewjb, that one is beautiful but only ruined by those god-awful Wildgripper tyres which are just a little bit too late to be truly authentic. And they're the wrong shade of green as well...

Resurrecting an old thread....

Thanks for the kind words, as above, if you were around in the early 90s then the likes of the Yo Eddy, RC100 and Dolomite paint scheme Attitude will always have a special place in your heart. And if you weren't then they most probably won't.

That's a stunning bike, beautiful. Are you 'ededwards' the poet from retrobike?

It's a rider or a garage queen?

I am indeed 'ededwards' from Retrobike but less sure about the poet part.

It's definitely a rider rather than garage queen, covered it in Cannock slurry a few weeks ago and intending to take it to FoD soon. Would ride even better with the original rigid fork though.
