Sold on here a good few years ago (maybe 8?). Would like it back for my son now :0)

White, small, orange/red decals. Singlespeed and v brake only. Sold it to someone for their life. Last seen at Yorkshire singlespeed champs a few years ago.

He'll built u what u want as long as he agrees with the execution and he's not building you a dog. The El Toro was awesome.

Had 2 bikes from Ventana. Both faultless, amazing bits of kit that I wish I wouldn't have parted with. Some amazing memories on them both.

Framesreunited?

Bit big and needs to be lighter for the lad. Thanks for the offer though!

No frames reunited yet. Might email Sherwood. Need some electric sex welds in my life :0)
