    Well I dint win the lotto 😥

    It was more a dream than a reality but if I had won the Lotto bought the rights invested $6 million in the company & a new race team to get the name out there.

    Though if I was to win the upcoming euro millions on Friday with a guaranteed £80 million$128 million, the budget above could be increased a lot to make it a success.

    I do hope the company that buys the rights is not the one Mixalive posted the pic of !!!

    Neo you shoud use http://www.gixen.com a free online sniper site, I have been using the free and paid version for 5 years and it has got me some great bargains, stops people from pushing the price up until they hit your maximum bid.

    free version bid goes in 6 seconds before the end
    paid version puts two bids in from two different servers encase one went down, so can be set to put a bid with only 3 seconds left its only $6 for a year

    check it out I think you will like it

    Advice required Please

    I am having a little trouble with this one, the seller bought it new from the states on holiday, so I do not think he would have rebuilt this, the colour scheme matches my 97 catalogue picture but my 97 A2BS was the silver and white which according to bikepedia was the only colour option for the 97 A2BS and the 98 colour options were the silver & white and the red & white. the model was only made for two years I believe.
    My catalogue picture shows the tree amigos sticker on frame and for most models for that year, but I know this was not the case as I never had it on my 97 cuda and I have never seen any 97 bikes with it and according to the comparison part of the site it says they were only on bikes from 93 to 95.

    Did they make prototype models before putting to production hence the differences from the model released?

    picture attached from catalogue

    The bike looks like it has had very little use and though the frame would be a little small for me I do like the colour scheme, I have tried to see if the seller would allow a courier to collect if they could box it. I also offered to send a box to him and give him a few days and then arrange the courier to collect again and he still said collection only, so does not look like I will be getting this one as it would be a 10 hour round trip.

    can any of you help with the points above thanks

    Emailed the seller on these and they informed me they purchased from someone who had recently bought liquidation stock from a factory which had closed, they said all the bikes were new in boxes and mainly Ross, Rand and he found these Cuda’s there. Never gave any details on name or location where they purchased them but was thankful for the reply to my question as they did not need to tell me or even reply.

    So I wonder what over Cuda’s may sitting in the warehouse waiting to be found?

    Do any of you know anything about the sell off of old stock of Ross, Rand Bikes?

    If it has been used as a road bike for sometime it should be a nice frame for a tall person…seems like a number of large frames/bikes going up for sale lately..

    I agree on the frame sizes all seem to around the 18″ I have spotted recently, just hope some of these appear when I am on holiday next year to take advantage of them :)

    I think I should say back then we used to all watch the Arnie, van damme, films over and over as well as the wwf, so we thought the three of us were invincible at that age. But the two weeks of being grounded during the school holidays was a harsh punishment at that age, so never done it again.

    I do not want everyone thinking I am some kind of nutter ;)

    Dang! I thought I had a twisted streak… Cometdata, you sir are one sick puppy! How do you even know about sites like that? Truth be told though, when it comes to picking teams based on purely survival… I want you on my team for sure!!!

    The savagery and violence that you’re suggesting must be the result of living in a country that does not allow hand guns!!! Just kidding :D

    Thanks Neo I’m in :D

    The story appeared awhile ago on a tabloid newspaper site thesun.co.uk, great trashy paper, with page 3 topless models , you normally cannot believe anything they say ;) .

    when I was about 11 someone nicked my Raleigh skyway bmx, that must of been when the savagery and violence towards bike thieves started run through my veins, I remember walking the streets with a couple of friends we were tooled up with my dads hammer and crowbar. We never found the theif or my bike and got grounded for 2 weeks as got caught by a friends parents with the tools :cry:.
