Close up and personal

Probably the nicest bike I've ridden so far. It rides smooth and lush and is perfect for riding dirt jumps on. This bike actually does what it says on the tin. (& I wasn't paid to say that!) Oscar Golding

Oscar has some sick style and big tricks up his sleeve for a young rider and coupled with consistent Tail whips and Flips, it ain't going to be long till Oscar has some even crazier more impressive tricks coming out of his bag. John Lee

 i know what you mean about trails been kicked down but you need to show the people that knock them down whos boss Razz our trails have stood for 2 years now, few iffy bits at the beginning with lips being kicked off but in the end they stopped and our trails are solid as houses just need a little work from general wear but tbh street and park is where its at

 oh yeah that happened to us.. they were like the nicest trails in sheff, and been there for ages. we used to ride them all the time and they were so flowy but some people started riding pit bikes in there and setting fires under trees, we left them for about 2 weeks, went up and they were completelly levelled.. the vid you were on about was the chicksands one???
