No unfortunately - swopped it for a Peugeot Racer (Road bike) when I was about 16 . . .wish I had kept it but the frame was slightly cracked (common prob with Supergoose)! Kept the Peugeot and sold that for decent money only about 15yrs ago - had really good Campag components and was one of the first commercially available road bikes with integrated brake and gear cables (2x tab gear levers on the main frame)

Still got the scars from those bear trap peddles. The bmx scene went nuts after the film et came out, everyone wanted one. My first bike was a purple budgie before my grifter which got totalled when i got hit by a motorbike. My apologiies to the original thread starter as its went a bit off topic 🤪

One of my pals bought one of the rayleigh ultra burners that they re released earlier in the year. Hes got it on the bloody wall in his house.

Bear traps would be illegal these days for the 'little darlings' generation - tbf they were a sh*t design that ripped your shins to shreds but like mushroom grips were a 'must have' mod . . !

Back to the barrow...I did comment on solars post asking about the battery type and whether the rear wheels are removable and no response. Looks good though but those wheels look absolute crap.

I've just added the avid wheel conversion kit to my.nash power barrow.makes it much more sturdy,my only gripe with them is the wheel locking pins have a habit of coming out..it needs the pin cut a bit shorter so the spring ring can go behind it.(if that makes sense) off topic,I still collect and build os bmx bikes..have a haro freestyler 30th anniversary edition at mo.recently finished and sold a race Inc ra 7 and torker 280x..next build will be a diamondback senior pro,same as I raced bitd..I have a mate in palm beech who keeps his eye out for me on frames and parts.

Looks like rear wheels are interchangeable with standard legs and both height adjustable?
Still needs a brake on swivelling wheels though. . .
