its a tough decision thats taking alot of time trawling the net looking at pics which drives the misses mental , till she likes the occasional bike and says thats nice usually followed by some blah about shoes .

did see a matt black one that looked cool, though if its a kwak it should really be green,

welcome to here fella  :occasion14:


let's be 100% clear though, it has to be black !  green is for kermit

things to look out for ;
- a good history as they are 6years old now
- the frames can crack in an accident or harsh use, it's along the welds, try a search on here for some pics
- brakes were a bit crap and go for a 2005 C2H with the red 'R' on the tail as they were better than the C1H
