I just thought it would be a nice thing to do, giving Mario some well earned praise as i know he has had some bashing in the past. I cannot comment on some problems that some formites may have had but on my experience, time wise, and the job he has done i thought it only fair to give him 10/10. As for Winston i do not think it needed me to tell people what a great builder he is, his reputation goes before him, after all those years at Roberts. But having met him he also turned out to be a really nice guy. As for getting excited, i
m a cycle nut, dont you look forward to seeing an old retro frame coming back to its former glory, and it needed two great blokes to do that, Mario and Winston. Also SCILLY my frames went to Suffolk, Essex, London and the midlands. When BMX came in strong in the early 80s i made many custom built frames for racing and stunt work and one of the riders rode many times for England. Im sorry if it came across heavy in my first two visits, but as said before Mario has had some hard on here so i thought it would be nice (and helpful to others) to give him some praise. I look forward to coming on this forum again in the future, as i believe all forums can be of good use. If anybody is interested i could post some pictures on here of another bike i have,it`s a H.R.Morris with VERY fancy lug work and with nearly all old Super Record Campag on it. They were the last set of lugs to be cut by Dick Morris and he cut his full name in the top head lug and in the bottom head lug he cut SANS PEREIL, it means without equal.
