You actually can wheelie press the back brake when you're gonna go over the seat LOGIC

[@gotham61]

I had one of those very first ones, in orange.

[@MegaJackpot180]

RM Colourmaster 4344a is spot on mate

[@itsarthur1900]

I got one

[@TheSuzukinutt]

Taking mine in to my grave 😈

[@Hotrodngaz]

I think it was called "I love the 70's" :)

[@davidlisney2059]

These were inginitely cool in their day, but the frames were very weak frequently they needed welding at the rear of the "delta wedge". Off road they tipped over backwards too easily...

[@joelwarfe306]

I just want to get one to put on display in my room. Anyone have one for sale??

[@davidlisney2059]

oops typo..infinitely cool

[@Hotrodngaz]

Sorry no. Your best bet is to take a small part of it with the original colour still on it, maybe the chain guard to a local car paint supplier and get them to match it.

[@morgancarser9194]

Hotrodngaz I’m a kid from Northern Ireland and I’m obsessed with the 70s and 80s and I’d love to get my hands on a Chopper but all the ones on eBay are all in England and collection only and I don’t really want to be travelling to England for a bike. There’s one on Gumtree but I don’t really like it as it has been done up so it doesn’t really look as vintage 😕

[@piespeafield]

wheelies were easy on a chopper

[@EXTREME4YEARSTOCOME]

dear jesus. a presenter who rolls his Rs, and has to pronounce Raleigh chopper and Reliant Robin

[@ashleypaine7846]

Rubbish!
