i understand your frustration however this is incorrect. elvis did respond to your thread in the tech help forum twice in july. he said he sent you a pm. i asked above if you received it.
Thanks mom, I got a PM & responded to it & this is all of it here -

Hi there how are you?
thanks for answering my PM, I dont mean to be a bother but I have tried & been trying for a long while..
I cannot remember which email address was used to set up, at the same time I signed up we were having internet problems & had a few different addresses...
Username is Skywaydays , The email address "MAY" have been "craignsandy@bigpond.com.au"
Or try - "bigfish69@bigpond.com.au
I am sorry for not being able to give you anything more than that..
I really really hope you can help.
many thanks.
Craig Fisher............I had mentioned on the post that I dont have this email addy any longer but I got a PM with a new password using the old deleted email addy, I responded asking for it to be corrected onto the New email addy but that was my last attempt at trying as I never got a response from that, this was in JJune..
Its all goo bmxmum its causing more drama than is required so ill just leave it as it is..
Thanks anyways you have been a superb help for sure..
Should this go to PM so as not to interupt normal viewing

Hey Dave - yeah I think Powerlite during the 90's were made and sold by Pacific Bicycles who also owned GT? Bit late for my interest and knowledge though! Some pics would be great.
Awesome gear Mick. Waz is the master of refinishing like NOS

Welcome Tim! First round is on the new guy!

Just take the forks, bars and stem off, mount a seat on the head tube and you have a uni-cycle. Seriously though, no idea.

Wheels and tires will be changed soon.

COASTY
Dec 18 2010, 03:34 AM
It's very similar to ride. I'll have to measure it up. It looks shorter but it rode great. I love those BIG V bars too. They make it so nice to ride.

Bloody hell! Image doing those speeds and having a tire let go?? Amazing. Checkout the pic of the guy behind the dragster!!!
I forgot about these too. Original Bottema stickies I got from DaveC. Straight to the sticker album.
Kurt.
Dec 18 2010, 05:24 PM
Nice gear Tim.
Cool stickers Glenn. I have some of those yellow ones here too somewhere.
Man now THAT is a chainring. A blowout at 170kms. Crazy. How long would it take to safely pull up from that speed. wow. Check his forks too!
COASTY
Dec 18 2010, 07:39 PM
It was very tempting to replace the og yellow one on my plate. But I didn't.
I just got back from an hour ride with Tobes. I took the Supergoose and it just feels "right".
Steaming hot here at the moment. Rain isn't helping things either.

Oh so I'm going to try and kick off 2011 and actually build something I've been trying to build for years..
Some of you know that I bought a Profile Cruiser a number of years ago that was a complete dog under the glossy yellow powder...So I've finally given up on the thought of restoring it because it is rooted.
If any one sees an old school Profile 24 frame (fork not needed, but I will purchase if need be) I'd appreciate a heads up. I want to get this project done f i n a l l y!
Oh and Merry Christmas to you all.

Stu, I remember that Profile 24. That sucked majorly, and you of all people didn't deserve that

I'm sure I saw a Profile 24 with non profile forks for sale a while back somewhere. I'll try and find it.
Profile 24's are great cruisers. Nice race geometry, thats for sure.
Merry Xmas to you too!
