There are plenty of collectors in the U.K. ( look here ), some in Holland, Franse and Germany.
Once sold a pair of Tuff II's to Denmark or Sweden, so there are collectors too.........
We are not only 3
I live in Stockholm Sweden and I don't have any collection of Vintage bikes. The only old BMX related things I have are my old BMX magazines from '83 to '93 and the frame of my first BMX bike called Tramp (steel cheapo made in Taiwan with terrible welds.)
I don't really have the money or interest in owning old bikes myself but think it's super cool that there are some serious collectors in Europe. I see myself more as a collector of BMX history and knowledge.

The Ozone Method Air
Thanks for the compliments once again guys!!
JJR, haha just kidding! I know there are plenty of collectors in the UK, it's just so rarely (if ever) we see them post here on vbmx. It would be very cool to see maybe more europeams post their rides, i know there are some amazing builds out there based on what i've visited some UK forum just like the radbmx you mentioned there. Simply awesome builds, all i can say.

thats a cool ozone, but it doesnt look like it came stock like that. was it a frame and fork only?
True, it didn't. But on the other hand Ozones are pretty hard to find these days, let alone finding complete stock ones.. I wanted to build it the way i always wanted to.
It came with frame, fork and bars but i liked the Q bars better. I might try the 4pc Oz bars some day but havent decided yet when. Thanks.
