Full Version: Kappa's back!?
Top of the list to the left...
I hope Scott comes back STRONG!
Yeah, I for one am glad to see 'em back.
Hopefully the retro section will have even more positive retro build experiences in the future.
Good stuff but too rich for my blood, at least now.
Hey! All Right! They are around the corner and up north frome me....cool. Can't wait to see what they got.
SWEET!
I love the Kappa stuff!

I'm with you Ant on the price thing but atleast everything but the STR's have turned out. I'm not a big chro-mo guy anyway. (although I'm hoping skyway comes through with a 24" retro )
Only SE is in the ballpark for customer satisfaction so far on the retro's. It's just good for retros in general after the kicks to the teeth people have taken on other projects.

That was my point... only SE is in the ballpark with kappa.
YEAHHHHHH BABY Welcome back Scott and the Kappa TEAM
This is GREAT! news. i remember Scott said if he ever got the STR-2 frames going again, he would offer them up to the people that he refunded the deposits to. ya never know.......welcome back Scott.
I see a killer 26" in my future...
Can they please make a Z frame again..
quote:King, Benders got one on the 'bay cheaper than you can get it from Kappa direct. Hop to it man!
Can they please make a Z frame again..
I am very happy with my GHP chormoly frame. Dont really know if you guys consider that a retro though.

You're right, red is nice but another color would have been nice. I have two new GHP frames and want to build one of them. Any one have any ideas on what parts are appropriate? I hope to race it but by the time I build the 2007s may be out.

LONG LIVE KAPPA!!!! Let's make the JMC cruiser project happen.
the chrome k-26 on the kappa website looks sweet. I like the kappa bikes.
Here are a few shots of my new K-26 in Ford Blue. I'm still waiting for a black Profile chainring to put on a Kappa polished "Profile" spider, with blue ano chainring bolts. I add a new post with better finished shots soon. Buzz.
... looking forward to riding it, if I can ever get it finished. Loks like a nice day today on the east coast.
Bmxbuzz -- Looks great. Those new dropouts with the extra holes look trick! Couple of questions...
Are those new or old stickers -- I don't think I've seen white Kappa stickers like that before?
What is the little plate welded on the seat tube?
Thanks!

I'm guessing the extra plate is a copy of the robinson plate ??
What was on the old Robinson plates... the logo?
I thought the logo and serial # ?? I had a patriot model cruiser awhile back. It was the logo on top and the serial # on the bottom. I'm not for sure.. it was about 6 yrs ago now. I might be wrong.

the palte is where the serial number is. The stickers are old Kappas that I had from an older K-20. I wanted to do a "retro" retro. I always like simple logos/stickers to keep the look of the bike the hero without a big chrome sticker.
Thanks for the replys. Looks awesome! Now I just need to start saving $$$ faster so I can get one.
Here is my old red one. Perfect ride.
Nice !
