N13L VV:
Ok today i thought id get ripped into my 85 streetbeat . This is going to be a rider and not a carpet queen :wink: .   Ive battled in my head for ages on the colourscheme and parts on this but eventually decided on black and white .   I want to keep this bike clean looking without brake calipers , levers or cables ,  I havnt lost the plot tho as its got a coaster rear brake   :wink: .  Anyway today i scanned in the old decalset i peeled off and made up these custom ones instead in gloss black with a chrome outline . They are so hard to photograph but look so much better in real life .   All i need now is to buy a set of grips and a chain , oh and myybe some different pedals  :wink: .  Overall im really pleased with how its turning out and love the clean look with no brakes .   As for the padset please excuse it as its just an experiment to see what im going to make for it , its just a sticker on for now .  :wink:
