Gnarlyscoots:
Well guys, this is not going to built to factory spec, far from it. It is chrome and was powdered over the top. Powder was removed and the f+f polished  :daumenhoch: It's not 100% percent but I not worry as I will be riding the shit out of it  :2funny:

I will be building it in the 3 old school anno colours of Red, Blue and Gold (and some polished parts too, all my spare junk and more  :LolLolLolLol:  :daumenhoch: )

I have now fitted the old Tange headset from my Haro and Tange locking nut. Pics will be added as we go along so any input is cool   :daumenhoch:

Cable runs through the potts mod, down the forks tube and out the left fork for a front freestyle caliper  :coolsmiley:



Polished and Headset fitted

Jaymz:
Is that a cable hanger on the front of the head tube? Looks like it could take a centre front brake

Mattdub:

Cool , like the two tone versions on museum too  ;)

Gnarlyscoots:
Yes Jaymz  :daumenhoch: Its the hanger for the rear brake. It comes through the stem into the ACS rotor then from the rotor through the hanger and down to the rear brake which is situated underneath the rear stays.

No brake bridge for a normal caliper  :LolLolLolLol: It's kind of like a racer really. Only outer cable from the hanger to the adjuster on the bottom tube then inner cable only to the rear DC 750 calipe at the back  :shocked:  :LolLolLolLol:

ukoldschool:
is the head tube cracked? (first pic)
