This was the kind of thing bitd that made me really excited. Top end bmx's and parts where what i wanted but like many my parents werent that well off.
So now i have the time and money myself i thought id put together over time my dream bmx how i would have wanted if i could have picked the parts out of a magazine.
Its not finished by any means and its not super perfect either, but im excited and cant wait to finish it.
Ill give credit to
Mark (off Rad) for F+F and headset

Spike (BW)- Seatpost
Retrorides(BW)-wheels
Saf-stem
Buttsbikeshop for chrome on bars
Neil (BW)-grips
Matriz-Seatclamp
Plenty more to add but now pictures

Sorry about the amount of pics but im in love .
Still lots of way to go but wanted to share it with you all

Blingtastic!

kungfunky · « **Reply #10 on:** September 08, 2011, 08:10 PM »

very very shiny indeed, looks classy

shame the clamp has lost some of its sharpness during polishing though

Deano · « **Reply #11 on:** September 08, 2011, 08:33 PM »

Lol Kung i didnt do the polished clamp and i know what you mean, i did get it at a good price so its good enough for now.

Clean/bullseye- It is very bling and i dont ride all my bmx's hard so this will prob be a light roll around type.

Stu- iv not forgotten about our deal bud, and thanks for the nice feedback dude

Thanks Rad

Fook me can you find any more chrome for the bike?

Whack those spokes off of it though, bang some Skyways on, I bet as a young un you didn't think 'mmnnn Skyway T/A XL but I really need spoked wheels on it' of course you didn't you wanted Skyway mags on it.

pickle · « **Reply #13 on:** September 08, 2011, 08:36 PM »

Lovely Skyway!!

but have to agree with Stidds regards tuffs

Deano · « **Reply #14 on:** September 08, 2011, 08:49 PM »

Hahaha Stidds as a lad i wouldnt have fitted an xl

i stuggled on smaller frames. You are right tho and i have some skyways for riding and the proclass are just for show n carpet

wish id not sold my powder blue ally hubbed tuffs now

More chrome to come so ill say sorry now

to the purists.

rollin72 · « **Reply #15 on:** September 08, 2011, 08:52 PM »

brakedancer · « **Reply #16 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:03 PM »

very nice deno

sneeky shot of the brakdancer in the background,if thats any thing to go by this will look da bomb !!!
i also agree defo skyways on this one......

Deano · « **Reply #17 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:11 PM »

yeah yeah i get it Skyways

ill be fitting them for riding only as this will have a race setup ie 1 rear brake and 3 piece crank with chunky tyres.

Brakedancer- You have an eagle eye there bro

and thanks for the vote of confidence

your Brakedancer is moving fast and looking super tidy

Spen69 · « **Reply #18 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:13 PM »

No, keep the ProClass Deano - that is proper fookin' lush, end of mate

Bling bada bling

Badbaldie · « **Reply #19 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:24 PM »

very nice , my bike as a kid

stidds · « **Reply #20 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:24 PM »

Deano lose those pro-class completely dude, in no universe should a race Skyway have any other wheels than black Skyways, I raced a lot bitd against Skyway sponsored riders and none of them had spokes.

I know they had Skyway graphites, but a set of black alloy hubbed skyways with black tyres screams Skyway racer.

trickydeno · « **Reply #21 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:38 PM »

love that fella

i will build a ta 1 day

Julian347 · « **Reply #22 on:** September 08, 2011, 09:46 PM »

Looking good. Agree about fitting Tuffs though.

Good luck with the rest of the build.

Deano · « **Reply #23 on:** September 08, 2011, 10:37 PM »

Spen- That is how i plan to spend my time sitting looking at it with the spokes on and glad you like how its coming together. I always change things along the build journey so things mite change slightly.

Stidds- funny you should say that as i have a set of ally hub black tuffs for it and your points are all taken with a possitive vibe and your opinion is always taken onboard dude. thanks for being honest and i hope when its finished you may like it a tad more.

Badbaldie- You must have been a posh kid bitd then or a very well behaved lad

i used to envy any kid riding a ta

Julian-Thanks mate ill need some extra funds and prob some selling of bmx bits to get this one done lol

Deno- Do it geeza, iv only had one go on a ta and was para about denting it.

Woz · « **Reply #24 on:** September 08, 2011, 10:49 PM »

Cool lookin bike, reminds me of my bitd bike chrome TA not Xl but finished with blue and chrome. Also had set of Araya aero's on for racing but mainly used black tuffs for the street and freestyle riding. Your choice though bud will look good either way.
