REVAMPED THE ROBINSON!!
markyp:
Two years ago i put the robinson together and it won bike of the month nov 2010,the all chrome colour scheme was just an experiment really as i wanted to build the blingiest bike i possibly could, it was always my intention to eventually change things around :coolsmiley:
i started looking through the old magazines and scouring the internet for pictures of robinsons,i realised alot of them were decked out in a red,white and blue combination so i decided to go down that route which is hard to pull off without it looking like a clown bike!!!!
i decided on going for a slightly older look this time around after getting inspiration from the likes of stidds,kungfunky and king of the robbos Carlos!!in came a set of vinyl popper pads,a dc double bend lever and after a two and a half year search a set of hard to find robinson pro bars,the experts were just too small for my taste,anyway here she is,hope you like,its a tough order making a botm winner look better!! :daumenhoch:
