A few subtle changes to my Rickman and my MRD.

(1/3) > >>

southern andy:
Having seen my MRD in the attic looking sorry for itself with no tyres on i thought i'd change a few things around this afternoon.

So.........

My Rickman Pro rider has a lovely set of Terry Cable cranks on, now these are too short really to ride around the New Forest on and far too nice so i thought i'd take them out and fit them to my show built MRD. The MRD was sporting a really nice SR Cromo-lite OPC which i swapped to my rider. Then the problem of pedals as the rider was sporting Shimano DX as was the MRD. The DX on the Rider were not good enough for show and i couldn't be arsed to swap spindles. I had some spare Horseshoe pedals so i flung them on the rider.

Before....................








So bits changed and i'm not 100% convinced on the MRD. The Rickman looks fine and will be a better rider for me. I need a new chainring for the MRD and i'm not convinced on the Terry Cable spider, both of these obviously were on my rider and have taken a beating. I fitted some show queen blue/green/grey label comp 3's to the MRD. These were 1.5's and fit lovely with the slightly smaller stuff on the MRD.

After........................











Pedal wise on the MRD ?????????  Could be a waiting game, i have 2 sets of Shimano DX's for it, if i use them i'll have to swap spindles around but i'm not convinced. I might be after something different.


Thoughts please ????

Andy both very nice bikes but the MRD needs the 3 piece Cranks :daumenhoch:

Hey Andy.

I got to be honest, I think the Terry Cables belong on the Rickman rider and the opc looks much better on the MRD. Bot cracking bikes though.  :daumenhoch:

Lovely Andy,


Top work from another proper BMX enthusiast, love your bikes, you and Phil do build some crackers.


Thanks for sharing buddy
