Yes I know it's spelled wrong  :LolLolLolLol:



OK so I am growing tired of building race bikes. I have built a few now, fancied doing an old freestyler. But the prices, dear god, the prices ! Then last week this Hutch showed up on Facebook for £250.







The bars are not Hutch. They are quite rare, and have been IDed as Concord.





I ended up buying frame, fork, standers, bars, stem, seat post and clamp (original) for just over £200. The nice thing is that there are no frightening bits on this. Wheels are going to be easy (Skyways) and are cheap as chips and I will no doubt put on a 3pc crank as the original is nasty.

Decided I hated the original decals.



BOAK. So I cobbled this together.



Then contacted Del with some instructions....



Over chrome.

As you can see I have numbered it.

1 = My design above as the main decal.
2 = Will say Hutch Exel Hutch Exel etc instead of Hutch Trick Star.
3 = As they are.
4 = As they are x4, IIRC
5 = As they are X2.

Del said "Easy" so I paid up and they should be here soon :)

Cheers :)

Just ordered the wheels and grips.





As I mentioned before no expensive surprises here. Got the wheels for a nifty and the grips for a fiver then 15% off Black Friday.

Had a rummage in my part bin earlier and found an American - 19mm 3pc sealed BB so yeah, cranks should be easy too.

Did something similar with one a few years back ... Actually lovely bikes very underrated...
