Gremlin that bike is just beautiful. :smitten: I commend you on a job well done :daumenhoch:
I just love it when pictures of refurbed bikes appear on RAD.
Where did you source the chrome ARAYA's from if you don't mind me askin.??????
Andy.
GREMLIN:
Hi guys. Thanx for the compliments ;)
This Turbo was always going to be a special build for me. Not just a museum piece either, it does get ridden. 8) Weather permitting that is :D
This is the one build that started it off for me again, before i caught the bug >:D She's still not 100%, but i'm 100% happy with her :smitten:
Andy, the Araya's were an eBay auction. They sat there for a few days, as i just thought they were 20x1.5's.
They were in this country, and cheap as chips too. So eventually i fired him over an e:mail he replied, I nearly cr4pped when i read his reply, and hit the B.i.n button sharpish.
Sets were going for over £60 more and that was from the States.
Also mine were newly built up wheels, all nos bits, but not tightened down etc. So i ended getting new hubs, spokes and red nipples all inc. Which is nice :daumenhoch: G.
A pic of one of the wheels before it was stripped and turned into a Turbo wheel.

Cheers Gremlin, I wish I'd spotted em. I've just gone for a silver set on my new build as chrome are always a bit dear when they come up (if ever in this country!).
