First Build

<< < (11/11)

theRuler:
dont do it

Flake:
theRuler: Dude I've debated whether or not to put the platform on for 2 months now and caim to the conclusion. Get it re-chromed nice and shiny and stick it on, to me it's part of the bike's history. And if it looks cack I can always take it off. :daumenhoch:

jimwise68:
I too think that the freestyle frame kills the bike, it looks awesome without it.

I wouldn't have one on my TA it looks to" aftermarket" for me.

My opinion only of course!

Sweet ride thou and nice build.

Flake:
Jim I was of the exact same opinion (why spoil the bike if it looks good already) That's why it's took me 2 months to make up my mind. But alas the chrome got the better of me :smitten:


 

As for opinions they are all welcome positive and negative. Building bikes is such a personal thing and it's refreshing to hear other RAD members views :daumenhoch:

Indeed Flake, it would be very boring if everyone's bike looked the same. They were individual BITD and that is what made adding bits to your bike exciting.

I actually think I get more of a buzz now, waiting for new bits for my bike than I did 20 odd years ago!  :D

Nice to see another top TA build too. I was even looking for one when I bought mine, I wanted a Ripper. But this baby come along at the right time so I indulged. Glad I did now, think I prefer it to a Ripper now.
