Torker Freestylist now finished

(1/3) > >>

g_lamb:
My first build so please be gentle.

I know it's not original spec but I'm not that fussed with this one as I don't have the Freestylist Original Forks  :'(

Anyways, I'm Fooking well chuffed with it  :D

Hope the Rad site owner doesn't mind but I "borrowed" the radbmx.co.uk logo as a little touch by the seat post....  8)

The "Torker" decals are a bit sh*tty as I didn't really spend any time on tarting them up in Adobe Fireworks. These are just temporary to put something on the bike until I can sort something out with Del

Going to let SBD work his magic  :4_17_5:

I'll keep it White and contemplating a Clear Starburst over the top

Not sure when I'll chat with SBD as I have a thing about the Forks. Not entirely happy with them but not sure what to do. Prob landing Gear originals if they'll fit  :-\

Having trouble with the rear sprocket so no gogo  :'(

I bought a Dicta but when I went to fit it yesterday I couldn't work out which way 'round it went on (I assume stamped/embossed side faces outwards  :-[) On this basis I couldn't work out how to tighten it and it also seemed to want to "undo" if I were to pedal  :-[

dan-dare:
Should just screw on to the hub bud. :daumenhoch:

g_lamb:
OK, OK I get it. I'm guessing no-one likes me and/or the bike....  :'(
