Title: Dirt Bike NG new little project - UPDATE It's got to go
Post by: gavprimo on February 20, 2010, 08:03 PM

Due to the current financial crisis and the fact that I have to get new parts for my work commuter bike and a new mtb frame, I can't justify keeping the Dirtbike.  have wrestled with this and don't want to get rid but can't justify keeping it with other costs takng priority.
 :(
So if anyone is intyerested or knows someone that wants a DB that only needs a brake sticking on it, its for sale, or currently on ebay
see further down for the finished pics

i've removed the Vans stickers now and t-cutted and buffed the frame, removed the snafu bars and cleaned up the cranks and chain ring.

the forks on closer inspection are chrome and have been rattle canned black, then had a gt mach 1 sticker applied on one leg and a Jamie Bestwick sticker on the other.  I've removed them and will get some nitromors on them to get rid of the spray paint

I will try to get a picture of the forks up just in case anyone can identfy them.  they are probably just a cheap set of forks that got slapped on the front but might be worth checking

just finished this off this morning, only needs brake and cable.  I bought the wheels off woody, and hand polished the rim on the rear wheel, got some beringer bars and stripped the forks
well pleased with it.  still want to get an S&M seat and grips but will have to wait for funds
