Some really different parts choices, but very nice I might add.

I'm a big fan of the white/black/gold colour schemes - think it looks the bollox  :4_17_5:

Oh, and the pedals - if they're the ones that are similar shape to graphite-x's only alloy, I love 'em. Best choice for that Torker  :daumenhoch:

Post by: rollin72 on May 02, 2010, 12:11 PM
nice1 moose, your right about the pedals, i put a pair of dx's on 1st but the mks seemed to go better, as for the parts i try to restore as many things i can, i cant justify to myself spending big$$$$, if you can afford to then fair play to you, but i get more enjoyment taking something thats fooked and making it like new again :daumenhoch:
