Title: Patterson - The Story Continues
Post by: Zippy on August 21, 2005, 01:04 AM

Well a few months ago I came accross a Patterson a friend of mine used to own. It was a bit minging but nonetheless I bought it with the intention of restoring it to it's former glory.

This was it before

I want to put a straight post in it and maybe change the wheels, but apart from that it's sorted.

Going to change the seatpost to a straight one.
Going to change the wheels as well, not sure what to swap them for though. Thinking of a set of Chrome Araya's. Possibly just change the hubs to a set of black TNT's instead.

Nice looking. Sneeky mix of old & new going on around the old crank area, nut it looks cool. Wrong shade of gold for the Ultra Burner look though. LOL
