Title: FST look alike
Post by: curtispro on March 18, 2011, 11:03 PM: I was given a mid school diamond back a few weeks ago so I thought I would build a rider for the other half to roll around on, it had the super bike dan treatment :smitten: a touch from del, bits from Brett a mix of repo cra#p, and a few bits from the shed, what do ya think?

Haha I wanted the Mike Domigez ( spelling) ones but couldnt find any and didn't want to spend loads on having some drawn :LolLolLolLol:, and didn't want the diamond shiny type, I built it for a sponsored bike ride (for wifey) I am organising to raise money to get a BMX track built, the bike started as a bit of a laugh and ended up like this :smitten:

And the colour of the decals does work with the frame colour :daumenhoch:

I reckon a set of budget blue gumwall tyres will finish it off though :daumenhoch:

Post by: curtispro on March 20, 2011, 02:58 PM: Yea, I am still unsure of the tyres, too much pinkness :LolLolLolLol: need to get some gum or skinwalls on it in blue or pink.
