Yeah would prefer a kashi but funds are at an all time low and i still got to find some brakes, still it can always change futher down the road.

Still in need of Pedal advice peeps :0

Looks sweet so far Craig (other than the seat)  :LolLolLolLol: 

as for tyres?  i'd try some red panaracers or some of porkchops red comp st copies  :daumenhoch:
Pedals?  i'd go for silver as you run the risk of too much red (just my oppinion though)

what bars are they?  look like a fair bit of sweep to em!

Tyres....

just clicked on that link - but wasn't the elina I was hoping for  ;D

skki mate don't worry about the seat if you like it - admittedly it doesn't have the universal appeal as the elina UL, but it does have a certain futuristic 'concorde' quality nevertheless

probably best not to take seat advice from me though  ::)

Really great looking DP Skki  :daumenhoch:  :4_17_5: :4_17_5: :4_17_5:

It would look great as Brummie said white tyres tan walled ( panaracer or GT )

I agree with Dords on the seat ,, the Perigrinne are a freestyle orientated one afterall ,, more than a Kashi

But if it's deffo gonna be a rider I'd go cheap whitewalls

and silver pedals as the colour will wear off in no time and look tatty if you got red pedals   ::)

Skki  dont worry about the seat its fine for now  ::)  just get it built and ride it ,when i built my dp i just had to have a kashi aero on it BIG FOOKIN MISTAKE they just dont work on a freestyler ,yeh look good but try doin one of those fancy ET endo's megga bollock ripper  :LolLolLolLol: if you can afford one shot gun 11 is my advice  :smitten: :daumenhoch:

Post by: waza04 on March 24, 2011, 09:13 PM
thats looks nice mate, stick some keda whitewalls on and a set of red sx or something similar......  could always go for the aeroyal seat, big hit around here.  ;D
