Post by: oldtired on May 03, 2011, 08:44 PM: well, thanks for all the comments chaps , much appreciated :daumenhoch: so you reckon its nice little project then? sourced a few other components and i'm thinking its leaning towards a freestyle build always fancied making it a bit of styler rathr than the more usual racing Quad , up to now then there's

1 Quad Frame :smitten: :smitten:

2 Rickman Freestlye Bars :smitten:

3 GT Seatpost with DP Power Post essential extra stength for decades :daumenhoch:

4 Skyways nothing else to say realy :smitten:

Post by: oldtired on May 06, 2011, 10:34 AM: thought i might keep those interested updated as to to the progress on this one , a few more components sorted, its never easy is it choosing between parts

brake is sorted although its a freestyle build i though i might just go for the one brake , can rockwalk without a front anyhow so. also means i dont have to risk any more sliced up finger tips digging out the Giro and Pots mod :LolLolLolLol:

DC MX 1000 with centering adjuster

Powerglide cable

DC Tech 3

Tuff Pads all :smitten:

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/ff98/jimjdld/bmx/brake.jpg)

Head set and BB

Tange 320

unsure about BB might be Oddy ?

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/ff98/jimjdld/bmx/hsbb.jpg)

Tyres ...... going to be a rider so cheap ones will do tubes sorted too

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/ff98/jimjdld/bmx/tyres.jpg)

Stem two to choose from here

Classic SR or a bit more unusuall Torker 6Bolt :-\ like the torker personally :smitten:

Post by: Spen69 on May 06, 2011, 10:43 AM: That SR will polish up a treat Jim, but if not, I've got 3 bolts that will fit the Torker so as long as you only turn left you'll be fine :daumenhoch:

FPMSL :2funny:

Oh, second dib dobs on it if the sale with Pooch falls through - it's looking like a BoTM winner for sure. Rakas had better watch out on BoTY, his Ripper's gonna have to be something extra special to beat this bad-boy :shocked:
