Post by: WINI on June 01, 2011, 11:27 PM: Like the proverbial bus's, I suddenly seem to have gone from one complete bike to 5 well on the way with another coming in. The bug has well and truley bitten! Heres a preview, hopefully they will be getting finished in the coming weeks/months

Ammaco Freestyle Pro (Gonna be my rider as bitd)
GT 85 World Tour (Someone has to pick up Costa's torch...)
DP Firebird Freestyler
Skyway TA (in a freestyle stylee)
Vincent Airzone

and a Rebel freestyler at the powdercoaters being blinged up in a custom black flip paintjob

Good job I've fook else to do!

Cheers mate. Gonna ride a couple of em, but not quite brave enough for the TA or GT after the work I've put in! That may change in time mind ;D

Maybe stick one in next months BOTM for a laugh. They ain't up to the standard of some of the beauties on here, but all been done for a sensible budget so far :daumenhoch:

Post by: WINI on June 02, 2011, 09:04 AM: Thanks fella's, nowt like a bit of encouragement to spur you on to finish! Still got a fair few parts I want to swap over (blue tyres on the TA etc) and a fair bit to get hold of yet (need a red anno MX seat clamp, red DC rear cable, tyres etc etc etc) along with a bit of resto needed on certain parts but nearly there!

Got a Pro Class stem on the Ammaco oldschoolrb, needs a proper polish of the cap to make it look sweet. Anyone here do a polishing service that doesn't involve KY Jelly? ;D

I'm not sure it will be ready in time for MK to be honest. I'd love to say it will but then I have a deadline and it feels like work... :LolLolLolLol:

I'll keep you informed on the progress Katie, esp when I get round to dying the Tuffs I have on the way to the correct shade of blue! :idiot2:

Post by: griff on July 12, 2011, 10:26 PM: very nice mark

I'm just shy of finishing build #3 (when I said I'd only do one ;D)

not sure what next for me, apart from riding them that is :daumenhoch:

keep us updated on progress!
Title: Re: Closing in on finishing 5 builds
Post by: WINI on July 13, 2011, 07:00 PM: Sadly the Vincent had to go to make room for the 'other' one, and as you haven't been paying attention (apart from Spen), I'm not telling ;D ;D

Yeah Griff, I started with the 'only one' philosophy.....Now I can't get in the spare bedroom
