Right, Streetbeat done, now it's time for this one...
(http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n559/Gatters/Ammaco%20Freestyle%20Pro/DSC01191.jpg)
Ammacp freestyle pro, still deciding on chrome or powder, chrome is real good, few bits to sort but looking like a chrome build I think.
-
Keep it chrome :daumenhoch:

chrome chrome chrome
very nice :daumenhoch:

keep it chrome :daumenhoch:

I think chrome and black with white walls as they came. :daumenhoch:

a killer combo!! :daumenhoch:
-
Don't loose the plot wit the budget, these were not expensive bitd!
Chrome and black with a opc is the way forward bud, and keep it sensible money, it's more fun that way ;-)
-
How about some candy color over the chrome :coolsmiley:
-
This wont be an expensive build but I want it will look good! The chrome is real nice, a few areas to coke and foil but not to much to worry about and then just sourcing the parts.
Cheers for feedback :daumenhoch:
-
Some progress made, not spending a great deal on this one but I think it will still look good when finished.
So far it has SR style OPC, Tioga spider, sugino ring, SX pedels(need some work yet), SR stem at mo ( have another to go on) EZ bars, ame rounds, NOS tech 4's with hutch calipers(may change) minty alloy hub tuff's and a NOS beartrap 2 :daumenhoch: Just a seat and new chain and some of Del's finest with a bit of polish/resto we're good to go :daumenhoch:

very nice :daumenhoch: like the geometry on these frames dp haro cross :coolsmiley:
-
last time i looked there were a set of nos chrome ammaco freestyle bars on ebay,bit like dp/ladder bars for about 35 squid.seller is called bankrupt bike bits.hes had em ages keeps relisting.cant get more original than that!
-
LOving that and the colourway choice too.
Always liked these as there such a nice ride, well balanced and RAD.
Keeping an eye on this build, freestyle baby :4_17_5:
-
Yeeeeh nice looking bike there!
-
Almost finished building my pro up too, my bike bitd. Chrome was shot on mine so I've switched it around and have chrome on black.
Just need to sort the brakes out and I'm 95% stock. Lovely frame that
-
Have to say those Ammaco freestylers are very nice looking frames indeed and always seem to build into nice bikes. A very under-rated frame I think.

Hi
The Ammaco's starting to look great.
I've included below the spec for the pro taken from a magazine. I used it to try and keep my one as close as possible, I only changed the wheels to alloy hubbed black tuffs instead of the Ukai's it came with.
Thanks for your comments on my Curtis Freestyler the other day, it was really nice to get so many comments.
Good luck finishing it
I did take your advice and i'm on the look out for my next build :daumenhoch:
Cheers
Rich

Thx for comments and spec list, I have changed it around again and gone for the chrome/black look now, but not 100% sure as yet....using a Haro seat which to be honest I'm not keen on either...little way to go but......it does ride well, totally different to my streetbeat but I do like it in the bowl.
Will get some pics up when its done.
Cheers again :daumenhoch:
-
ammaco 8)looking great mate wish i had kept mine :'(
-
Might settle for the black/chrome combo I think.......

Just need to sort out the shimano SX and decals and it's pretty much there.....ish, just not over keen on the seat, needs a areo :daumenhoch:
-
looks well,i agree decals and an aero=sweet! :daumenhoch:
-
Morning all it's been a while and have missed some quality BMX time but finally making some progress on the ammaco, I know the haro bars are wrong but I like to ride with these bars, when it gets hung on a wall some CW bars with go on :daumenhoch:
Hope you like so far, will get some nicer pics up when the sun comes out.

Phil,
That looks lovely. Nice one.

This looks sweet mate, I fancy one of these someday myself, possibly a Koolstyler. :smitten: :daumenhoch:
-
Looks good dude!
Chrome looks to be in very nice shape, this is the same colourway as mine bitd :smitten:
If you want the correct stock bars (usually CW type or Renthals depending where you bought from) check this out. Cheap and the exact bars they came with, have some on mine
