Title: messed about today
Post by: oldschoolrb on September 05, 2011, 06:22 PM
bin feeling a lot better today but thats a different story , so had a little play with a bike  . i tried to sell my felt 24 a while back but to no joy ,it did look battered to be fair but offered it up for a good price . my lads did call it dads rat bike  ;D but it was a nice ride rolling round or on the track. so today i thought im going strip it and give it a powdercoat and have a bit of a change from ridding my 24 quad . well i was pretty pleased with how it came out so i built it up with some tat ! now i know its no show stopper but i like it  :)

it was like this

Same F&F as my racebike. Mine is big enough for me but still fairly compact, and has never let me down despite being raced hard and jumped a bit. Doesn't flex hardly either, which is a bonus when you're my size :daumenhoch:
