White T/A's are awesome :smitten:
Looking lovely is it a rider ? :daumenhoch:
If funds allow and you're keeping it a while it would be worth changing a few of the bits for era correct bars etc
suvivor bits aren't that dear , but look so right
Nice work Matt :)

Cheers All,
All mine are riders. :daumenhoch:
If you know any bars that fit the bill, please let me know. These Haro's just looked a little 'better' than the ez's I have.
Keeping the twin pinch as it's a rider and you can't go wrong with the latest sealed bb's. ;D
Darren had already fitted the headset so didn't feel the need to swap that.

Cee-Dubs would work well on a T/A rider. Era correct and not hideously expensive. Getting a rusty set powdered shouldn't cost the earth (if you want white bars)

Cheers ozone.
Asked TJ about his ones. Also just picked up a pair off the bay (for spraying) and we'll see which ones look best! :daumenhoch:

This is looking good mate, did you have the bule on the decal made in a brighter shade of blue? Or is that the flash making look like that?

They were a Del set, made with a chrome border. :daumenhoch:
-
Shaping up very nicely indeed Matt :smitten:
-
Yeah i saw the boarder and guess they were custom it was just the blue bit i wondered if you had asked for a brighter lighter shade as i was thinking something along those lines myself for mine. So it matched up better with the blue anno'd parts.
:4_17_5: is the perfect emoticon for a ta build :4_17_5:
-
taking shape nicely :daumenhoch:
-
Looking good fella. THE iconic BMX in my opinion :daumenhoch:
-
Awesome Matt !
It's made the hard task of selling it better seeing it built up , and just the way I,d have gone too , black tuffs and anno blue :daumenhoch:
Loving it can't wait to see more !
( X-ray on Friday and fingers crossed back to work soon )

The top section is a Tange locking setup, standard 'plain' headset below that. :daumenhoch:

Always keep me eye out for a TA, just a classic. How can you not want one ;)
Even better in white than chrome for me.

Well, it's now altogether and I'm really pleased with how it's turned out. Not really 100% on these seats so that'll probably go at some point, but it is comfy. ::)

Matt,
I am loving your builds and the rate you are knocking them out.
Top work.
No recession in the Matt household !!
Shame the weather is pants as I would love to see these in the flesh.
-
Looks very nice Matt. Nearly as nice as mine. ;D
Will that be your London ride?
-
Thank you. The weather isn't really stopping me riding, rode to work this morning! ;D (erm, not on the ta though)
Where abouts are you then? This'll be at the December London ride if it's not chucking it down!

I'm at your work Matt, its Tony, the guy who doesn't go on any of the rides but loves BMX and loves seeing everyone's good work on here !
I take it the TA won't be ridden to work ?

It sure does look better, the blue matches the grips better too. It's a little marked the aero, but it's being ridden so all's good. :daumenhoch:
