Title: Torker MX
Post by: Kaner on March 25, 2012, 11:14 AM: I finished building this (first attempt) yesterday and took it down to the Volksworld show. Thank god I took it, traffic was a nightmare, I ditched the car in the woods 2 miles away and rode it to the event.

This is the first incarnation of it, I will be changing the crank to a Tagaki OPC and the BB to a Tioga, I may also change the pedals as they well used, and i need a pad set for it. I will also try it with ACS Z-rims and some Chrome UKAIs too at some point.

So here it is in its first incarnation:

Sets it off doesn't it Dave!

I would love some Araya Aeros for it, I love those wheel sets. I will pop the zedies on it and see how it looks.

Thanks for your comments.
