Looks a bit survivor ish at the moment but when I get the Sheriff Stars the whole thing will get overhauled and cleaned so it's shines like a new penny.

Love it Adam. Checkered parts are so BMX. Look forward to seeing it at MK :daumenhoch: By the way, you're still a fooker. :LolLolLolLol:
-
I think it looks really really good like that Adam :4_17_5:
-
Looks cool :daumenhoch: , headangle looks slack ! :shocked:
-
It could be worse. :daumenhoch:
-
Adam that's shit, try harder next time!!!! ;)
:4_17_5:
-
i think thats your best build adam,little stunner.a profile is on my want list,i think if i can build one then im done for sure :crazy2:
-
Love it adam, looks fooking short mind
-
Some nice parts used on it but i'm not convinced on the bars at the moment. As they're pro bars they look out of proportion to the rest of the bike. It's only my opinion though which doesn't count for anything i know. :-\
Love to see TC cranks on a build, very much under used. Stickers for them were for sale on the Museum last week. :daumenhoch:
-
Nice that is Adam :smitten:
-
Chrome and Gold! Love it.

It is mate, although its called a mini, it's more of an expert size, Shelby James was Fookin big for his age.

I know what you mean Andy but I couldn't put them on anything else, they are Pro bars but cut down to about 25.5" so they're too small for a pro sized bike but maybe a little tall for this? Didn't want to waste a set of Profile bars basically.
As for he Terrycable decals, I hav some which Dan Diesel sent me with the spider I just forgot to put them on. :idiot2:
Thanks for all the comments though guys, it's good to hear all opinions. :daumenhoch:

A longer stem would probably look work better IMO, still a very cool looking ride pal :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch: and your trademark clown seat too :D :4_17_5:
-
That is sick :coolsmiley:

Great build I like it all apart from the seat don't think it really suits it.

That is a stunner Adam, one the best builds I have seen this year.

Lovely frame and forks that Adam 8)
Nice build , looking forward to seeing it with the tweeks mentioned , especially the Campy sheriff stars hubs :smitten:
-
That is seriously nice Adam - you don't half know how to chuck a little'un together :smitten:
-
Looks like its been on a hot cycle in the washing machine!
Has good OS aesthetic. ;)
-
Wow, I'm honestly quite surprised with the amount of positive comments this bike has got. I like it but it's nowhere near the top of my collection in my view. I also see what some people are saying about the seat, I'm not totally convinced of it either but I didn't have anything else kicking about. Cool seat for sure but maybe not on this bike.
I've found a set of 28 hole Sheriff Stars in Italy but its proving hard work to part them from the seller. :knuppel2:
Thanks again guys. :daumenhoch:

Cool as Fcuk that is ! 8)
-
Lovely that Adam ...........but the seat :tickedoff:
-
Looks great :daumenhoch:
Before you strip the spider though you might want to swap it here first as that one is the nicest I've seen in this condition - Be a sin to strip and polish it when you can do that with another one of lesser condition. You spider your choice of course
-
"big thanks as usual goes to Steve for building it for me"
do you sit in a big chair and get fit women to feed you grapes whilst its being built?
You should. Its a great look :daumenhoch:
-
Hey Adam, I have a polished Terry Cable spider I'd trade for your black one it you are interested, would save stripping that lovely looking one :daumenhoch:

Now there's an idea.Hey Adam, I have a polished Terry Cable spider I'd trade for your black one it you are interested, would save stripping that lovely looking one :daumenhoch:
I did have someone who wanted to swap but haven't heard from him since so I guess he's changed his mind.
I might strip this bike anyway, not really convinced I like it enough. :-\

Missed this first time round, great little Profile build, love the chrome and gold :coolsmiley:
