Title: MORALES Build update
Post by: TORKER mick on September 20, 2012, 11:18 AM: Hi All,

Here are a couple of pics of my MORALES Flatlander I bought F/F's of Dan Harris at MK.

I will do more pics when completed hopefully by next week

The MORALES is now complete after a couple of changes from the pics above:
Changed Bars to Hoffman Love Handles
Levers to Tech 99
Front Brake to a BOA
Tyres to Odyssey 20x1.90
Shimano DX's powdered by SBD

Cheers for looking :daumenhoch:

Everyone agrees the seat has to go ..
Those tires are also not the best choice.. no flatlander would use such a wide a clunky tire.

By the way, if anyone is looking for a Morales frame, I will probably sell mine..

Post by: harris on September 20, 2012, 07:46 PM: i still love og v monster skin wall,very usable very nice,they do remakes modern but not good on high pressure .
Title: Re: MORALES Build
Post by: outriding on September 21, 2012, 11:37 AM: Primo V-monster or Wall, ACS TRUE, maybe even Haro Multisurface II. Or you can get newschool Odyssey Frequency G tires.
Plastic seats would be mostly used like a Primo Steroid or GT, if you want a more comfortable ride Primo Hemorrhoid, Odyssey 99er would be the top choices.
