Post by: stevesredvxr on September 28, 2012, 06:56 PM: I'm probably going get lynched here but....... I'm not too keen. :shocked:

Not too sure about it all, with the white frame, black wheels and cables, red parts and blue parts.
Freestyle bits and race bits........its just a bit confusing.

Really sorry pal.......and its just my two-penneth. Wether your arsed what I think or not is up to you!!...Probably not!! :)

Nice frame though. :daumenhoch:

Post by: christhejob on September 29, 2012, 07:09 AM: One tweak to keep the freestyle look, get a hollow stem bolt to run a pott's mod for the front brake. :)

Post by: deeman on September 30, 2012, 02:00 PM: I really like the freestyle look too,wanted one of these sooo bad bitd.As Kappy said,reckon Mk1 EZ's would look better.I think the platform represents that important transition time just before freestyle exploded. :daumenhoch:

Post by: M5AT on September 30, 2012, 02:19 PM: Looks ace, look good with a red lightning bolt, & maybe some skyway pegs to enhance the freestyleyness.

Love a freestyley TA me.
