I`ve not been long back on the scene, so I would like your comments on my build so for. The purists might not like my bikes but comments anyway.

Fook the purist's :D :LolLolLolLol:
All 3 are cracking looking bikes 8)
That cali looks awesome with the skinny pro class on :coolsmiley: ripper looks classy as hell with some nice parts on and the Kuwi looks great for a custom build , possibly a bigger chainring :-\
Nice work Tony :daumenhoch:
-
Thanks for the comments.
Matt the goose was my 12th birthday prezzy in 83, one post I had BITD the other from fleebay last year.
Pickle, Ive adjusted the bars now.
Norty40 The rear hub is a suntour casette with a 14T so I had to go small on the front. I looked for ages for a bigger rear sprocket but no joy.

Sod the purist's :2gunsfiring_v1:, what's 'not' to like about those build's :smitten:
Job well done fella :4_17_5:
-
DAMN! Tony, I love all them bikes bro ;) You done an awesome job :coolsmiley:
If you're riding the Kuwi, don't be afraid to put a 43T on the front. I run a 43 with a 14T on one and a 44 with a 14T on the other of my Direct links. Both are great gearing. I also use 175 arms which I guess you have too.
Great stuff :)
-
All 3 are tops, love that goose :4_17_5:
