Title: DYNO zone revamp. A bit of all school really. UPDATED
Post by: Mark1 on January 29, 2013, 12:19 PM: Just thought id share this with you all get a bit of feedback good or bad im thick skinned. Im really pleased how its come together and just wanted to build something that i liked the look of rather than correct really. So here we go, bought a 98 Dyno zone off the bay for £20 which looked like this

Bit of an ugly duckling really but i really like the frame shape and style and have seen a few stickered up as old school compes so thats what i thought i would do.
Heres the results. Going to Romford Friday so i'll see how she rides. Like i said just wanted to build a cool looking bike.

Cheers Gav. I really like the look of it also the Mid School Dyno's are cheap as chips still. A good base for a retro looking project.

Post by: Mark1 on February 14, 2013, 08:35 AM: Tried some 1.75 whitewalls and i think they suit it better. Primo's were just a bit chunky looking i felt after keep looking at it.

Post by: Mark1 on April 24, 2013, 09:51 AM: Cheers guys :) But its changed again :uglystupid2: Kenda k55 tyres of which seem really good, only read 40psi max on the wall but i have them pumped to about 65psi with no distortion or issues and they ride really well. Also added a gyro which i think finishes it of really. Here you go,

Come on Gav! What plans you got for yours?

I know yeah, ive been building other things and pratting around really lol.

Well I think ive pretty much got all I need for it now....just gotta get it powdered.

Ive got some Skyways for it and some nice ACS levers, mallet stem etc so it should look pretty cool. All the bits are together in a box....sat next to another box full of bits for my 93 Vertigo that also needs powder lol. Ill get there in the end ;D
