Title: 2012 condor makeover
Post by: egg on April 07, 2013, 09:14 AM
i've been putting in the overtime lately so thought i'd treat myself to a few bits to get the condor looking nice.i didn't like the white on it and tried to get a similar theme to how i had the original in 92.looks much better now i think :)

Got some Bone Death Deadman bars on the way for my SX ... they look sweet ( thanks again to Fugazi for pointing me at them  :angel: )

I think that looks so much better  :daumenhoch:

I've got two of these now, my Blue one & I have the New Chrome one that is being kept safe in the Radbmx Shop for me, not sure weather to build it or not  :-\

I think Paul M Chrome one is the best Chrome one I've seen  :smitten:

I love them as well  :daumenhoch: did have a tan wall get a bulge in it though, might have been a dodgy One. blackwall's I had were fine.
