I bought this some time ago off Jai and have finally got round to putting it all together and finishing it off  :)

Everything was running smoothly until it came to fitting the rear brake....which was a bit of a game but its on, it works, and its cool  :daumenhoch:

Spec:

NOS 2-Hip Pork frame and forks
NOS 2-Hip Juice bars in black
NOS red Jive grips
black Tech 77 lever
Red slik cable
Dia Compe AD990 rear brake
S&M Redneck stem - stripped and lightly polished
Amoeba parts Head Lock
Generic headset with red spacers
NOS chrome Araya Super 7x rims
NOS Peregrine Phat Jacks hubs
Red spokes and chromey nips
NOS red 1.75 Primo V-Monsters
Triple seatpost clamp
NOS Fusion post
Odyssey 99'er seat
GT Profile 180mm cranks
Odyssey Richard Gear 44T Chainring
Red Profile hop up BB
Primo Pedals

Just need to get hold of some black bar ends for it  :daumenhoch:
