Title: Don't laugh or i'm going home........
Post by: Bfellows on January 26, 2014, 03:56 PM

Started as a bit of fun, but I've decided to finish it........ as is tradition I have taken several arty shots in the kitchen including one of a brake cable.........

You can blame Clint and Chris for this as they are mostly responsible for what you see amongst others...... and obviously there is no point anyone entering bike of the month anymore now this beauty is up and running.

19 something Batavus (not really sure.......)
Wheels - 2
Brakes - 2 (even has cables and a chain fitted!)
Seat and bars - Yes
Decals - Del did me proud!
Other bits - pink

Loving that Bert, would never guess it was the same frameset  :4_17_5:

Just goes to show that frames dont have to be labeled as one type or another.
If i had thought it could look so cool as a freestyler i woudn't have sold it  :D

how i had it:

..it's because it's depressed  ;D   ...Nah, just kidding, i love it, it's batavus - everybody should have one, i think. Also like that you gave it a new guise, something fresh. It's the blue ones that were haunting me anyway :D
Nice one, Bert-man :daumenhoch: ...lets see how it rides
