so today i thought id try to upload a picture or two. ive created myself a photobucket account and so far i reckon im doing ok.
heres a couple of pics of my s&m bennet. ive had this frame since it came out (i sold it at one point but bought it back) and have reconditioned it a few years ago. the frame was black with chrome and black components in the glory days but when i re powdered it i though id go with bright yellow (marvin loetterle rode a bright yellow one at one point) most of the parts are the originals i was riding back then... lord knows how i actually did anything on it because no joke, it weighs a farkin tonne! anyways itll be good to see what you think. cheers doug

Looks cool in yella
Like you say they a heavy ole beast and a bit short I found.
Looks like it was no problem though in that last picture :slayer:

cheers dordy. yeah, i changed from a holmes when i bought this frame (in '99 i think) so it was quite a shock when i first rode it as the toptube was just under 21" but the back end felt like half the length of the holmes rear triangle. ;D

Cheers lads. Yeah I was happy when it came back from the powder coaters, it was a big step because my bikes were never any colour other than black before I did that haha.
Ive still got my first 1.1/8 frame in the cellar, its a holmes but its in a very bad way. Currently im workin on a standard 250 and a hoffman flash. Im not rushing though, they get finished when they get finished. Whats your love/ hate relationship then jaymz?

Some days I look at it and it's the ugliest thing in the world and I hate it and pit it up for sale, other days I just love it and take it for a blast and smile all the way

Looking sweet!! :daumenhoch:

Haha fair do's. Just got to get the tweaks right mate, the Devil is in the details. It looks exactly like my mates old one. Proper street/ skatepark tank ;)
