Title: mk1 holmes
Post by: kev-s on February 15, 2014, 12:04 AM: its slowly coming along 8) 8)

i had a chrome mk1 holmes back in late 92/early 93 and always loved the yellow ones that jimmy levan & chris moeller had in feel my leg muscles im a racer.

so when this came up i had to have it even if ment saying goodbye to my zima frame and forks.

it will be built using a mix of parts spanning from 1990 to 1993 as thats what i originally used at the time.

mk1 holmes with og paint and decals & the correct s&m forks.
