I still need 9/16 spindles for the mks bm-7's to go on this :daumenhoch:
-
Very nice bud. :daumenhoch:
Bars look a little too modern/freestyle for my taste, personally i'd stick some V bars on it and maybe some rat traps :)
-
The rat traps i bought for was wrong spindle size i am an :Aresehole: was going to buy v bars but just thought these looked ok,ah well i will get a build rite yet :2funny: >:D :daumenhoch:
-
There is no such thing as a wrong build - if you enjoyed it and like it that really is all that counts but you did invite comments :D
I have v bars on my MXII because I love the bars on early BMX. If you need any, I can help you out but thats NOT why I suggest them. ;D
-
Everytime i had V bars on a bike when i was alot younger they use to snap on me,a had a sore face a brave ween of times lol but i might look for a nice set of V's for it,also finished my decade thank god take a butchers at it :daumenhoch:
-
Nice that Graham :daumenhoch: You have your own BMX production line at the moment :D
Agree with Chris on the V bars and his comment on '' if you like it and enjoyed building it that's all that counts'' . It's your bike mate .... build it how you want it ;) My 79 MXII will be getting V bars but im drawing the line at the rat traps because i hate them !!
Now get onto the next one , i expect to see it by weekend :D
-
another nice bike! do you just build bikes all day mate? lol. whats next off the line??
-
Doesn't have to be rat traps but something more in keeping with its era so maybe Lightnings, MP1000 or BM-7s if you're not wanting to blow too much cash :daumenhoch:

LOL well you never know might have one or two by the end of the weekend :crazy2: well if my head would ease fooking split it lastnight on the decade bars before id the grips on the spun round full whack and i got it on the head,bloody sore :'( lol
i dont think my pedals go with the bike but it was the only spindles that fitted as i had 4 sets apart to try and get them in the mks rat's but no joy,need spindles for them do you know where or who might have a set? :daumenhoch:
-
Cheers guys,i wish i could build bikes allday instead of working it would be bloody great :D,hmmmm now to look for pedals etc

Another great build. :radbmxsmilie:

Are you purly oldschool or do you have some mid school things knocking around in that grotto of yours too?
-
mostly old school Ed but there is some mid school in there aswell and still some in the spare bedroom old/mid school :daumenhoch:
-
cardinal sin to not have 'V' bars on an old redline.... ;)
-
Yeah i know,going to buy a set of v bars for it then i'll post a pic when i get them on :daumenhoch:
-
I suppose a set of 20 1.5 rims on it? blue or chrome/silver :daumenhoch:
-
Finally got the V's on it now just the pedals also changed the stem and the brakes as there would have been to much blue with the bars,levers,grips :daumenhoch:
-
Nice one Graham , V'bars are much better 8)
