Title: Stratton Super Aero finished on page 2
Post by: Jaymz on December 13, 2014, 02:12 PM
 I'm building this low ender around the padset, just so I can use it.

So here's the beginning of my

STRATTON 'BMX WORLDS' SUPER AERO

Forks are undergoing surgery as they've got a stem shaft stuck in them currently!

In the new year I'll be mooching for mid range parts in blue (chainring, seatclamp, seat etc), so keep that in mind for me lads

The forks have been saved today, had to run a 1" drill down them to get the stuck shaft out, other than that, nope  still need a load of bits to get going, not even got a headset yet!!

When you said 'doing a swannick' I wrongly assumed this meant you had fallen off your bike & slightly grazed yourself and was planning to remind us about it for years afterwards  :teef:

It's just not how I thought it would be, I built in in my head and it looked great, in reality it's not to my liking, I'm not really a fan of powdered coated bikes to be honest, I like good old fashioned chrome. It might be going as I've had a good offer for it already via Facebook

I love this build but i know how it is , sometimes you're just not feeling it when it's done ... In all honesty though, how much for the Shopping trolley ??? ;D :daumenhoch:

J, maybe you'll find the love for it, with a few subtle tweaks?  ???

If it were mine, I'd ditch the bars for some chrome race bars, with a straight top bar, and maybe a straight chrome seat post, a blue Tuff on the front also.

I like it and even better would be with chrome wheels....
