Title: STR-1 Stu Thomsen Rep "UPDATES" nearly done
Post by: Jono on December 18, 2014, 11:11 PM: couldnt bring myself to use NRP's so heres where we're up to frame n forks back from SBD, tange headset, goose gold stem, Gen 1 addicks spider bolts and nylon chainring uni hammerhead sets, araya 7Bs rear at shop having coaster hub fitted back for Saturday oury grips on way from usa, bars are at present lost!!! needs a shim for seat a takagi MX opc and a PL-1 seat clamp (stead of the cooks bros copy (helix) that ive rounded off a bit with a file i know it was suggested i put repop bits on coz its a johnny chopper but the whole idea was to do a str-1 rep n i dont know where to get repop 70's bits i have however conceded not buying a £200+ seat clamp n asked clint if he can knock me one up what do you think so far (dels decals due anytime)

Johnny chopper str-1 frame n cyclepro forks n Dels Decals
araya 7Bs rear relaced with og spokes n nos shimano coaster
carlisle aggressor mx front tyre and cheng shin rear
takagi mx opc
addicks gen1 spider and bolts with addicks nylon chainring
nos kkt rat traps (thanks Senzo)

NRP helix (cooks copy) clamp til a pl-1 turns up or clint makes me one
white oury waffle grips

just bars to sort SE Maxi, Race Inc or FMF all pretty much the same i think

100% agreed,

I will make this an admin decision, Jono is not allowed to enter his bike in ANY radbmx S&S comps (BOTM, BOTY, MK S&S etc etc), unless he recreates that Stu Thomsen photo, complete with grumpy face.

Any attempt to enter a comp without the picture being put up at some stage will mean that his entry is deleted by me :LolLolLolLol:

Sorry Jono mate, you are doing the ultimate replica bike, so you have to replicate it the whole way :LolLolLolLol:
Title: Re: STR-1 Stu Thomsen Rep
Post by: Mat on December 19, 2014, 09:59 AM: Ha, ace.

I'll do you the shot Jono, I even have the shitty brown backdrop required! :daumenhoch:
