Title: ** New Build Completed. **
Post by: beard1973 on September 05, 2006, 03:43 PM

Guess what... yes its another of the dreaded Burner Range...  8)

Finally I have a koisumi framed Raleigh Cromo Burner.

Despite 'under-handed' bidding...  :wink:  I have finally managed to get my hands on a lovely MK2 Cromo.

Was gonna keep this as a survivor/rider but its such a lovely frame I wanted it to be tip top!!

Its my favourite build to date...  8) As this build has taken shape in the spare room, I have found myself sat staring at it with a big smile on my face..

I love it.. I hope you guys do as well..

You must be fibbing, that was clearly found built up at the back of a shop somewhere in perfect condition rather than being put together. It just looks too new. Well done.

I feel a challenge coming on here....

Okay guys a Non-Burner build by Christmas... am planning to come along to the Rad Xmas do, so will have it done for then...

It won't be a TA or Gen1 or Quad or Ripper... but it won't be a Burner...  8)

Gotta start somewhere..  ;)
