Post by: Del on September 10, 2006, 02:15 PM: its certianly different Mark. Seems like there's too much chrome to me, I think if the forks were also pink it would look better. Still a nice TA though.

Youve got too many as it is ;)

Colour scheme doesn't work for me, but damn good bike components-wise.

Nice one :P

Nice. looks fast and good mix of chrome and colour, maybe even the front with pink forks , or a cchrome brake to balance the front and back

I love to see something different. The only thing that might be worth doing is stripping and polishing the rear caliper ;)

Post by: se on September 10, 2006, 05:54 PM: Actually I really like that because it's different. Also the washing line sticking out of the headtube would be useful for drying socks. ;-)

Post by: mark j on September 10, 2006, 11:01 PM: Thanks for the comments chaps, wasn't really a build or labour of love, frame's been in a cupboard for a couple of years doing nothing and just cobbled it together yesterday for something to do with some left overs and some bits ponced off a hollywood. It'll be stripped and back in storage by tomorrow.....

Post by: mark j on September 13, 2006, 01:02 AM: My thoughts exactly Lee, f*ck 'em :yahoo_silent: I can't give you the redlines on the side though.........they bring out the best in a cheap mfi cabinet, would ruin the look of the room.....
