Title: Frosty new build.
Post by: oberonspacefruit on January 23, 2007, 11:49 AM
Still got a few bits to complete this, and im in a bit of a dilemma about form over function, but ive thought about it too much now, so here are some pics. should really have a bulldog on the front and a one piece crank. I have them both. maybe i will put them on. who knows.

oh, and thanks for the help dave.

Nice one Phil - looking rad mate. Really glad you're showing it some love and that you're gonna ride it!

I would keep the 3-piece and the AD on the front...so many were ridden like that. The 1-piece and the bulldogs were more for the standard complete bike.

Anyhow, loving it dude.

A couple of questions though:

1) Where the feck did you get that seat? Is it a NOS one?
and
2) Why the feck did I get rid of that frame?!

heh thanks carl. yeah its a rider.

had it down to bones, and i must say if feels beautiful.

ive had a few bikes now and its all ....meh.

so its unusual when you ride one that really stands out from the rest.

it just seems to want to turn in the air, its like its saying, come on, ill show you.

which, to be truthful, is handy for me.

Post by: Stodgy on January 25, 2007, 02:57 PM
yeah,...i suppose your right......

Change them when you retire it Phil...not worth wearing out the period stuff...

Post by: darkersomeday on January 26, 2007, 01:06 AM
yeah,...i suppose your right......

not right, just pedantic!

great build up there.

what would be the correct period? maybe primo logo's, longnecks or jive handles?
