Title: Help with my Mid School build
Post by: brettnai on April 14, 2007, 08:39 AM

Hello,
Can anyone help me with my first mid school bike?... Its my second only build... and third ever bike so please excuse my lack of knowlage.

I bought this bike off the bay recently, only for the frame as its quite rare. I stripped it down to f+f's yesterday and am now ready to think about what to put on it. I know the forks are of the wrong era, but its unlikely I'd find the originals. Wheels + tyres?... Harris gave me a few names yesterday but I've not had much luck in finding any. Bars, I'm not massively keen on the GT ones, I know Bully also make Nudie bars but are they more new school?

I have replaced the stem with a nice mid school DB one, which looks sweet.

Help!

What will you give me to take those mags off your hands  :LolLolLolLol:
, serious now, my lad could do with them, pm me if you want rid of em ( with a "posted price" )  :daumenhoch:

And as for the bully, dont be too purist is my advice, mix it up with some new technology, oh and when its built, wring its neck on every dry day (rust is bad :shocked:) -Ride it like you stole it :LolLolLolLol:

As for the Bully, its a sweet frame, just finding it hard to find bits. First on my list is some Peregrine HP Super Pro's
