Thanks of course to Mr Rick Courteau but also to Johhny Severin for the repair on the frame.

Your bikes just get better and better,
What I like is most of your builds are before BMX arrived in this country, so most have never been seen here, I have never seen a Webco in the flesh....Well done mate :4_17_5:  :4_17_5:  :4_17_5:  :4_17_5:
