No word on mine yet,  but I opted for the cheapest, slowest postage to keep the cost down. Then that damn hurricane came and added time to the deal.

Post by: weston on November 03, 2005, 07:22 PM
spoke to ginni & you should get yours anytime now as they are in the post... stop worrying, this is a one man operation with hundreds of worldwide orders a day, if its in the post you should get it before next weekend

Post by: Zippy on November 03, 2005, 07:35 PM
Ed's a top guy but He's slow. I understand the whole one man band, worldwide business thing.
However so much time goes buy between ordering and delivery that you forgot what you ordered in the first place.

Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Moose on November 18, 2005, 04:29 PM
I'm pleased to say mine have arrived - from Ginny. So there will be at least 1 'custom colour' Streetbeat built in the new year (if not 2 or maybe 3)  :)
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: dordymush on November 18, 2005, 04:42 PM
what colour ya thinking or is it secret ;).
you seen that blue version of mine.
well cool i thought.
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Moose on November 18, 2005, 05:06 PM
I've a couple of idea's, but I'm not letting on just yet ;)

Surfice to say that I'm a real 80's child (as you can see by my Sport and Kuwi) and won't be breaking too far 'from the mould'  :D
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Zippy on November 18, 2005, 10:26 PM
I've just decided what colour mine is going to be and I'm well chuffed with it. I think you'll all like it.

I noticed on the other site they were going to have a street beat build contest. How about we have one as well.

Any one up for it.
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Moose on November 18, 2005, 10:34 PM
I'm in the contest on 'the other site'.

If we were doing one also, I'd be up for that as well.
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Zippy on November 18, 2005, 10:41 PM
I think we should just set a deadline and say all streetbeats must be completed by say the end of march or april and just see what people come up with.
Then throw it out to all the members to vote for their favorite. Just as a bit of fun really rather than winning a prize.
What do you reckon.
I'm actually getting excited about building my streetbeat now (when I get it).
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Moose on November 18, 2005, 11:05 PM
I'll have at least 1 done by then, maybe 2.

Put up a seperate post and see if anyone else is interested - it'll be a bit pointless if it's just me & thee ;D

I get 'excited' about all my builds, the only problem is how long some of them take to collect the right parts.

I've got another build that I have everything for, but I've lost the headset....and it's a gold Hatta so it's not like I can go out and get another >:(
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: lloydieboy on November 19, 2005, 12:36 AM

Yeah Dord... the package ain't gone yet so no fears mate, i'll get em to you fella.

Post by: Tefore on November 21, 2005, 09:02 PM
zippy
ive emailed him 3 times and got tnothing back.
dont know about you but i paid for the faster insured shipping
getting a bit concerned now
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Zippy on November 21, 2005, 09:04 PM
Not exactly a rapid delivery is it.

That's why I put an end of march for the building contest so I stood a chance of getting the frame in time.

Ordered some Orange skyways off him as well.
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Frosty on November 22, 2005, 10:35 AM
How much are you all paying for shipping?

They is so cheap I would be mad to miss out on one of these.

Thanks

Paul
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: tricknuts on November 22, 2005, 11:06 AM
Maybe then its better to have a streetbeat delivery competition. The person who gets  delivery of their streatbeat before March wins!!, and we can post pictures of the Fedex boxes ;)
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats

Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: gmac on December 03, 2005, 07:01 PM
I think the f/f were only $50. It might be something else, but can't remember. Bought a pair of NOS Z-mags, but they were only $50 too. And a NOS set of CWs, but they weren't fortunes either. These were all from different sellers.

They don't work weekends, so I won't find out till Monday.
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: billstup on December 03, 2005, 07:09 PM
I`ve had a few things from the states just lately and they haven`t cost any extra, I have asked the sellers to lable them as second hand childrens bike parts and it seems to have worked  :coolsmiley:
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: gmac on December 03, 2005, 07:50 PM
Yeah, it's a bit of a wierd one. The only real 'duty' I had to pay, was on a $400 set of golf clubs, and that was only about $40. So god knows what this is all about ?
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: Frosty on December 05, 2005, 09:08 AM
The b*stard is that duty is calculated on the total costs inc postage :tickedoff:
Title: Re: Unpainted Streetbeats
Post by: gmac on December 05, 2005, 09:17 AM
Just spoken to Fed Ex, and it's not for the Streetbeat, it's for a something else that I had delivered weeks ago. Oh well, you win some, you loose some  :(

Here's mine with the wheels on it. Not letting on about the finish or what colour it's going to be yet though. I can guarentee it'll be a one off though and will either be loved or appalled by everyone that sees it. It'll be the marmite of bikes I can guarentee you.
