Title: Before and after pics of my current rider
Post by: Rake on August 24, 2007, 03:27 AM: '02 Mirra Flair, bought for $40 earlier this year.

Raw finish, but the previous owner had removed the clearcoat to let it rust intentionally. :wtf:

Looking good. :daumenhoch:

If you want a Fly chainring, I have a few of the smallest ones they do 25T at the moment £35 posted - http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=42762.0

Alternatively if you want one that are the 37T / 38T mark, I can do them for £22 posted.

PM me if you want pics / colours / sizes etc.
