Post by: woody allen bars on November 10, 2007, 07:35 PM: Both very clean builds 8)

Especially like the downtube sticker on the Dirt Bike and the 1" Redneck conversion. Very tidy. The bashguard is a nifty additon too :daumenhoch:

But lose the bash guard on the Dirtbike FFS ::)
Title: Re: a couple of my new builds s&m
Post by: harris on November 10, 2007, 07:48 PM: no can do mate ,the bash guard must stay as the frame had one before and it marked the frame
with 2 lines a tad so it went back on .

Title: Re: a couple of my new builds s&m
Post by: SaMAlex on November 10, 2007, 07:53 PM: both very nice Dan, great bikes. Painted will always be better than chrome!!
You dont often see bikes with Prince Albert cranks on um, let alone 2 bikes with PAs!!

Taff willl sh1t it when he seen his old dirtbike. We got the frame shipped over direct from S&M (it was just Moeller at that time). S&M were being distributed by Hotwheels and 'everything at your leisure', but it was before Backyard and custom riders were bringing them in. We got the frame for much cheaper than it would have been, trade from Hotwheels. BUT, it took weeks and weeks to come, and when it did, the Import charges took it to almost the exact cost as one from Hotwheels (that would have come the next day). It never looked that good when Taff had it .... but it was chrome! haha.

Post by: thesku11s on November 15, 2007, 11:02 AM: nice bikes there mate :daumenhoch:

I think dirtbikes look better "no frills" though with less tat stuck on,

a pure bmx "dirt" bike !

I still have that S&M heavy-as-f*ck (which really isnt that heavy)

i think you expressed an interest in it a short while ago.

I dont have the time to build it up right now, nor the space to store it when I do!

But it would be a smashing mid-school freestyle build.

- a rare & special offerring from s & m, which would look great with your pegs, haemorroid seat, bashguard, skinwall freestyle tyres & such.

the style of it, would really suit being laden with mid-school parts.

Where as the clean non-nonsense lines of the dirt bike definteley suit a minimal "dirt" look.
