Quiet in this forum. I'm waiting on and hunting stuff for my Big Daddy. thinking of parting my Master to get a early BD and another Shorty frame.
whats everyone else up to?
-
Seems quiet generally at the moment.... Ebb and flow I suppose.
I've got a brand new Primo Casket stem for sale, if thats any use to anyone?
-
my place is like a bike shop at the moment,dont no what to get shot of and what next to build.

-
Tis indeed a quiet time - and im SO stuck as to what to do. I have about 14 framers and forks and ALL the parts to put on them, they are ll nicely stored away in storage boxes on our kitchen extension, and waiting to be built. The problem is the weather isnt giving me long enough to get them out and build them... also once theyre bult I literally have zero room, so would have to strip them downagain and pop em back instorage - Ive created my own viscious circle - SO i think im gonna gove myself one week in spring to build them all then strip down again - then get em ready for MK 08. I have every single part for every build. all waiting to go!!!
Here's what Ive got waiting to be built
97 anodised green pk ripper xl
91 PK Ripper anodised Purple
91 pk ripper candy blue
85 pk ripper black and all gold components

Did someone say Big Daddy? Made some changes to mine. I may swap the sprocket for a 40T, the 36 makes the chain hit the 990. Makes a terrible noise.

The forks aint that hard to get, its the 1" (or just under 1") clamp on stem that is the hard part. Even then, you could get a 1 1/8th stem and shim it out.
Now, who has some of those forks that might be for sale? ::)
-
When will we see the MK08 winner? Is it top secret?

At MK08! :P

i'm pretty sure lazarou has a security officer in the building and surveillance cameras in key areas to protect it right up until the unveilling on saturday morning of MK08. no cameras are allowed in the building. even phones are confiscated upon entry. upon occasion body searches have known to happen. but i think that was only for the two hot birds that keep turning up in a red mx5! make your own assumptions on that one!
-
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm hot MX-5 birds.........

as long as its a standard :knuppel2:
:LolLolLolLol:
how about it though, a mid school mk sweepstake?
everyone entering a bike chucks a tenner in and the winner takes 50% and we give the rest to one of the riders in need?
no mystery with mine like, this little black sabbath is so minty :smitten:
i've written as letter to mckinney asking him for some of his "actual manfat" to polish the fooker with :daumenhoch:
-
a sneaky peak is needed me thinks laz ;)
-
It can only be a Standard! The sweepstake sounds like a wheeze! I'm up for it!
McKinney's manfat! :2funny:
-
a sneaky peak is needed me thinks laz ;)
No sneaky peaky!
-
My building days are done :yahoo_silent:
I have all I want and just need to tweek some parts and rebuild the Kappa Quad when the £££££'s worth of kit I have bought arrives 8)
