Title: MY FIRST EVER BUILD
Post by: donkeybambam on January 11, 2008, 02:45 PM: My best mate Nick (Munners) pursuaded me to build a bike. I used to like BMX back in the day and i decided to build a cheap bike as the parts are expensive as hell.

We both had a day off today he told me to come over and start building. I am really happy with it considering it is a cheap build.

I would like to thank Nick for the hand me downs like the bars, seat and wheels and JT smooth for the other bits i needed.

Thanks alot.

Just an opinion but I'd lose that seatpost for a less aggresive bend though... Laybacks have been the death of many an oldschool frame, and the braced ones are particularly bad for it.

No, only joking.......i helped. ;)

I reckon you will get the bug now mate.... by looking how you put it perfectly in the back of the van and wrapped it up like baby Jesus! :D

I didnt realise what a nice frameset the Beat is too. Nice powderjob but next time use Dan.

Well chuffed for ya mate. ;)
