....nearly finished this build, but its taken me ages to get it to this point, & I'm dead chuffed the way its looking so far ::)
Thought you might like to see the build, swapped the frame with MarkJ, but it was white & I've a white master. So first off strip it back.
Got various bits from other radsters & us ebay.

Gorgeous mate. :smitten: :smitten:

Looks lush - got an horrible feeling you got one of your fork decals on the wrong way.
Other than that looks tip top :daumenhoch:

Hey! It all came good in the end! Never seen a black trick star before I don't think, good choice Mark. The orange looks well radioactive. Had a good hollyoaks session on the Loewe today, a samsung came last week for another room, guess which one's shit in comparison?
-
it's deffo different.
-
dude this is so weird i am just about to buy a black trickstar and was thinking of going with your exact colourway, keeping it black and throwing in some orange...
time for a rethink :'(
it does look fooking lush mind you :smitten: sell me those ladder bars please :daumenhoch:
-
I really like that. When i saw the black frame i wasnt sure but then the decals and the finished article, looks really good, nice job :daumenhoch:
-
S-W-E-E-E-E-E-T!
Nice one dude.
Daz. :daumenhoch:

finished bike looks rad. those tuffs are glowing!!

thanks fellas for the kind comments, always nice to here someone else likes it to :coolsmiley:
I say its nearly finished, cos the pedals on it are MKS 202? (got from a radster) but I have a really nice set of MKS graphites which I was hoping to swap spindles over with. But they are different lengths :'(
Does anyone wants some 1/2" graphite spindles for 9/16" or does any one know if the numerous copies would have spindles that'll fit?
maybe the KHE ones?
Sorry about the nerdy techy post, but would really finish the bike off nice.

I very nearly painted the bars and seat post black, but they are both in really nice condition it seemed criminal to spray the original finish ::)
