Massive thanks have to go to Sawzell for his outstanding polishing of the Araya rims which were well knackered, mind you i did only pay £26 off ebay for them.
Also Del for his brilliant sticker job as per usual. Also for the load of RAD users on here that sold me bits and pieces. :daumenhoch:
Considering it is my first ever build, i am well stoked with it. :4_17_5: :4_17_5: :4_17_5:

I'm struggling on pads Matt, the print didn't take too well on the blue ones and originally i was after some Cal lite chequered ones but are well hard to find a complete set, especially in my price range so we basically went for a material that would look ok against the bike, I'm not convinced either mate but they'll have to do until i manage to source something more appropriate.
Anyway funds are low if you know what i mean. Cant think why. :LolLolLolLol:
-
i have some blue material like my wife used to make the mrd pads if its any good to you ;)

May take you up on that offer Phil, cheers mate. I'll have to pop on round and have a look mate.

That looks fab. I like the white and blue combo. And in three months. Pretty good going. Liked the original pads better.
Well done.

Cheers guys, got really stressed with it at times though. A brand new headset has arrived today so i have to rip the front apart again though. I can bet i dont get it back together again. :LolLolLolLol:
Zed, missus still wont let us mate, but my son wants a Reflex Freestyler, i'm trying to change his mind and get him to go for a GT or a Diamond Back. :2funny: :2funny:
-
I'm liking that :smitten:
Good job Andy :4_17_5:.
