Title: The Rebel MC build... (big thanks to Del - you know what that means ;) )
Post by: dannywhiteley on June 27, 2008, 03:31 PM
Well, it starts here.  Rebel Freestyler build up, my ultimate old school bike.

The frame and forks came together from different sources, and were stripped down to bare metal and sent over to SuperBikeDan for white powder.

Here is the result...

Looks magnificent, I think you'll agree, cant wait to get going on this now.

Just fitted a Hatta headset for now, next stop decal heaven...

Build is gonna use a mix of blue and red parts (bit of yellow/gold?) to match the Rebel logo.

Many thanks.  The decals will make a massive difference when applied as they will tie the two colours together.

Well, it dont get any better than this in my opinion.  Massive, massive thanks for the man Del for so accurately reproducing the decals that I thought i'd never find.

This is what its all about.  The decals make such a difference to the frame that itself was so brilliantly powdered by SuperBikeDan.

Got a spare set of decals, anyone got a spare Rebel race frame for me? lol

 :daumenhoch: Pleasure helping out Danny... I did have an incentive though seeing as I bought that Rebel F&F off you, so I needed a set myself  :D
