Title: My first build, so far
Post by: GavinKent on March 24, 2009, 07:32 PM

Hi all - how do you think this is coming along?  Decided I'm now going to build my ultimate Skyway, just how I wanted it as a kid, so more now using this one as practice -

Nice Banksy  ;)

Bike looks cool, though not sure about the grey bars tbh and dont like those laybacks (althoughI had one on my first build so what do I know).

I quite like the grey bars as different with this colour scheme - but others have mentioned the seatpost, so I'm going for a GT layback!
