Post by: trasher on April 02, 2009, 11:29 PM: got a bit bored tonight ,so i knocked this up ,,,with some bits i had

its not what i had planned for the frame ,,,but i seem to be coming to dead end deciding what color scheme to go for

Red stem and white skyways would look sweet. :daumenhoch:

If I was going to change anything...Spokes,Black Tyres,Chrome Post,Chrome Bars,Chrome Cranks,Polished Stem...looks a peach all the same though ;)

im feeling the shiny chrome :smitten: iv got a chrome crank set polished tuffneck powerdisc

what and keep the seat grips breaks and pedals red ,,,or blue ,,,i think the blue against the red would look sweet ,,,

would you put spokes on a freestyler ,,,maybe zeds mmmmmm

Post by: chichi on April 03, 2009, 08:12 AM: It does look good with the white tuffs, but i am warming to sweetbeats idea of the chrome... :)

Post by: sweetbeats on April 03, 2009, 09:05 AM: I would go for chrome rims and chrome spokes (no red nips too extra) and possibly red hubbage,chrome bars,post,polished stem-saddle is fine but if changed I think a red kashi mx would look pretty sassy...deffo more chrome to contrast with them shiny forks.

The contrast of red frame chrome forks is shwwwwwwwweeeeet and I think the above changes will turn her from glamourpuss to fully paid up pornstar :4_17_5:

P.S Maybe a polished dc minged seat clam too :D
