Post by: bmxbert on April 04, 2009, 10:24 PM: my yellow holmes and nos chrome taj are both nearly complete (the newschool build is soaking up the cash)

taj should be ready for april botm. just needs cranks fitting and a break and lever.

holmes needs an 1.1/8 headset and a break and lever.

after that its platform dirt bike time.

Post by: bmxbert on April 04, 2009, 10:34 PM: thats the way it goes a?

im taking my time with the taj as i cant decide on the bars its getting me mad.

i have mint low drag 1s for it and nos jumping bars. i like the jumping bars most but im building it to show at mk. what do you think i should do?
its not strictly era as its wheels are profile ss hubs on himko rims other than that though its all nos bling.

Post by: fouronethreeoh! on April 05, 2009, 08:49 AM: Seem to be gathering a pile of mid bits that have cropped up.
Not too sure what its going to be yet ???
Or when its going to get done, this sh1ts addictive. Its the frame and cranks that are putting me off at the mo, too many ££££s.

Post by: harris on April 05, 2009, 08:53 AM: mids a nightmare to get all parts for tbh most frame n forks are cheap ish its the bloody rest thats a pain to find.
Title: Re: bit quiet in here
Post by: OrgasmDonor on April 05, 2009, 09:11 AM: got 3 on the boil, 22" proto longfellow tnt, 21" Hawk n a mad as a box of frogs 21" supercross that hopefully pushes all boundries of taste as my swansong build.

tnt should be built this month, hawk to follow soon after and supercross needs wheels building n powdering but and i'm a lazy c*nt and a tad skint so that will be done when its done but worth the wait for all the wrong reasons :LolLolLolLol:

Post by: JT71 on April 05, 2009, 06:34 PM: no builds for me in 2009 I'm afraid, will be looking for a general lee and maybe a sabbath for future builds, but not going to be splashing the cash on builds this year.

that said if some midschool gem comes my way who knows?

Post by: fugazi on April 06, 2009, 07:36 PM: I've got an early, platformed sabbath that I was going to build up, but I don't know which way to go with it, it's a surviver but it's in good shape, so might raw it and build it "as ridden" and the other week I uncovered a built up 21"tt hb deebo that I used as pub transport years ago which I forgot I still had! That will get a refresh and put back into service, then there's the khe lagger & the hb Ep sitting in bits, and I'm looking for a khe beater to replace the one that got nicked, and a..., hang on I'm supposed to be downsizing!
