Title: S&M DIRTBIKE almost done..........
Post by: firebird4130 on September 15, 2009, 02:03 PM

First saw one looking like this in the early 90's, light grey with these decals, it belonged to someone at school, I eventually ended up with it but by then all the decals had been scraped off with the exception of the 8 ball, I decided to spray it maroon as all the paint just fell off one of the dropouts, still remember peeling off that 8 ball and wishing it still had the stickers and paint intact.
The set up is different, just built it how I want just got a selle turbo to come and I think that'll be it done.
Cheers for the decals del they're amazing, just spot on  :daumenhoch:
Sorry for the crap photos, tescos camera strikes again............

It's a lovely bike but I'm an anal tw@t and I don't like the 4130 sticker.  :-[



Other than that I love it.

cheers guys, thanks for the comments. The 4130 sticker is an extra coz I saw it on an s&m cruiser with the same decals as this, had it made with the others before I knew  this was supposed to have the knobby tire, so it may come off at some point. Can't believe the lever was spotted, haha can't get away with anything, not done the final tweaking on the bike yet, it was only put on to set the brake up, not to ride yet  :daumenhoch:
