thought i would use grey ez bars instead of chrome ones to blance with the grey tyres
just the levers again to change ,plus the tyres -should be skyways but seeing as there mega bucks :shocked: found these haro tyres ,think they might be copies as never seen them in grey before.maybe one of the haro experts can confirm
let me know your opinion's on which you guys prefer,thanks for looking ;)

Looks ace mate, if you want to do catalogue spec you'll need victor 707 pedals as well as the tech 7s.
My one took some time (and funds) to complete.
Good luck on it :daumenhoch:
-
cheers rob, dont know which would be easier/cheaper to get the pedals for the catologue spec or an rgd stem for the rider :tickedoff: never mind a set of tech 7 levers "help"
happy enough with it for now -unless i win next weeks lottery ;D
-
finally after years of searching managed to get an RDG stem !!!my life is complete now :LolLolLolLol:
just the tech 7 levers to find now

Nike bike man. I built a Carlo tribute recently. I was down his place the other week.
(https://i.imgur.com/mwKuCD8.jpg?1)
Mine was a more modern bike using his parts.

He's a top bloke is Carlo. Have you asked him to sign it for you?

cheers for the comments guys.
would love to get Carlo to sign it ,but I live the wrong side of the country. :(

Are you from Bognor ?

Aldwick mate. I don't originate from down here though, I grew up in SW London.
Edit. Gary - I will hopefully be meeting up with Carlo at the end of the summer. He's all over the EU ATM with his kid (his kid races Go Karts). I may be able to get his sig for you on a Proper decal (I saved a couple) so if I do mate I will holler you back :)

cheers mate that would be fantastic :4_17_5:
