Candy candy candy, I can't let you go!
Finally got around to posting it!
Man this has been a labour of love! Saved so hard and waited so long to build this modern interpretation of the candy red Hutch Trick Star. This has modern flatland geometry and high end modern parts to match, but I’ve tried hard to keep the old school vibe! Couldn’t resist the rebranding, as my nickname is Lockie/Lockster/Lockstar, so on a build that's all about indulgence bordering on the ridiculous (even chromed the gyro tabs!) I allowed myself the indulgence! :-)
Thanks loads to everyone who helped me! Human bikelopedias Trevor Henry and Ryan Nunies for parts/set up advice/build inspiration! John De Bruin at Hutch for rebooting this legendary frame and for the humour - and indeed there is humour! - in parts like the micro Power Disk with allen key bolts option where you don't even need 'em! Scott Brummell for caps! Del for decals! Superbike Dan for the amazing candy paint job! Scott Vargas for sorting the brake bridge engraving in the States, which was an ordeal to say the least, and would never have happened without Scott! Mark Smith for a serious amount of polishing! The Portugese man-beast Angelo Casthilo Patino at Dave Owen Cycles for getting the crank on! Mark Blackburn at Priory Photography for pics! And biggest thanks of all to Stuart 'One Flying Kidney' Crumpton for the build – the velvet gloves were definitely on for this one!
I put this into NuSchool Retro at MK16 and it didn't place, but thanks for all the love 'on the street' for it whilst there!
Hope some like it despite the pesky micro gearing etc! :-)
