Post by: gary4130 on September 03, 2019, 08:11 AM
had this big daddy frame for ages.Finally got round to building it up.
On this build decided to go for a non factory spec colour-as it's going to be ridden also grey is my favourite colour.
 So off to SUperbikedan to work his magic

when I  got the frame back from Dan was totally blown away by the finish,I mean Dan always does top quality work,but on this frame  :4_17_5: :smitten:the finish is so glossy it still looks wet  8)
So on to the build

Now for the controversial bit  :LolLolLolLol:
Have always liked the SE decals ,but as I'm never going to find a ramp room/or SE big daddy on my budget  I know a few people won't agree with putting them on a Taiwanese frame

wheels builts by myself:front radial laced with peregrine hub +rim/rear static freecoaster hub with peregrine rim/original peregrine HP tyres .Rims needed a light sand and polish to get the dings/scratches out
cranks:iligal cranks with GT decals,as they are a similar profile and finsh to the original GT power series cranks.Have had these before GT released the repo ones finished with a powerdisc with peregrine decal
