White T/A's are awesome

Looking lovely is it a rider ?

If funds allow and you're keeping it a while it would be worth changing a few of the bits for era correct bars etc
suvivor bits aren't that dear , but look so right

Nice work Matt

Cheers All,
All mine are riders.

If you know any bars that fit the bill, please let me know. These Haro's just looked a little 'better' than the ez's I have.
Keeping the twin pinch as it's a rider and you can't go wrong with the latest sealed bb's.

Darren had already fitted the headset so didn't feel the need to swap that.

Cee-Dubs would work well on a T/A rider. Era correct and not hideously expensive. Getting a rusty set powdered shouldn't cost the earth (if you want white bars)

Cheers ozone.
Asked TJ about his ones. Also just picked up a pair off the bay (for spraying) and we'll see which ones look best!

This is looking good mate, did you have the bule on the decal made in a brighter shade of blue? Or is that the flash making look like that?

They were a Del set, made with a chrome border.

Shaping up very nicely indeed Matt

Deano · « **Reply #16 on:** October 24, 2011, 08:41 PM »

Yeah i saw the boarder and guess they were custom it was just the blue bit i wondered if you had asked for a brighter lighter shade as i was thinking something along those lines myself for mine. So it matched up better with the blue anno'd parts.

is the perfect emoticon for a ta build

stu27 · « **Reply #17 on:** October 24, 2011, 08:41 PM »
