My First Mini Build - NOS CW Phaze 1 Mini

[Pooch]

it is a nice bike but whats the point..its soul-less..sorry but I just dont get it

Why take the trouble to even post a reply then?

seems that you like people blowing smoke up your ass, how dare I say something bad, at least I have bothered to reply, looking through Rad at all the builds that have been done you dont seem to comment on anybody elses builds, just your own, like I said it is a nice bike..just soul-less

You've Done a lot of following adam around since the 5 Feb to say that...you got 2 accounts..?

You should look harder then, if I like someones build I say so, if it's not my cup of tea I don't, simple.

I'm done.

[Kaner]

You are very welcome Mate, info like that is real special and hard to come by with such a rare bike like that, it would have been nuts not to send it to you!

Anyway the mini looks very very cool, I absolutely love it! and to have all 3 sizes is amazing!

Ignor that lee dee cee idiot, what a fooking-5-post-banned-member-fooking-knob-jockey! Lol.

If I'd have known you'd take such crappy pics I'd not have bothered

For all the people that keep bitching about Adam not building his own bikes, this is a little insight into how much work has gone into this build.

head tube was reamed and modified due to weld ingress into the cup area
head set cups turned down to enable fitment
bottom of the steer tube was modified and reshaped to enable fitment of 20 x 1-3/8" tyres.
spokes were individually shortened by 3mm
rear hub spindle was narrowed along with the bearing collars/spacers
rear brake spindle was shortened and rethreaded
and the cranks had a light machine polish.

This was far beyond the likes of most peoples builds where you open your shitty little plastic box of Halfords spanners and put it together in half an hour  

I'm lucky enough to have amassed a wide array of tools over the years from building show-winning custom cars and ground up restorations.


Adam's only crime here is the poor quality photos (born from excitement), he's done another great job of bringing something a little different into our world of Rad BMX and for that reason alone this little mini has soul.

Top job Adam it's lovely


So for the people still playing that broken record...  Throw it away, it's not worth listening to.

top drawer adam,get a set of chrome cw pads for it

[Robbo]

Well said Stevie, we all know your handy with the spanners.  

[AKGOFF]

top drawer adam,get a set of chrome cw pads for it

Thanks Mark but I'm not a great lover of pads to be honest, I know they should be on there but I just can't bring myself to cover beautiful Stems and sleek frames with big bulky foam pads, I know I'm wrong but that's just how I like it. I think my only bike that has a pad on it is my Loopy Quad which had it on there when I bought it complete and have never got round to taking it off.

What you really need to go with these 3 is a very nice CW Jersey, perhaps one that was owned by Mike Miranda perhaps 

[TORKER mick]

why cant you build your own bikes? its not hard, and why is every part NOS but had to be filed, sanded and polished to fit..even the tyres and grips
it is a nice bike but whats the point..its soul-less..sorry but I just dont get it

Fook off then..he don't want to build his bikes.. Keeps his hands nice and soft and clean and strong and censuous.
I like the fact that you don't build em.. If you did................... They'd be crap.. Keep up your up your good work and thanks for letting us see some great bikes come to life at your expense.. 

Fancy a bum!!!

you crack me up Pooch but he is a ----

You're criticizing him for having NOS parts, when it's a NOS frame and forks? What's wrong with that anyway?!

[Glynnyboy]

I love it when someone gets a real buzz for particular brands and does real justice to them.
I liked CW but you have raised the bar/profile a lately Adam. This is amazing mate.

Get a bit of Phil woods grease (its black & smells ace) on a q tip and give those stem bolts a bit of a wipe over they're breaking my heart .

I don't get the point of the no soul comment tbh either.

For me building an f/f like this, the sole is in the history of the companies succes.
The desirability is owning a mint piece of that history. 

Looking forward to seeing your ceedubs at mk Adam
