some of them were tricky but i did have some top people come through with bits.

Some big thanks to....

Nick (Gashead) for the frame n forks + NOS bars
Poolysherrif for the cranks
Bobbsy for the pedals, i really struggled to find these but i'm sure it was Bobbsy who i got them from
SBD for his awesome work on the frame
Del for the superb decals (as usual)
Steveredvxr for tipping me off to some of the bits on US ebay and generally putting up with my endless texts and emails  ;D

But i guess finding the bits is all the fun hey  :daumenhoch:

Absolutely awesome job mate, this one would have pi$$ed a streetbeat shootout hands down.  :4_17_5:
