I have a scabby dog HLT on the go , struggling to find stuff no matter the cost!
I'm just going to build it as I want and grab bits as I go.

Just got the Extra Burner on the go. Got all the parts for it, but waiting for the frame to come back from the painters, and also need to get the levers sorted out. Fingers crossed it'll be done in time for MK. I'm hopefully doing a deal with Ant, so that will be another build for me, although i will have the majority of the parts in a bundle with the frame & forks. Need to find some MX 900/1000's in red, tech 4 levers in red, a couple of dated dc cables (red also). Am also on the lookout for a Kashi aero - can you guess the colour?! I also have some silver Shimano DX's that i need to get powdered in candy red

No builds for the first summer in a while,I have 3 bikes,one of which gets ridden,and I have a few parts stashed away just in case.
I'm at a real crossroads now,I'm thinking of selling all the parts as it's unlikely I'll build again,but do I sell,as at the moment I'll never get those parts again?
If prices crashed and everyone was selling to get rid,I would build again.
But as said above,no way I can spend a grand plus on something at the moment,and I do have other hobbies.
Real shame how the scene has eaten itself but there you go....

I mainly have builds that require finishing...Two, frames need a trip to SBD and i need a pair of bars chromed. 

Luckily I have plenty of parts to finish builds.

Just started putting my streetbeat back together, different to when i got it back in 2003/4.  Was going to get it powdered white as the green isn't the nicest green you'll find, but I relented and decided to keep it as it is, original paint won the day, even with a scratch or two.

WANTED....FRED BLOOD QUADANGLE FRAME..

I've 2 builds though they're more on the backburner than on the go!! Have been slowly collecting parts for them and they're almost ready to see the light of day but the racing has been taking all my attention, time and money, so nothing's happening to them soon! At least not until I sell the Motobecane and Ross framesets!! :daumenhoch:

Just finished my last build, an 82 GT Pro.  Thankfully didn't cost too much as had 60% of the parts.

Won't be doing another though as my spares are depleted and I refuse to pay the rates now.
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

I have a few builds on the go, waiting for a single part on one build before I press the button on some frame repairs and painting, with another build stalling because I've lost the love for it. Decided to build a race bike instead on my usual mid eighties freestylers and I just cant commit to putting it together and putting build marks over a fantastic candy blue finish....
When I was born, the world was a far simpler place.
It was all just cops and robbers.
And BMX.
