Title: Visage Pro Freestyler
Post by: oldschoolace on July 08, 2016, 11:05 AM: Had this earmarked as a slow burner build with a full resto but thought i would try it out in its survivor state for Cleethorpes this weekend :daumenhoch:

Turns out survivor builds are much harder to put together than full restos.
Found the tatty skyways in the back of the man cave and have not had chance to have a roll on them cos of the fabulous mancunian weather ;D

Fingers crossed she stays together :LolLolLolLol:

...sorry for me daring to ask this impertinent question :-[ : Have you been in a hurry, or does that lever really belong there?

Post by: bmx_freestyler on July 11, 2016, 04:38 PM: I love the lot surrounding the stem shaft just to compensate the unbelievable low lying clamping area of the stem :laugh:

Apart from that:
A very eye catchy survivor! (http://simracing-deutschland.de/forum/images/smilies/srd_s/good3.gif)
Looks like a mixture out of a Redline RL-20 and a GT Pro Performer with build in chainstay standers.
But the brake lever makes me nervous... :shocked:

Seriously though please give me first option on the ACS Wedge if you ever sell

Post by: dancetothedrummersbeat on July 18, 2016, 11:53 PM: Great to finally meet you last week Clint. It's only taken 5 years! I really like this bike. Looks fantastic as a survivor build, and the curved tubing around the head tube is a nice touch. Always good to see something a bit different :)
