Loving the use of alloyed hubbed tuffs this month lads. :4_17_5:

Make a build look so much better than placky hubbed ones imo.

Post by: clowntype on December 17, 2008, 07:31 AM
First build, pretty much everything stripped and repowdered (frame was bare '85 streetbeat), tange-tx-1200 forks (was gonna put my mity lites on it but they are such a work of art, too good to powder!)
custom streetbeat vinyls, fusion stem, crank, mx1000s inverted at the front, new gen skyways sealed bearing, odyssey post, hutch tricktop seat, suntour first gen seat clamp, diamondback ally chainring, second gen ezbars, stuck new tyres and thornproof innertubes on it 'cause i intended to ride it, but now i've done it, I don't want to wreck it. going on the bay today as it's just getting knocked about.

thanks!!,,,  i actually did my photos in my den,,,the photo studio I contacted wanted $500 for an hour so I figured I would give it a shot on my own,,,,I used a digital camera, tripod, and bought some vinyl material from a local cloth store $25, (I ended up "using" the other side of the material/backing/cotton side),,,I was pleased with the results,,it took a day of work but I learned a bunch about my camera and working my photo downloader program,,,claude
