Title: My Latest Build You've Never Heard Of! (Now With Radberry's!)
Post by: renegaderacer on March 01, 2013, 10:51 PM
Just got my latest project through the post today from the good ol' US of A!

It's mid 80's, made in America and full 4130! Missing the downtube decal but in good shape apart from that (oh, and the rear drop-out the delivery people bent from the US to here!).

I'll let you know what is is when I get more time to do a write up. In the mean time, start guessing (not a lot to go on, I admit)!  ;D

It's been a while since my last update but I got a little present through the post from Dan yestrerday!  :daumenhoch:

The parts turned out to be a right pain to strip and get the right colour for and in the end Dan painted them instead of powdering and the results, I think, are stunning!  :smitten:

Sorry, my phone pics and artificial light don't do any justice to the deep, rich colour of his amazing paintjob!

The colour's actually a really nice rich purple but looks more pink in these pics!

Now she's all ready to be built up! I've got a couple of bits on my wish list but I've got enough to get her rolling for now. When funds allow I'll get some lavender Comp ST's or similar and a set of white ACS Z Mags, then she'll be complete.  ;)

Don't know about white tyres though.  :-\ White mags and white tyres is a bit too white for me! I like clashing colours to stand out!  :LolLolLolLol:

My mind was really made up about getting lavender tyres after seeing this orange one on the museum.......

They weren't sold over here as far as I'm aware, so no-ones heard of them. Even in the US, they probably weren't massive sellers! 

It's a 1986 model and as soon as I can get this poxy crown race on the forks, I've have it built! :LolLolLolLol:

Post by: renegaderacer on April 17, 2013, 12:05 AM
Finally got the fcuking crown race on the forks so I could start to build the bike up. Got as far as I could tonight. Wheels are next but I still have to clean the brake rub off them first.

You might also notice, the guy who I got the brake set-up off, gave me two left levers!  :idiot2:

They're the Wellgo ones. Virtually identical but half the price!  :daumenhoch:

Cool, have been looking at getting those but the ones on ebay look odd, like the white plastic is too bright/tranlucent and it makes them look cheap.

Yours look ace  :daumenhoch:

Nearly there! Spent a couple of hours tonight, cleaning up the rims with a scalpel, then went to fit the rear wheel and noticed a spacer's missing from the drive side!  :knuppel2:

A handful of washers will suffice, me thinks!  :LolLolLolLol: Fitted the front brake but it was getting late and I couldn't be arsed to fiddle around with the Rotor and rear brake.

Should be able to finish it off tomorrow, with the decals going on last to crown it all off. Please note, the tyres are only temporary (and aren't pumped up in the shots) until better ones turn up (although they'll make great riders)!  :daumenhoch:

Finally finished her off today!  (still haven't pumped the tyres up though) ;D

When/if funds allow, I will replace the wheels and tyres  with more appropriate ones but these will do to get her rolling (until I snap the wheels!)  :LolLolLolLol:

The amazing work of Dan and Del have transformed this bike and I absolutely love it now!  :smitten:

When the weather stops raining, I'll get her out for some proper photo's but these will have to do for now.  ;)

Have to agree with you on the tyres. Before I built her I thought lavender was the way to go but it's got to be radberry's now!

Agree on the tyres, if you can't find the Haro ones (not seen any for a while now) i'd go cheap white ones from porkshop  ???

Hmmm...even Pork Chop doesn't seem to have them now(as well as the white!)Retrospect used to have the Haros at resonable money,but doesn't seem to anymore.There is a radberry pair of Haros on the bay at £250,crazy money!Have seen them for around £50 in radberry.Will keep an eye out Giles :daumenhoch:

Trouble is when those kind of tyres come up on the museum, they go straight away at that money. Oh well, a set will turn up one day!  :'(

Sun came out so I pumped the tyres up (finally!) and got her out for a few shots.

As has been agreed on; a set of radberry's would finish her off a treat but this is all your getting for now!  :LolLolLolLol:
