Title: Revamp for my Free Agent
Post by: Rad Robbo on August 09, 2007, 09:57 PM

A total revamp of my Free Agent for this years MK meet. Last year it was black but this year brought about a change back to its original finish.

Changed a lot of parts  which were all NOS including Tioga Beartrap 2 bb with Hutch lock, Mike Buff Z's with front Z hub and colour matched rear Bendix coaster , comp pools, Suede Kashimax Aero, Buff Guard, Hutch Pro stem, ODI gripguards and Unitrons.

It was a big decision to have it Chromed but I think it was the right one, see what you think.

Rob that is a totally stunning build, all the more so because you have owned the bike since new in 84. I liked it in black, but the chrome is flawless and is the original finish so that makes it even better  :daumenhoch:

Awsome bike , I liked the look of it in black better last year , but thinking about it , I would have done it in its original chrome as you have ,if i owned it, especially as you owned it from new and that was its original finish. It looked the bollocks on that stand down at MK aswell ,Brilliant build and display mate  :4_17_5:
