Alex Dark Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 looks amazing, blue and red go together so well( get a red viz rim for the front though )Hopefully you won't bash this one as hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walker Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Very niceHow do it feel compared to the kamel ?pretty similar really, won't take much getting used to. Just a few subtle differences with it being a touch longer, other than that the geo is pretty much the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Trials 31 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Looks good! Get you a front red rim to match the rear and it will be pimp! Sucks to see Cleanbikes go, such a good place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 nice one andy! Looks good but I think the red rim needs to be changed to a different colour! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Looks nice Andy, what rear hub is that? I thought the Kamels had a Mod spaced rear end, or is it a new hub?Set of white rims and that would look immense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
