jsc Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 For what has felt like years, and having gone throught loads of minor niggles... the bike is nearly done. It needed a few dents braizing in and the rear 4 bolt mount threads tapping. My mate then got the Frame & Forks powdercoated gloss white for me. Nothing has seemed to go right through the build and has been frustrating at times, so I'll be glad to see the finished product. Can't wait to ride it, always wanted one of these frames back in the day and like the old skool geo!Frame: Pashley GHZ - Powder coated white - Gold Pashley graphicsForks: Echo Urbans - Powder coated whiteHeadset - King 'Rasta' Bars - Trialtech sportStem - Try-all NucFront Wheel - Try-all Disc hub with Try-all rimRear wheel - Hope Pro2 with Echo Urban rimFront Brake - Hope Try-allRear Brake - Avid SD 5 V with onza 4 Bolt adaptersCranks - MiddleburnPedals - Sha***d Try-alls (going to be replaced soon)Tires - Maxxis Holyroller front 2.1 & rear DMR Moto digger 2.3 All i'm waiting for now is a Tensile tensioner, bang a new chain on and thats it!! Things like this have been slow because of the postal strike & the powder coater had the frame and forks for weeks. I must thank the great guy's at Tartybikes as usual for their brilliant service, being REALLY helpfull and for their A1 advice. Also thanks to my mate Sam at the edge cycleworks in Chester for helping me with a couple of things too. I'll post more pics when its finished!

toyota200x Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I really like it, but would love it if it didn't have a bunch of modern parts on it. Something old like that just needs a 22t front ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
