Recommended Posts

Ok, so finally got the Ashton mostly finished after owning it for almost three weeks, she's almost there, just a few more bits to do, basicaly going to show a picture of it when i got it, with red seat, red rim tapes, shite pedals, crap stem etc, and the rest of the pictures are the changes i have made, hope people agree that shes mint as fook and she's a pretty bike.

Comment please, love Craig x :)

Looks awesome. How much has it cost you over all?

Cheers dude, Ashton itself as a whole bike i bought for £300 off a friend, then i put my white Trialtech bars on, then bought the Hope stem for £60, new rear tyre, white rim tapes, paint for seat, and echo axle washers for front, come to near the £400 mark so far (Y)

looks nice. Fatty R :mellow: good effort on finding/ having them (Y)

Thanks fella! ;)

They came on the bike and are in almost pristine condition, had someone telling me that Fatty's ruin the geo of every single bike they go on, my opinion to that is "BOLLOCKS" :P they're well suited to the Ashton and as far as im aware the current Ashton forks they sell are based on the Fatty R's, so can't be that bad lol giggle.gif

nice

looks like my bike :)

do you like your stem that way?(dont you find it too short and loo?)

Does it?? You got any photos? .......... Erm i had a longer echo stem on it when i bought it, hated the feel, i wanted it to feel slightly streety, so i got a shorter stem, and also it's sooo nice and matches my rear hope pro2 (Y) bike rides mint, remains flicky, but also sits on the back wheel so comfortably :)

Haaha let Ashton battle commence,

Seriously though, the Justice MK2s popping up lately are lovely, makes me happy to own one knowing that theres still a few really nice ones out there, i was considering white rims, but it will make it lose it's stealth affect lol, would look good though with my gunsmoke hope stuff, looking to get gunsmoke hope headset, gunsmoke pro2 front hub, and i have already aquired a gunsmoke hope head doctor to match my stem and rear pro2, im hoping i can find a way to get hold of a gunsmoke front hope monotrial, they made them and put them on monty kamels, branded with monty logos, anyone know how i could get one??? my mate has them on his kamel and i look at it all the time drooling and making mmmmmmm sounds ahhhahahah! laugh.gif
