Alu' Onza Forks Some cheap front wheel T-Pro hub with Onza 12t fixed cog Monty 219 Cranks - The ones with fixed 24t ring ACS Claws freewheel Shimano UN53 BB Cane Creak ZS2 Headset Onza T-Mag Bars and Stem Diamondback grips So i'll have a shit T-pro, with no rear wheel, and no brakes Oh, and if the cog won't come off the hub. and if the hub had a rim and spokes attached to it, Very dodgey gearing, where I wouldn't be able to stop pedaling EDIT: Also, T-Bird frame T-Bird forks T-Bird cranks T-Bird Bars T-Bird stem Edited February 25, 2006 by Dan6061 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Quinn Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) Me and a mate did this the other day and came up with the funniest hybrid ever!I'll get pics soon but its basicallt a t-bird frame, random rear wheel, random BMX front wheel, odyssey bmx forks, GT bmx stem, macneil BMX bars, random crankset (trials gearing) and then all the othewr random bits.It's brakeless at the minute but we'll probably be sorting brakes out for it soon. Also to add to the comical effect the bars have been sprayed red, forks have been sprayed green in places and orange in others an then basically just used as test forks for spraying, touch up pens etc.It's soo wierd to ride, we took it down the skatepark and the front end is a heavy BMX front end while the back end is a trials back end.Max Edited February 25, 2006 by rad2themax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
