Sponge Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 Nice! I always liked that T-mag... The pitbull looks nice, just the blue forks and front tyre letting the aesthetics down a little, but no worries. Hope it rides nice for you!

Hope it rides nice for you!Blue forks are getting stripped and sprayed a matt black to go with the frame. It's going to be a stealthy bike I just didn't get on with mod thats why I've gone with stock.Will update tomorrow hopefully with the bar, cranks and such as everything is arriving tomorrow but I have to send off the rims, hubs and spokes to Trials-Uk to be built up.

Euro Braker Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Gone to the dark side-----got a stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Plod Posted September 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Gone to the dark side-----got a stock. Glad you approve of the change All the parts came and the hubs, spokes and rims were shipped off to Trials-UK where they're being built up. Erm had to get a new BB as well as the bb i'm running is too short and so the sprocket rubs on the bb cup. But yeah shall hopefully have pics of the full build by Saturday/Sunday. Enjoy till then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morton Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 how do find going from a mod to stock i am in a pickle wether i should make the change, i have both in my shed now and after riding the stock for all of today i really like it but for more street than natural. what made u want to change to a stock? My mates say that you can get further and do more on a stock but i am satisfied with my mod. i no its a bit off topic but i was just wondering why and do you find it better that your mod.

My mates say that you can get further and do more on a stock but i am satisfied with my mod. i no its a bit off topic but i was just wondering why and do you find it better that your mod.Haha If I'm honest, I've ridden it for five minutes. After I bought it off 'The Lemonade Man' (The guy who posted before you) my friend jumped on it and snapped the chain and then we bodged the chain back together but yeah chain snappage again haha. But yeah from what I got to ride of it, it feels lush The reason I changed was because I just didn't get on with Mod... I'm 6ft 2" and a T-mag was a bit short for me if I'm honest so Stock seems like a better move so only time will tell Edited October 4, 2006 by College Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Plod Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 (edited) Okey. Its pretty much done... Just got to get the Rotor off my old wheel. Ben Travis's old Pitbull forks.... I think it really finishes the bike off. I'm hoping to take it away to devon with me so I will finish it off perfectly when I get back but it will do for now...So here are some piccies Hope you like it. In a bit of a rush at the moment getting ready to go away so I'll write a proper spec out tonight if I get the chance or when I return. Cheers Edited October 20, 2006 by College Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
