Broomer Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Sadly the that gorgeous paint job is soon to be dead, as I'm having the 4-bolt mounts changed to Vee mounts due to wanting a Vee but not wanting ugly adapters.. ahh the joys of steel. But I'm hoping to keep the front end the same colour and then spray the rear end Chequered Black and White. off topicbut nice one robin while your at it you can do my fork and front of my frame.thanks liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

club_card Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 The 24uk rides perfectly for me it feels really comfortable doing trialsy stuff and more bmxy stuff. The only thing i dont like about it and all other trials bikes is that its such a pain getting anywhere with small gear and low seat you cant sit down properly.But its all good top bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It belongs to Mr Fukuyama in Japan and I'm pleased to say that he bought a seat shortly after the photo was taken!Tell him he needs better rim tape Looks nice, though I'm not sure if I'm THAT keen on the amount of echo anodised stuff on it.

If you get it sorted how much would it cost to get it changed it clear coat?I'm contemplating having a disc mount put on anyway as maguras are gay. So it'd need a new paint job if I did.
