Absolutely beautiful
I'm sure the tyres are IRC diamond back  comp 2's. Rare as fook . Got offered some on bmx museum before Christmas but fella wanted 700 quid for them. Ended up getting some IRC z1 . Not ideal but much cheaper and look great

Lovely bike buddy :4_17_5:

 :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:


Yes ,,,I'd definately have to de lace them and  have you turn the rim facing the drive side whilst the suzue decal is in it's current position  :angel:


You really do have nightmares and daymares about my wheel building requirements .

As it happens , I will have something for you shortly  ::)

Pardon the pun  :crazy2:  :LolLolLolLol:
