Looks really nice, but lose the seat and post.  Also get those bars back a bit, apart from that damn good effort.

BMXBOY!! steady Si it will see a track, just from a safe distance  :LolLolLolLol:

Tinkered with the seat and post swapped out for a elina ultra light but IMO it didnt suit the blue black theme.
Thanks for the comments the bars are now almost Vertical but i like the look of the post and seat so they are staying. As for getting the bug, i caught it when i was 13! its been a swine to shift and seems to be getting worse, its explaining the money side to Mrs JT thats a bit tricky....You know what i mean Si (BMXBOY) But i am now building a redline rl20b freestyler just because i have the bits, would like to do a DP freestyler as and when funds allow it or even a Rebel Freestyler as the factory was local to me bitd..
as for actually racing...i am the big 40 in 3 weeks and seriously need to get fit first but i never say never..i was fit once. :LolLolLolLol:
