my streetbeat
« on: May 27, 2010, 09:43 PM »
bought this off tefore on ebay oct'04 ,to use as my daily rider to +from work

then this year paint was flaking off,so time to resto+use as a summer ride

but what colour to do? finally decided to go black/white i know its not an original colour way ,but green /white 'beats have been done to death,so i thought i'd go for something different









can't decide to go with white tuffs/black tyres or black tuffs/white tyres  :-\
big thanks to del for the decals + paul for the f+f and pointing me in the direction of rad

That is one sweet beat :smitten:

You could try the Black tuff on the front and White on the back. :uglystupid2:

I prefer the whites myself but hey my Beats green and red so what do I know ;D

Great bike.  Loving the Tech 5 with Potts mod 2 :daumenhoch:
