If you are going to ride parks etc, I would go for a slightly better tyre, there are a few amber walled New Skool Tyres about that look great on an old skool build, have a word with stodgy at the rad shop, he knows everything & will sort you out http://www.radbmxshop.co.uk/shop/article_696.001/FIT-F.A.F-Tyre---SKINWALL.html'shop_param=cid%3D11%26aid%3D696.001%26
Clearly, I now have wheels. And tyres and everything else I was waiting for.Nice and simple black and white, but that suits me as I'm a nice and simple guy (and had nothing at all to do with the fact that the parts were easier to source). That said, everything got resprayed anyway, so I could have gone for any colour scheme I wanted at no extra effort, Lesson learned.I've been out on it and it rides well too. It feels weird after riding road bikes but I'm getting used to it. Even managed a rock-walk with a mini roll-back in the middle! I now have a blister on my left hand and sore shoulders - was it always this difficult?See you at Corby and thanks to the forum for the help,Gordy
