So thats where i came from!! I opened the bag and the office phone rang, so i put it down to answer the call, and was rummaging around on my very very untidy desk and knocked the jiffy bag off, picked it up and took out the brakes, then about 10 mins later went to make a tea and theres a lolly pop on the floor, thought it was a bit strange!!!! Cheers fella, I'll give that a good seeing to on my way home from work, it'll stop me from smoking on the way home on the car!!!

Ha ha - you may need to borrow a chainsaw to get through the bubble wrap Jaymz - sorry about that, but I hadn't got a box for it! Hope this works out ok as I have kept that frame for months refusing to throw it away as I knew that a project like this would come along eventually - I originally gave it to my mate's son but at MK last year got him a chrome Haro twin-top-tube Zippo so it's been going spare ever since :daumenhoch:

I would only use pledge to polish the frame Jaymz, I think I flashed over it with black spray to cover a couple of scratches bud, so you'll take it back off if you go too agressive :shocked:

I never thought to send sweets to keep your sugar levels up trying to get it all unpacked and built out of random bits....... :2funny:

great stuff - wasn't me that sent the inner tube tho, just the bars  :daumenhoch:

talking of recycling packaging - I got my haro bars from SBD in that boomerang pack and they've since been to yorkshire and back before I used the same box to send the mongoose bars to you. the packing tape must be over 10 layers thick in places  ;D

can't wait to see it built up!
