Proper street /freestyle bike   :4_17_5: really like it


constructive comment  :angel:


Seat and grips always the same colour  :daumenhoch: red /red or white /white

It's a freestyle bike so an original 80's one piece crank on it a day rather than a modern day 3 piece  :-\

The layback , is cool IMHO ,(not everyone's cuppa nowadays ,don't  know why , because everyone rode one back then  :daumenhoch: ) ,   maybe look better with a chrome one  :coolsmiley:

Then it will be even better  :4_17_5:

 DP's are cool  8)

That's a beauty but I'm with Christine on the collars and cuffs comment..... grips and saddle need to be the same colour :coolsmiley:

Wouldn't worry about the Flights, if you're riding it, then keep them on as they are great cranks for the money and look awesome. Get Del to do you a set of red Redline on white background decals for them to give them the old school look :daumenhoch:
Still limping......

I would stick with red tyres.  When you fit a chain get the rear wheel as far forward as you can because of your splayed rear dropouts or get some dropout savers on it.  Got to love a DP :smitten: :smitten:

Lol :-)) I tried to get hold of red elina flyte tech, then a red aeroyal but only could find NOS white one (I need something comfortable for my ass and only the elina and aeroyal do it for me lol)
I was thinking about a chrome post too which I will probably track down anyways. NOS Stainless steel polished KMC to go on. Want to keep it red, white and chrome :-))

A red Dominator seat would not look too out of place either  :daumenhoch:

Just been offered a Red Kashi style seat with BMX on the sides at a good price  :daumenhoch:

Will purchase that as this will be well ridden and used on the skateparks this summer. Dont wanna scuff up a £120 Kashi now eh  :LolLolLolLol:
