Thanks again for all the comments lads , really appreciated  :4_17_5:


:daumenhoch:  :smitten: if my cali looked like yours joff i'd of kept it, can't fault it all the colour details etc spot on (unlike most of my multu coloured swap shop builds  ;D) , braceless suntour xc2's they are pretty rare , very nice all round , i like it .........A LOT

Nowt wrong with your builds Glen , you have got some cracking looking bikes , Haro sport , the ripper and the Redline are my favs though  :smitten:

Suntour pedals .... got a bit of a fetish when it comes to pedals , as you know with the JP rounds :-[   Love the XCII's , think i have 5 sets now  , 3 braced and 2 un braced :D



looks mint in chrome and blue why did you put pro class bars on i had 1 bitd had low bars  :daumenhoch:
 

The cali's i remembered all had the pro class style bars on, albeit the ones on mine are pro size pro class bars  ;) Pretty sure the cali's did come with both styles of bars ...... Mr Fett would have to answer that one  ;)



Can't say I'm normally a goose fan, but that looks mint Joff.. Great build  :4_17_5:

Bru  :daumenhoch:

Thanks Bru  ....... maybe there's still time to convert you  :D  ;D
WANTED : Old school BMX patches/sew on badges ......  please  :)
