O.K here she is at last,the finished article!as she was before:

And now.....

the tweaks ive made since it was last built are:
swapped new tuffs for ally hub
swapped dk stem for tuf neck pro model
swapped bars for haro sport
added skyway axle pegs at rear(cos the rear standers are shite)i had pegs on it bitd too!
swapped repop a'me round for original bubble font
swapped sugino chainwheel for chromed tuf neck
swapped new clear pads for original tuff freestyle pads
had pedal cages chromed

thanks to all that have helped with this build,special thanks to Glen,Terry(londonhellboy),and Andy(rooski).Now i think it looks right and wont be changing anything except the chainring bolts(if i ever get hold of some tuf necks!)hope everyone likes,i'm in love with it all over again,and chuffed its done in time for xmas!

:smitten!!

Damo, that is stunning buddy. I'm really glad you decided to go for the 'older' touches to make it a real piece of history, your history

Well done buddy

Looking forward to your next build now

Thankyou everyone for your positive comments!there is something nagging me a tiny bit!...I love the look of the Haro bars I have put on,but something is telling me a set of EZII's in chrome might just look better!anyone got any thoughts?or shall i just tick the 'done' box? $:-\$

Keep the haro bars! What bars did you have bitd?

deeman · « **Reply #67 on:** December 30, 2011, 08:14 PM »

some generic halfords 531 race bars,never liked them,but they were 'cheep' like the budgie!

Wow thats stunning mate

very well done

Rodgy1970 · « **Reply #69 on:** December 30, 2011, 09:07 PM »

nice

deeman · « **Reply #70 on:** February 09, 2012, 03:28 PM »

Been fiddling again,wasnt happy with the look of the profile cranks,so went back to a opc like i used to have bitd,and finally found the elusive ACS locking levers i used to have!

I think it looks right now,i have only a couple of other minor changes i might make but thats it for a while!!the bike is now repop free, only thing thats not correct now is the gyro, cables,and freewheel.The gyro may come off yet.if someone managed to unearth an original M-Zone/Mud Machine spinner i'd swap but don't think that'll ever happen!!A couple of bits are still bugging me so we'll see what happens!
