1st Reincarnation:



2nd Reincarnation:



3rd Reincarnation:


a) Strip off all the bling




Back to square 1


Now I'm thinking about stripping it back to raw and having it re-chromed

Shoot me down if I'm wrong here. But I think it looked the best in it's first incarnation. I think we should put it to a rad vote!  I wouldn't bother getting it chromed as chroming is such a hit and miss thing getting a good chrome finish. Anyway what do I know!  :daumenhoch:

im liking the stripped version better than all the colours.
white frame with the chrome bits on it would look cool.

Think I agree with the chrome rims etc and trying the plain and simple look  8) 8)

Although part of me wants to see it chrome  :smitten: :smitten:

1st incarnation looks sweet as, I love it but I think it would look best...................in my collection, sell it to me ;D

A frameset as cool as that is gonna look great whatever you do with it I think though.

Cheers Dave

I hear but I'm not listerning. I didn't like the first one that much, hence I changed it.

and I was only ever ok with the second one... but it still didn't seem quite right.

But I've got some great plans in the pot for the 3rd version and I think when its all done you'll all see a better build  :daumenhoch:

I agree with stripping all the gold off Dan, gold is nasty... it reminds me of aero burners... SHUDDER...... I like the white frame but I cant help thinking it would look nicer chrome

OK, still needs a little bit of tinkering, but 99% finished

I must give props to Martinbike for the inspiration on this one, hope you all like:
