New TORKER 280 build start to nearly finished
« on: March 28, 2012, 05:30 PM »
It has been a lovely day for it and have had this frame set for ages, so was nice to get a start on it today :)
Was originaly blue, but with plenty of marks and chips so picked it up from the powder coaters today.
Originally:

And now this:

Had all the parts collected, so was just a matter of putting it all together :daumenhoch: I will post some better pics tomorrow, when I put the finishing touches to it :)
epoch headset and spinner pegs added:

Decals added thanks to del :)

Bars, levers, grips and calipers added:

Finally my red tuff 1's with bendix coaster hub and renthal post + dominater added:  :)

Have some minor adjusting to do, dont want to lower the seat post too much as my last renthal post got stuck and couldnt get it out :-\. Got to sort out the chain and pedals and do the brake cables. Calipers I resprayed and decal'd them up and match perefect with the frame decals. Very pleased so far and that makes six bikes to the collection. One more and I will have one for every day of the week :) :)
