Thanks mate, I really enjoyed sourcing the parts and putting it all together... The icing on the cake was finally getting a padset. I would like to get another One at some point.

Back for another look mate and i like the details  are those the repop skyway pedals or original ones?

If i was to pick at anything id say it defo needs a front brake being a freestyler and some street/ramp tyres

Morning, Pedals are original though are pretty scratched up but i only paid 30 quid for them, ideally they need new screws and dust caps...but they polished up ok. As for the front brake, it makes sense to have a front one as its a freestyler(i will just use my foot in the meantime  )., ...have a cracking weekend.

When I've got a few pennies I might... My beat as sweet as it is did put a dent in my wallet , have a good bank holiday.

I can understand the pain of building a beat matey the wallet gets kicked from pillar to post but its worth it and they seem to keep going up in price still right now

I also had comp3's on my beats untill i found some cheap freestyle tyres, if i hadnt just sold 3 pairs id have offered you some

Just ride the shoite out of those comp3's and get some skids layed down, they will soon be less knobbly
This ride will look juicy sweet in the summer sunshine

And I still haven't got of forks arrrrggghhhh... Ive seen some vee rubber freestyle tyres on flea bay so I will keep my eye on them. I was going to wraP carpet round my comp 3's to protect them . I am tempted to buy a raw beat frame and put my own spin on it but I'm just waitIng to find a get away driver for my next job. Cheers for the tips and all that, be lucky.

[Deano]

hahaha get some lino wrapped round them that will be a skid machine

I also did an original white early 84 beat for my first proper build then i did a custom beat for my second

You also have a nice easter holiday matey
