« on: June 09, 2012, 06:29 PM »
Finally finished this, although i think it might change a little over time  :)
It was inspired by Maurice Meyers orange beat but done on a bit less of a budget  ;D








Can't decide on the seat so here's one with it's original seat choice  ;D

Parts run down
85 Street Beat frame and forks
Skyway stem
MKI EZ Bars
Odyssey 2000 brakes
Tech 3 levers
Sugino crank with GT chainring
Izumi chain
Shimano DX pedals
Tuff neck seat clamp
GT Tyres
UK made original orange Tuff II's
AME Cam grips

really nice that the gt tyres look great on there and the red bits really blend in with the orange , can't fault it, its lush , think i prefer the white seat but i too can't decide  ;D

SBD did my pedals, brakes, clamp, bars, stem and power disc.

Andy, the lever covers are Honda ones........Maurice used them which was my inspiration.

I think the orange seat with a white seatpost would balance it well.
