Very nice and very clean build, I like that a lot.

Those bars however don't half make the wheels look small, I thought a first glance it had 16" wheels on.

I wouldnt say they dont suit, i think eveyone is just used to seeing SE bikes with PW bars, just sometimes you have to step away from the norm.

The pics make them look bigger than they look in the flesh

rad_pitt · « **Reply #20 on:** June 30, 2012, 10:03 PM »

Really like that - not overly keen on the seat, but the bars look good on it IMO

Comfy seat

I Fookin love those bars and I think they suit it perfectly, nice sharp angles to match the frame

kungfunky · « **Reply #23 on:** July 01, 2012, 09:51 AM »

Looks super clean that, great build and really like it

However it's a shame to see another survivor frame set make way for fresh paint.
