2hip Big Boy build

Mmm very nice.

gotta sell soon now I've got a WAL coming 

seems a shame, you were making a good effort building that, I'd have like to have seen it finished,
I've such a lot of love for Ron W and WAL/2-hip, probably just for the fact that he's a bit of a rebel and tries to do things a little differently,
I had a bad experience with a WAL frame many years ago, so much so that I never bought another product, the frame lasted me all of 3 days IIRC,
the stem on that is nice, like a big fist, the bars are hideous, like beyond hideous, in those bars there is what little there was to hate about the Midschool, even those crazy hoffman many-piece bars were at least a little "tech" looking,  if we look at the S&M and Standard 4 piece bars theyre still industrial looking but retain a little of the elegance of the 2 piece bars, whereas those bars that Ron made were more WAL-MART than WAL-RIOT,
the white grips and tyres don't work either, its a 2-hip, give it at least a little credibility,

love the brakes though,

thanks for the feedback Joe.

It was a Riot that I have been yearning for and when I was offered the Big Boy I got that as the 'next best thing' - I wanted to drill it out and stick a bashguard on it but there didn't go down to well so I left it - there's something about those bars that I love.. they are so wrong they are right! but I do take your point and I was able to score some San Quentin bars for my Riot build.

I will still try and finish it as I have a month to wait to open my Riot.

The white worked on another Riot I saw ( Orgasmdonors - white grips / white seat ) but I probably went to far with the tyres 

Got the brakes from Jai @ MK for £10 each  I should have brought more.
