Cheers Ed  :daumenhoch: ....Its all about the wheels on this, really wanted to bling it up so they were the perfect option for me :)

Yep its definitely a Riot MK3, been speaking with Ron W....sent him a couple of pics and he's lovin it :) ...said he's gonna have a scout around to see what bits he might have lurking around too :)

Get it built Ed  :daumenhoch: .....Im dying to ride mine now!  Just waiting for a couple more bits to sail through the letterbox and im gonna give it a blast!

Right then guys, the build is pretty much sorted now :) ....Put all the bits on that i'd ordered (Dominator seat, ODI Toadstool grips, Tech 77 locking levers, KMC chain) but forgot to order a front cable and some donor pedals to convert my nos Peregrine pedals from 1/2" to 9/16" .  Anyway....apart from that, she's done  :daumenhoch:

 :LolLolLolLol: ....Weight does seem to be one of the first things you come across with these Chris, Ron.W probably would have got round to designing an aftermarket parachute if he'd have kept them in production haha.
