my grail build '87 beat -lots of pics
« on: May 11, 2013, 08:34 PM »
been looking for one of these for years.my fav 'beat-missed out when cyclesport had  full bikes for £189  :tickedoff: over 10 years ago
+then alans had a few in stock also for £250  :tickedoff: :tickedoff:
seen a few on  ebay but always got outbid  :'(
finally got this  frame + fork last year, had to be done in red/white so off to dan .as always dan did an  amazing job  :4_17_5:
got it finished this week -not a full factory build  ,but pretty close







spec as follows
'87 streetbeat frame+forks
ez mini bars/jive handles grips/sr stem
sr hollow cranks/sr pedals/tioga cd/tuffneck 42t'ring
white tuffs/oddy bearfeet tyres
skyway 'not' seat  ;D/oddy seatclamp/generic seatpost
tech 77 levers(stripped the blades )front brake survivor oddy/rear '87 990/oddy cables
skyway pegs/spinmaster 1
might change the pedals over to shimano sx's+ change the grips to a'me tris in red ,but like the red jives with the white ends :-\
if anybody has a spinmaster 2 let me know  ;)
big thanks to dan for the amazing paint job :4_17_5:
del for the decals  :4_17_5:
costa for the cranks  :daumenhoch:
stevesredvxr for the hot seat decals  :daumenhoch:
my life is complete now  ;D (until the next build)
