Nice! But agree on the seat, that seat has no place on any bike let alone a Torker  ;)

Maybe some race tyres instead of freestyle but awesome looking thing  :daumenhoch:

it's a cracker, love the gold crankage ...and the wheels, did you do them yourself, they look wicked :4_17_5: ,   seems like one spoke could do with a lil adjusting, may just be me crooked eyes though :laugh: :laugh: :daumenhoch:

If you wanna keep the price down, and you're going to ride it, then you can't go wrong with remake Tioga Comp III's from Alan's, £37 posted, or thereabouts. :daumenhoch:
