It was very hard for me to see beyond the genius of the bollock-scratcher & wheel-disk combo

Quality month lads

I was stuck between 5 or 6

Well done RADsters

That was the hardest month in a while to vote for.

There was so many quality builds, i didn't know whether to go with my Heart, my Head, my Friend, my Roots or my Desire $:-\$

In the end i went with something that was built to my taste

It didn't help that the mods didn't clean up the thread to make it easier to compare the builds

Sorry Steve, we've all just got a lot on currently.

Congrats Bert !

Congrats Bert!!

Cracking month, well done to everyone for their builds, a lot of time, money & effort involved!!

Apart from mine of course!!

A few more votes this month too, good to see.

Just a thought Dan, wouldn't it make things simple/not so confusing if you didn't overlap the voting of one month with the following months entries? Just saying

Well done Bert for the win

and everyone else entered. It's great to see so many builds still coming along

Noted, however doing this loses a week that people could be entering bikes. I thought it would be simple enough to understand as the name of the month concerned is in the title if the thread, but we'll do it your way if you like.

Andy68 · « **Reply #110 on:** October 08, 2014, 02:16 PM »

Nope I understand totally Dan, we all get it but I was thinking more of 'newbies'.

bmxband1t77 · « **Reply #111 on:** October 08, 2014, 02:34 PM »

Agree. There needs to be a short break to get the votes in for current month then a gap to prevent the odd misfire late entry. I'm a newbie. I'm sure the builders will appreciate the extra time to get their rides ready. :-)

Ps can a bike be entered more than once?

No, 1 bike, 1 entry i'm afraid.

I take responsibility for starting the new month while the voting takes place for the previous, so we'll leave it till October's voting has finished, until we start November's.

Also, we have just added a poll to the entry thread this month, as it does take a lot of time to start another thread with just the pics only. If we have 20 bikes, then that's 80 pics we have to upload to photobucket and copy to here. I personally can't do this myself as I have no PC at home, only an iPhone, and you can't start a poll using Tapatalk. I do however use a PC at work, but can't get access to photobucket at work, this is why I asked another Mod to start the voting off this month, I just didn't have the time on the 1st Oct.

Sorry guys.

Yayyy. My fav CW won!
Well done Bert. That's an awesome bike there, makes a nice change to see the one piece crank, you stuck to your guns, good man.

Sorry Retrodan

What I meant was can a bike come back and be entered in another month?

No Jon, not unless it's been rebuilt and has had a a majority of the parts changed.

Congratulations too Bert, at last a bike I have voted for has scooped the win, lovely bike mate, well deserved.

And well done to all those that entered, without the hard effort and time/money you throw at these amazing bikes, we wouldn't have a BOTM comp, so you're all winners IMO.

Mat · « **Reply #117 on:** October 08, 2014, 03:17 PM »

Imagine that CW with wheel disks & a ball scratcher, would have got 100% of the votes

meticulous · « **Reply #118 on:** October 08, 2014, 04:12 PM »

FIX!!! Redline should have won, I demand a recount....

CustardLips · « **Reply #119 on:** October 08, 2014, 04:16 PM »

Well done Bert. Not my choice but very nice all the same.

dinglem · « **Reply #120 on:** October 08, 2014, 04:45 PM »

Congrats to all who entered; there were several bikes this month I would love to own (as well as my WHEELS obviously). I like the way the BOTM comp provides inspiration and ideas for future builds and I thoroughly enjoyed my first entry (MATRON). Well done to Bert for the win too - very well deserved

oldschoolace · « **Reply #121 on:** October 08, 2014, 10:06 PM »

Well done Bert a worthy winner

well happy with my 10 votes, cheers guys

Bfellows · « **Reply #122 on:** October 09, 2014, 11:37 AM »

Cheers fellas for all the comments and votes. I'm really chuffed and I couldn't have built it without the support of everyone on RAD, or people i've met through RAD. There's more than a few of you who should recognise parts that i've picked up from you over the last year or so

Big thanks to Jaan as well for convincing me that there's more to life than freestyle by letting the frame set go and for dropping my bars at the chromers.

I'm filling up now.

Bert
