Fishbone Kong Fu almost finished! Tyre choice?
« on: September 11, 2014, 07:06 PM »
Just fitted new seat,decals from Del,tyres,grips and bars and it looks loads better.

Would it be too much to change the tyres to green Gusset pimp ones? thinking of using the Cult Dehart tyres on my new school WTP Zodiac so I could possibly run a front brake?

Sorry Ed, I spent all afternoon putting all the new bits on the bike, Its new school size so the 22mm is too small. It had a faded gold tuffneck style one one so stripped and polished it for now.

Someone mentioned about the a guy had the Fishbone for sale I had seen them on another build and thought they were crazy cool :D

I am selling the other bars, someone said they looked like Bullet proof bars, they were pretty rusty but they are a lot better now

Would green gusset pimp tyres be too much green on the bike?

Thinking of putting the Cult Dehart tyres on my WTP Zodiac?

Yeah Rod - Walls would suit it. IMHO don't slap green tyres on it - it's not a 80's freestyler (no offence)  :)

Think I will just keep the Cult tyres on it as they do look good on it, and order another pair for the WTP Zodiac
