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.

Bars are cool, bit if a shame they have been cut down, just managed to get levers on and had to cut the grips down

It's a beast, good job

Like that Paul

Bars are mental, what happened to the cool ones you had on there

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

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

I need to get brakes working

be it old, new, or mid I always end up doing the early 80s tricks

I need to learn some mid school tricks

Mid school bike, still old school tricks

That's a funky looking bit of kit you've got there Paul.

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

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

rodriguez · « **Reply #22 on:** October 05, 2014, 02:00 PM »

Well the green tyres wouldn't be my cup of char but if you like them go for it

What about a set of primo the wall?

Dannywhac · « **Reply #23 on:** October 05, 2014, 02:56 PM »

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

paulb113 · « **Reply #24 on:** October 05, 2014, 06:03 PM »

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
