Right - found my digi cam now (thought the missus had taken it away with her to take baby pics), so here comes a stupid amount of digi pics.

Parts breakdown:

Frame: 1992/3 S&M Platform Dirt Bike
Fork: Gen 1 S&M Ditch Forks
Bars: Standard 2 Piece Strip Bars
Grips: Jives
Stem: S&M Redneck
Headset: Tioga Beartrap II with Rekka bottom cup (Tougher than a brick shithouse)
Front Wheel: Suzue sealed hub with SBC axle to Ukai Equalizer rim
Rear Wheel: MkI G-Sport Fat Shaft hub to Ukai Equalizer rim
Brake: Front - ACS BOA, Rear - Shimano U-Brake
Levers: Dia Compe Tech 77 locking with the pins twatted out
Tyres: Front - Pr1mo V-Monster, Rear - Generix (Custom Riders special from back then)
Clamp: 2 X TNT
Seat post: Gaybo Elf Zip Post
Seat: GT Freestyle
Crank: Unstamped Profiles
Sprocket: GT Wings Disc, Tuff Neck Cahin Ring, Oddy/Havoc Sprocket Pocket
Pedals: Shimano DX's
Gyro: White Oddy gen 1
Pegs: Yardstix
Gyro Cover: XPosure
Stickers: Useless and Play

The Elf Zip Post saved the seat from being cut down. Also learnt that the lugs on these Platty DB's are deffo not DC 990 friendly - DC990's will fit if you cut down excess thread underneath, but the reach on them ain't enough. Shimano U-Brake = fine, but you can't slam the rear end. Might have a furtle and come up with a solution before MK this year.

Not 100% I like this bike as chromes not really my cuppa and I still don't like front brakes.

As I said on FB Dan, looks amazing.  :smitten:

I put in another vote to ditch the post and sacrifice the seat though. It needs to be done.  :daumenhoch:

Ben I have a 90's non locking Tech 77. God knows how you date tech 77's, but I bought it new in the mid 90's and have owned it ever since. Will snap a pic if you like.

Proper mid school, just needs left outside for six months an old t-shirt duck taped round the seat and all the chrome hanging off the back wheel. Oh nearly forgot 6 inches cut off each side of the bars.  :LolLolLolLol:

That's pretty cool  :daumenhoch:
What's all this talk of 77's only being lockers in the 90's? I had a few pairs without, still got a one or two knocking about I  think!
