Yeah good stuff, it's nice having more than one of a bike you like a lot. Makes you understand how different parts and setups compare with each other, pedals, bars and tyres really, the bits that connect you with the bike, and the bike with the floor.
And the grey and blue one is my favourite of you line up too.

Sweet line up fella

aqua blue and chrome is the killer

cheers for the comments guys

might have to put a poll up for a laugh
can't pick a favourite myself ,keep changing my mind

the blue/ grey one as it was the first resto i did
the aqua/blue is such a nice ride for an old school bike
always likes the red/white bike as you don't see many about
the CC rep is a bike i've always wanted to do

think that's why i've ended up with 4 'beats

yeah it's a alloy front hub mate,but the hub is bolted in-think it was a rear at somepoint,and somebody bolted a front hub into it.
if anybody has a spare plastic front hubbed tuff let me know

Ah right, makes sense.....might have been a rear from a 50/50 set at some point?

The 88 (Carlo Griggs) Street Beat is in a league of it's own.
