Hello Radsters
just finished building my new school Blyther FST
not too long ago, thought i'd share it with you , if you aint already seen it on my facebook .
Managed to score one of the framesets from Planet BMX in Florida . (great deal , DESPITE CUSTOMS CHARGES
)
noticed that it came with BB bearings but no bottom fork race :
so that came off the Triple Zero too , but could i get it on the FST Forks?? could i fook ..... LBS wouldnt touch it with a bargepole after i let it slip the forks were fresh from America and probably the only one in the UK at that time ...chicken shit. So i had to very very carefully and painstakingly file the steerer down so i could slide the crown race down then tap it home without damaging that beautiful 1985 Flouro Red paint .
Bits came from my 2012 Chrome 000 and my 500.3 to get it rollin , after all the faffing with the forks it came together pretty quickly
SO stoked on how it came together . it looks and rides superb .
Swapped the seat and changed post for a longer , shiny Eclat laidback pivotal and a chrome Gusset Slink halflink chain
And she is done ! HOPE YOU LIKE IT
Cheers
Dave
