The most anticipated build of the year so far Damo, but well worth the wait, it's making me want to do a freestyler again.

Top build mate.

Nice one Dan! You should do another freestyler, I have yet to see another Dyno nicer than your one

Absolutely love it Damo.. I love that the grips match the wheels ...

You've bloody nailed it son

Wahaaaaay "wet look" turned up

It's mint as fook Damo, all the hard work researching,sourcing,restoring,buying & building has turned into something very special. Wouldn't have the patience to do the thread never mind the build

Big pat on the back is deffo deserved mate & hopefully you'll fetch it to MK

Very nice that .. Top work

Thankyou everyone else for your kind words, it means a lot. I was ready to give up on it at a couple of points but I felt I would not only be letting myself down but everyone else on here too, as I was getting so much positive inspiration....

I swapped the seatclamp today for a raw one as I bought a chrome one by mistake thinking it was just polished...I just need to get some proper pics in the sunshine as that is how I first saw the builds on the museum and fell in love with the way they looked...the wheels completely change colour and the whole thing REALLY pops! just need some sunshine!

Thanks Gary, really glad you like it...I tried to get it as right as I could! thankyou everyone else who has commented. I still really want to get some sunshine shots at a particular location...hopefully tomorrow if it sunny.
I was working at the Big Bang show at Santa Pod last weekend building a ramp for the Cool Flo boys so I thought I would bring her out for some fresh air and added to the line up along with Torker Mick and Master Daves lovely bikes....

Ady · « **Reply #120 on:** May 01, 2016, 07:08 PM »

That looks fookin awesome mate that line up pic..
especially the first bike in that line up..

Wish I was there my second home to be honest..

cheers Ady...glad you like.
I love it up at the pod too...used to go watch the drags with my dad as a kid. I have done the quarter mile a few times and i go drifting there also. As far as i know the Cool Flo guys will have a similar setup at Bug Jam this year....might be worth a trip!

STOKED! I just found this image which proves Ron was running an Anlun power disc. I was doubtful as 2 of the US builds are using a Pro Neck but upon discussion with the builder of the other one we came to the mutual conclusion that it would have been most logical he was using an Anlun one so I went with that. That's one little niggle that I had gone! As it is half guesswork sometimes building a rep it's nice to know you made the right decision! This pic must of been taken not long after the bike was built as the crank still looks fresh, in most of the other pics the crank has rubbed through to chrome... Looks like Fiola looking on in awe in the background!

deeman · « **Reply #124 on:** May 03, 2016, 12:42 AM »

Another image I never found before...the famous Blyther/Wilkerson double air! I wish I could make out the decal he had on the underneath of the down tube!! Anyone got any ideas?
