Hey Marty , about time we caught up bud ......

Been thinking of a parts list for this , so far it has waiting a Hutch stem , CW bars but need to get them chromed ,
xcII , thats about it , but will be going with opc black z rims with Sturmey Archer hubs with hub brakes ,also have a black
Jag seat og shrooms . Wasn't going to go the gyro/spinner way , but I do like a acs pro so I think I will prob go that way .
I have a Tioga bear trap 2 fs headset in pink so think i'll get that chromed . Nice plain chrome and black for this
should look sweet

love the craziness of these framesets

Could be a winner when it's built up with some shinyness

radovr · « **Reply #9 on:** May 15, 2016, 09:35 AM »

A few shots of how its shaping up.............

Unsure to go with the dx or xc , do like the xc though ..............

MartyC · « **Reply #10 on:** May 15, 2016, 10:22 AM »

That's looking nice

deeman · « **Reply #11 on:** May 15, 2016, 10:44 AM »

DX's on a freestyler definitely!

factory pilot · « **Reply #12 on:** May 15, 2016, 10:59 AM »

Can't believe I missed this thread ... It looks amazing .. Beautiful frame in chrome ... Dx's will look ace mate

factory pilot · « **Reply #13 on:** May 15, 2016, 11:00 AM »

You can't go wrong with chrome and black .... It's simple and Classic ... Can't wait to see what comes next

radovr · « **Reply #14 on:** May 15, 2016, 12:25 PM »

mmmm , i'm liking the dx but prefer the xc's

radovr · « **Reply #15 on:** May 30, 2016, 01:42 PM »

Not much of an update apart from the hubs have turned up .............

The rear need converting to run on a bmx , but not hard to do .

Also converted the xc's to 9/16 and polished one of the cages for now as they're not looking that good

Lovely frame set

radovr · « **Reply #17 on:** May 30, 2016, 02:25 PM »

been trying to upload pics , nope , so back to photobucket

didn't go overboard with the polishing as the bad scrapes are a bit close to the stamping on the cage .
Waiting on a set of black z rims to turn up now

Lovely frame set

Cheers bud , been waiting for one of these for a long time

MartyC · « **Reply #18 on:** May 31, 2016, 02:12 PM »

Cage has come up real nice, be good to do the stamping in black as opposed to white on black as og.

Might need to pop my ACS Stoker stem round for a little polish there Steve...

radovr · « **Reply #19 on:** May 31, 2016, 03:02 PM »

Your a mind reader Marty , yep that's the plan with a little bit of black
Paint here and there . Need to polish up a few bits of Sugino items
for it soon .
Pop the stem down anytime mate . You know i like a bit of polishing

Andyboy77 · « **Reply #20 on:** June 02, 2016, 05:42 PM »

Nice work

...it will look great with those black Z-Rims.

radovr · « **Reply #21 on:** June 25, 2016, 09:48 AM »

Built it up today , need to do a bit of tiding up later on , but here it is so far .............

Looks great mate, funny how the crazyier the frame looking back now it just seems sooooo much better.

If it were mine, and sadly its not......i'd avoid frame stand kickturns

factory pilot · « **Reply #23 on:** June 25, 2016, 10:13 AM »

It's turned out really nice ... Top build and thread mate

MartyC · « **Reply #24 on:** June 25, 2016, 02:09 PM »
