1987 MBK Bercy Masters

[deeman]

Just no to the gripper, they are minging!! A dominator shouldn't be too hard to find.....If you are riding the bike clear sticky pads will work best on the mags, i think i have a set i would be willing to donate if you need them? they are brand new and unused.....

I have one of those new dominators and as minging as the gripper may be in Damo's eyes lol.... I  need a survivor seat for a survivor build as it happens so could possibly trade with you if you are interested Toby ?

I've got pics guys but I cannot upload them. Tapatalk won't let me login to Rad and the pics are being rotated when I try to upload direct to site from my phone. I'll try again tomorrow 👍🏼

Here we go, all done with only the brake blocks to go. Hopefully you can zoom on the tiled images. Spec coming soon 👍🏼

[Chilli Rinse]

Was bought all og except tyres, front brake & pedals... Removed the og plate and bent MBK Bercy bars. Swapped out seat, seat post, tyres & tubes, grips, brake blocks (tbc), pedals, cable outers and front cable. Not a full blown resto, more of a clean and tidy up I guess.

Looks cool as Hell Toby, i like how original it has been kept down to the Anlun stem (one of the best stock parts!) 

[Picklez]

Wow, cleaned up nicely & turned out really well. Total 80's vibe captured  .

[bobafett]

Cool

Cheers Damo, yeah that stem is a nice bit if kit. I wasn't sure about the pedals but I think they look better than the og Unions. The grips were as close as I could get without shelling out 30 quid for A'me duals.
Question... Does the rear cable run to the rotor look ok ? It was crossing over the front when I got her, I didn't think it was necessary. PM from me soon 're the blocks.

Cheers Pete, she screamed 80's to me and apart from budget that was a big part of my decision to buy. She was an easy project to pop my freestyle cherry on. Maybe she won't be my last either.

Cool 

Cheers John, I think she still has a bit of cool appeal too  well chuffed with how she turned out.
PM from me soon about the seat, I haven't got a gripper though, it's a crusty trick top or the one in the finished pics. I do have something else in faded red too.

Thanks for your kind words guys, as well as your opinions during the build and advice.
Radsters rock

I just bought a white freestyle seat dated 87... Damo, you are going to hate it  the bike is a little quirky so I got a seat to match. Pic to follow when received and fitted.

John... if you're interested in any of the seats mentioned pm me, you can take your pick 

[Picklez]

Spiked my interest, I thought the current one suits it well

It looks better than I thought it would Pete, and I think that's down to it being a smaller than standard seat, maybe ??
I think she deserves a proper freestyle seat though.

Damo, don't hate me but she's getting a white Kashi Handler  it's an 87 nos with marks and a bit yellowed. It was cheaper than a repop too because the seller slashed about a score off of the price, I couldn't resist. I personally think it'll work and love or hate them, time will tell.

  John, 3 on offer unless the Handler looks total gash like Damo reckons. Then the one fitted in the pics will stay  I don't think I can attach pics to pm's. Send me your email or mobile if you're on WhatsApp and I'll get the pics to you soon.

Cheers Ady, she is now one of my faves  Thanks for the offer on the rubber, they're gorgeous but this build came in over budget and I can't spend any more  I'm thinking about another freestyle build soon and that too should have white tyres so you might be hearing from me soon 👍🏼

[bobafett]

Is it only me that thinks Ady's tyre pics look like a sad face 
 
I'll get me coat....
