do they go wromp wropm wromp when you ride?

They is proper old school Cheng Shin knobbies, I had them on my first bike, then a set of Tioga MX's before getting some Mongoose Snakebelly's. They make a great sound when ridden on concrete, just as you describe

Nosnod · « **Reply #35 on:** January 14, 2007, 09:28 AM »

That is one fantastic build mate

I think the brake cable is black in the original pic

jimwise68 · « **Reply #36 on:** January 14, 2007, 10:01 AM »

Yeah brake cable is black, it has now been changed. Just liked the idea of having kuwahara cables on there!

Tony it will be going to braintree.

jT Racing · « **Reply #41 on:** January 14, 2007, 11:18 AM »

nice build jim, looks well ace.

what the fook is it with that bike though. that's no looptail he's on, thats a normal KZ witha et paintjob, a shit neck too. replica my arse, i thought it was the same bike as the film. did anybody allready know this??

bodamus · « **Reply #42 on:** January 14, 2007, 11:28 AM »

Great job love it

Townshend's right the E.T. bike in the film is a regular KZ-1 and not a looptail but who cares great job anyway.

I have the Stem that's angled forward like the one in the picture that actually came off an old E.T.

From bodamus

jimwise68 · « **Reply #43 on:** January 14, 2007, 12:27 PM »

Again, thanks for the comments.

I know the one in the film is the KZ1 but didn't know until I had bought the frame and got it painted. After watching the film for research purposes noticed that it was a non-looptail.

Bodamus wanna sell the stem?
