ALLIANT cruiser ADVICE needed!
« on: May 11, 2007, 06:09 PM »
guys - i have managed to source some alliant cruiser frames from about  2003/2004,  NOS - i have black parts to go on one- and i have the choice of two colours, black or orange - which should i go for?
I can also get hold of an alliant billet cruiser frame too... in dark blue, they have funky looking tubes, bit too manic for me i think , but v cool... but would love your advice on which to go for!

thats a fantastic cruiser there dingo :smitten:

are those sirens that youre running? how are you finding them?

there was an orange alliant for sale a while ago, all jazzed up with king hubs etc,

not my cup of tea at all but it looked pretty good (apart from the heinous looking hannebrink forks!)

Id love to know the brief history of Alliant - whats the se connection etc? And also, do you think alliant frames are collectible or will be one day?
