Made me laugh too, no, im not that graeme, im an entirely new graeme, and apparantly more liked than that one!

Ok, we'll bury this, its a stupid argument anyhow, old school bikes shouldnt mean childish old school rucks :)

Can you imagine, in court, so graeme, please tell the court in your own words why this incident happended,

Well, he said he didnt like my bike :'(

It would be funny ;D
It is quite similar to that hyper, its also very much like a single bottom tube meteorlite.
Befor i welded the bits on it was quite similat to a gen1 master, exept for the bottom tube.
Its believed to just be an old cheap bike.
The top tubes are welded on slightly different at the head tube, one is very slightly higher than the other.
All the welds are very neat though, i was surprised, probably the neatest welding ive seen on a bike frame. (not that im hugely experienced in these things)

well, its rideable.



Still waiting for the other lever, white calipers and hollow stem bolt to turn up.
Will prob change the crank, chainwheel and pedals at some point, but at least i can ride it! At least then i'll know if i like the frame.

thanks folks, it rides nice, nice and tight, feels good. Need to get the bars adjusted right, and i might loose the gt frame stander, not sure.
Its got haro freestyle tires, run at 50psi.
It will be better once the brakes are properly sorted.
I dont trust the forks though, i had to straighten em. I used a big hammer ;D so there probably a bit week!

Same dropouts and twin top tubes as mine. The down tube is the only difference, even the rear frame standers are the same. I've been trying to find out what the hell mine is for 6 months now. The forks on mine are stamped Akisu. I know they made forks for every tom, dick and namajinky under the red sun.

yeah, i know the forks are a bit crap, but i just made do with what i had.
coastvl, it does look like yours, but i added the chainstay standers myself.
It may get new forks, or i might not bother, it was just a bit of fun till i get my haro master :)
It wont get any serious use, just a run around. was a good learning curve though.
