hi all,

i just got my big daddy from the US, i have wheels for it and decals (thanks YGT)

i want to build up a parts list for my build and would like to know what your ultimate mid school parts list would be i.e. cranks, bars, tyres etc, even frame colours as it needs paint

I always liked Big Daddies in that dark green colour... It would be nice to see one done as a Kevin Jones replica

rarman1 · « **Reply #3 on:** August 04, 2007, 02:26 PM »

yeah i like the black one dave (was gonna buy it myself

)

and i've tried to find pics of a green one but no luck, so if anyone has any scans of kevin on his, would be appreciated

TwoBobRob · « **Reply #4 on:** August 04, 2007, 03:18 PM »

No scans I'm afraid, but if you go searching for Dorkin' videos from the mid school, particularly Wheelies, you'll see the bike on those

dodgydave · « **Reply #5 on:** August 04, 2007, 04:19 PM »

the one i got has kevin jones decals.....you never know rar ..you may have a chance again ..lol

rarman1 · « **Reply #6 on:** August 04, 2007, 09:31 PM »

is kevin jones the rider with the peregrine Q bars ?

TwoBobRob · « **Reply #7 on:** August 04, 2007, 09:34 PM »

Kevin Jones is a bit dorky looking, longish hair, old.

I recall there was often a red seat on his bike, one peice crank and plastic pedals. I think... I'll find summat on youtube for you, hang on...

TwoBobRob · « **Reply #8 on:** August 04, 2007, 09:45 PM »

Dammit, can't find owt..... someone will be along to help you out soon enough

Here is a pic of Jones on a big daddy.

I painted this yesterday. It's just a rider.

I like the green and the black looks good too. You can't go wrong with q bars or kneesavers. A lot of them ran 1 piece cranks, or 3 piece GT/ profile or GT power series. ACS RL edge tires were/are the best in my opinion.

TwoBobRob · « **Reply #10 on:** August 04, 2007, 10:27 PM »

Thats bloody typical

Picture of Kevin, no red seat, no one piece and no placcy pedals..... dammit!!

almasterb · « **Reply #11 on:** August 04, 2007, 10:32 PM »

Ha Ha. You're right though. In Wheelies he did have Grafight pedals and a red Kashimax seat, but I don't have a pic.

rarman1 · « **Reply #12 on:** August 04, 2007, 10:39 PM »

always the way

thanks for posting the pic

your green is looking sweet as al,

hoffman vids are a bit illusive on the net

TwoBobRob · « **Reply #13 on:** August 04, 2007, 10:43 PM »

If you can get hold of a copy of Joe Kid, there's plenty of KJ on that

almasterb · « **Reply #14 on:** August 04, 2007, 10:50 PM »

Flatlandfuel.com has the complete Dorkin DVD set. It's the best riding from 88 to 2000 if you haven't seen them yet.

rarman1 · « **Reply #15 on:** August 04, 2007, 11:24 PM »

cool i'll have a look into that dorkin set and i've had bits from flatlandfuel in the past

Capt Canuck · « **Reply #16 on:** August 06, 2007, 05:07 AM »

Just buy it straight from Mark eaton you will get a better deal.
Sweet Big Daddy's. I'm hunting one myself.

Maurice Meyer · « **Reply #17 on:** August 06, 2007, 08:33 AM »

I've got a sticker scan if anyone needs it. Someone on VBMX got them from me a while back to get some made. He may have extras to sell. I'll look back and see who it was if anyone needs. Let me know.

almasterb · « **Reply #18 on:** August 10, 2007, 05:53 PM »

Update! I finished it today. I'll be riding this weekend. One piece cranks and all.

Capt Canuck · « **Reply #19 on:** August 10, 2007, 06:06 PM »
