Do something completely different and clearcoat it

a break from the norm is always good

mmmmmm, maybe?

good to see old school frames stripped like this

nice welds on that, tidy like,

clear coat and all black parts would be funny, old school in a new school style! like a reverse-retro

I was thinking of doing that to one I had last year, I had a new school Haro like that.

I've just packaged my two raw 'Beats up and will send them to Dan tomorrow. He's going to do them in white/red and white/green for me. I'm looking forwards to building them up.

I'm thinking of getting another raw 'Beat and doing something weird and wonderful with the colours...

theyre nice frames, basically a ta front triangle, and got to be second to a ripper on the head tube/ gusset/ welding etc, very nice indeed.

Sold my Cali last night on ebay, cash already flown out to Ginny's for a
Orange StreetBeat.

(So basically sold a nice rideable BMX - for a frame and forks and a set of wheels? I must be MAD)
