about the gold chris king headset now i've finaly managed to get it set up, the idea was to match the skyway hubs, but think a black one would have suited better, do you agree?

just gone down the main road to the shops on it and you would have thought i was naked, not so sure its cos i'm a fat fook on a little bike though, do you lot get funny looks when seen on a bmx.

I usually get"BMXers are gay" from dirty chavs in naff Corsas.Funny how they brick it when you drag the driver out and punch him in the face.....

Gold seat clamp, gold chainring bolts and much as I have tried to resist saying this (mostly cos I think the bike looks shit hot

)................loose the front brake, it is surplus to any logical requirement.

These may be a nice touch too https://www.soulcycle.com/shopping/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=32&cat=Stems&catalogid=10416

billstup · « **Reply #14 on:** May 30, 2008, 09:11 PM »

Gold chainring bolts and a gold seatpost clamp would set it off nice imo

i did think about seatpost clamp being gold, so will get one, but never thought about chain ring bolts, now that does sound good, if anyone does decide to get one of these quads get the chrome stripped off the forks as it just doesnt suit and i even filled over the SE stamp at the bottom of the forks to give it a smooth finish, now off to alans for gold seat clamp
