From rust to race...
« on: November 15, 2008, 07:24 PM »
I don't think I've posted this in a finished state, I picked it up in April, and as you can see, it was a bit rusty >:(



but, after a lot of elbow grease, chrome paste and larger...  oh, and Dels stickers...



I've been racing it in Northern oldschool series (with various makes of bars), and it's fantastic :daumenhoch:

Who needs acid... pah ;)

looks great   
i always assumed the split in the seatpost on tnts were for a over worked fancy way of getting cable to A.D mounts.
i just bought a fong daddy with the same thing and that has 990 mounts
thats alot of work build wise. i wonder if it actually has reason or if it was just another 90s crazy idea
either way it looks sweet :daumenhoch:
