here it is peeps my second build since getting back into this mad hobby

tried to create a copy of the bike i had as a 13 year old ,,,its pretty much as it was then

just got the frame back form the chromer at 8.30 tonight and had to put it together

how it started out

and the wheels took some work to ,,loads of rubbing down

back in the day ,,some pictures as my bike was early on ,,

and my new build ,,,think it needs some better pictures in the daylight

That looks stunning - can't wait to see some outdoor pics in natural light

The Tuffs look lovely, too - I had to refurb a set of them myself as they had a lot of dirt and grime on the surface that wouldn't come off. They took forever to do, by hand, with the old wet and dry. They looked great when I finally finished them but I'd never attempt to restore another set

Watch out, though - the grip Nazis might pull you up for not using bubble font A'mes

top job, totally different to what you normally see - as n2cus says get it outside in this lovely weather and get some sunny pics.

Sweet as mate - nice resto and always a good feeling when you build a rep of your bike from BITD.

You must be stoked.

Happy days.
