Waiting on the right pink tuffs to come along or till iv enough for new ones. Untill then iv these for now and looking for some pink/gum tyres for them.

This is getting closer to the finish line. I had the BB cups pressed in today so i managed to fit this:

Just need a black chain, fit my grips/blocks. Take it apart again and give it a fully good clean down for the application of my custom decals for Del :daumenhoch: :smitten:


Everybody loves a bit ov pink ;)

I think thats the first Black Streetbeat I'v ever seen  ???

I quite like it  :)

The BB cups will go in, lube them up, they are meant to be tight, just put them in a vice, or get a block of wood & hammer  :daumenhoch:

Thanks WIKTTA^^ :) Cups were pressed in at my lbs. Id not seen an all black Streetbeat either but im sure there is some out there.

Finished the decals and had a struggle with the top bar 1 which i left till last, slightly wonky and i will replace it later on.



Im pleased how its turned out tbf. Now i can put the grips/chain and cables on.
Thanks Del again for the perfect decals :daumenhoch: :smitten: love them!!!!

Good thread and Great Job on the Streebeat .. :daumenhoch:

Black & Pink goes together very well  ( i should know , spending the holiday weekend painting daughter`s bedroom in similar scheme), you`ve got it just about right i reckon!!

Wasn`t sure about Streetbeats at first, but, with yours and the other ones i`ve seen on here , they`re growing on me  :)

Top Work !

Looks cool :daumenhoch:  A pink stem would look pretty cool on there - it would match the seat clamp and break up the black bars, black stem and frame combo.

Del's decals look great :daumenhoch:

WOW im stunned by the kind words thats been said about this bike :shocked:

Rollin, Thankyou mate

Oldtired, i was thinking Black chain really?? as for botm im honoured just for someone to like my hard work really :)

Ozone, i watched about 4 pink headset come and go for cash i couldnt afford so maybe a painted pink stem is a good idea ;) also cheers for the good feedback dude :daumenhoch:

Dave, your daughter has great taste in colour schemes ;D (unless she is too young to choose then you have great taste)

The story behind my chioce in colours will be revieled when iv fitted the final few bits. Oh and swapped the calipers round as iv been informed they are front to back :-\ ::)

Ok been through a couple of little additions to the bike, i gave up on looking for a black chain and bought a pink one just for now so its ready for MK.
Also added the bar decals and swapped the cable guides top to bottom so the cable runs downwards now.




Just needs 1 litttle decal from Del and cables cut/crimped. :daumenhoch:

Look forward to meeting a few more faces at the show ;)
