Some parts but more since picture and some in post atm

Here is how it stands atm

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.

Any feed back welcome. Cheers Deano

Chainring and spider will make it complete. As soon as i can get the darn cups in

Deano · « **Reply #4 on:** May 13, 2009, 11:20 PM »

LOL @Bru

It has a personal meaning behind the colour scheme dude. For the record Fruits doesnt apply

Tarrr very much though i like bright

pickle · « **Reply #5 on:** May 14, 2009, 08:32 AM »

it's diferent that's for sure

would like to see it with the Z mags as well though.....nice and black

Deano · « **Reply #6 on:** May 14, 2009, 02:32 PM »

Pickle, i cant see that happening dude. The ACS zmags will no doubt be going on my DP or GT.

Different is good in my eyes, im not a stock kind of guy im a custom dude

(mostly)

tarr very much

Looks great, but just one comment .. you dont usually fit wheel nuts along with the pegs !

Deano · « **Reply #8 on:** May 14, 2009, 11:10 PM »

^^Really

i did wonder.

This is only a mok-up and they are only slightly on

Seriously strugglin to get the BB cups in though. Iv taken most of the paint off inside the BB.

thebigdog · « **Reply #9 on:** May 14, 2009, 11:24 PM »

i like the black and pink combo

always remeber a black and pink pk ripper on ebay years ago,could have had the whole bike for £300

nice scheme

Deano · « **Reply #10 on:** May 14, 2009, 11:41 PM »

Thanks Thebigdog, i have a Tioga pink cd chainring and black Tioga spider. And pink Tioga kkt plastic pedals.

So should look good when i get over this small annoying hurdle

Deano · « **Reply #11 on:** May 17, 2009, 08:31 PM »

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

Everybody loves a bit ov pink

Deano · « **Reply #12 on:** May 24, 2009, 04:43 PM »

Thanks to Del for being the great custom decal maker and perfect guy to deal with. I will be finishing this today, this is a snippet of what iv done so far.

Started off small and now just the 2 big ones to do now $:-\$

CD17 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 24, 2009, 09:33 PM »

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

Deano · « **Reply #14 on:** May 25, 2009, 01:35 AM »

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

love them!!!!

suts89 · « **Reply #17 on:** May 25, 2009, 07:55 AM »

Thanks Oberonspacefruit and Elliot (Ron Burgundy)

It was my firsy :daumenhocht ever attempt at doing decals and i done them dry

not easy but im sure ill get used to it.

Suts, Thanks for the picture of some other black 1's. That link has some fancy Streetbeat for sure.

HARODAVE · « **Reply #19 on:** May 25, 2009, 12:23 PM »

Good thread and Great Job on the Streebeat ..

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 !
Dave

top job mate

oldtired · « **Reply #21 on:** May 25, 2009, 12:31 PM »

nice

great thread , nice colour , del done a great job again, june botm entry i think,chrome chain?

ozone · « **Reply #22 on:** May 25, 2009, 12:40 PM »

Looks cool

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

Deano · « **Reply #23 on:** May 25, 2009, 03:21 PM »

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

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

Dave, your daughter has great taste in colour schemes

(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 $:-\$

Deano · « **Reply #24 on:** July 02, 2009, 12:55 AM »

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.

Look forward to meeting a few more faces at the show
