Hey, well done.
My only comment would be that the angle of the seat is too nose down.

Very nice

dannywhiteley · « **Reply #4 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:35 PM »

Lovely that, I do love a nice Cali. Proper 80's...

My only comment would be to strip the red anno off the seat post, or swap it for a chrome one to match the bars.

CORRECT, Got down to the skate park this morning, realised i hadnt adjusted the seat after changing it so the bairn could have a shot in the garage.

sweet lookin bike - great place to take pictures as well.

I'm doing my Torker on a shoestring budget - it must cost loads to use all NOS gear. Still it looks worth it.

Really really nice, but if you strip the anno off the seat post I absolutely guarantee it'll look 100% sorted. Just a smidge too much red IMHO
