Title: PK Ripper - Finished
Post by: torkertony on August 27, 2009, 02:33 PM

Ok - a few weeks ago I posted a thread saying my chrome TA (see link) was to be my last build.... 

http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=92573.0

Well, less than 4 weeks later and I've just completed a Looptail Ripper.  Last build my arse, it's addictive this hobby and my addictive personality matches it a treat!!!  :LolLolLolLol:

Here you go, hope you like...

PK Ripper Looptail Frame
Unstamped Landing Gear Forks
Genuine NOS Padset (not repro)
UKAI Rims with Shimano DX Hubs NOS
CW Bars
WIN Stem NOS
Ame's NOS
Takagi Crank Set NOS
Dominator Seat NOS
MKS Footjaw Pedals NOS
MX 901's NOS

Thanks as always to Sam (meticus) for frame and powder coating and Del for the decals.

Cheers for the kind words JT.  It was kinda done on a budget (if there is such a thing) so a Kashi will be on the cards at some stage.  Gutted because I sold a NOS Blue Aero Kashi on here a few months ago as I thought I wouldnt need it!  :tickedoff:
