Re: Update time

Ok this is taking forever. This is my first true retro build (in my opinion), do they usually take 10 months?

mines taken nearly that long. reckon i may be finished before summer kicks in though! nice build btw

Cheers guys! I'll post when my decal guy is done and I apply them.

I was looking for some p2's for a while but I like the marzocchi's now.

Nice going, ace colour looking good with the silver.

Love the cranks too, what are they? They look stylish and light too with the scooped out arms.

Enjoy!!

Thanks bud. The cranks are Kooka and the rings are Real. A bit new for the look I'm going for I'll probably take them off. I just can't make up my mind.

Hey Doc, the build is on hold in storage as I'm currently living in a different province for a while. Here is where it's at. Still looking for some proper p2's. Cheers.

Do you have more info on the DIY bike stand?
Looks really nice also.

Final pics on the bike?

Sadly I cam to the realization that the bike is way too big for me and I have way too much money into it to sell so it's on my wall slowly losing parts to other builds. That's ok, this is my kind of wall art.
