What do you think?

I may post my other rides soon? although this has taken nearly two years!!

Al, I'd rather Krooze than booze.

i think that is a huge pile of cool. looks awesome.

i had seen similar frames on ebay and considerd a cruiser build but they dont look that great as a frame only. built up it looks fantastic.

loving the bars and grips too. are the bars comfy?

Thanks

This is the second one i have built, my brother took a shine to the first one! And now rides it around bury. He uses something called 'gears'on it though!!

I got this one from e-bay 60 quid i think?

The bars are really comfy, i run a pair on the surly but upside down.

Al.

where about are those pics taken? Looks like North Wales.

I want one!

The pics are on Penzance prom' with Mounts bay and St Michael mount in the back ground. Oh! and the white wall on the first pic is the Jubilee pool britains oldest lido, i think?

I live a mile over the hill in the background of the third pic.


Al,

like this a lot! i've seen those frames on ebay but not been convinced... 99% there now though! now, when's that redundancy money coming in?
