New build up FAT CITY YO EDDY...

[ededwards]

It's already been said but is worth repeating - that is very sweet!

Some people really have taste - a great and unusual colour choice for the frame and forks that works perfectly with the purple and I'm sure looks even better 'live'.

Does anyone remember REFRESHERS(TREBOR I THINK?)?

I sort of remembered a chewy little b~~**+d toffee, or candy bar whatever ya wanna call it, called a REFRESHER! Thought id try & reproduce an 80's toffee bar into a piece of bicycle art!!1 :shock: Sort of pastelly soft hues of 80's early 90's...Bet Paul Sadof thought i was nuts when it came to me chosing a colour scheme for the repaired YO
Hey people thanks in tons for your nice comments..

Top notch ride mate. It looks then mutts nuts I think because it has been done very simply - always like a smooth unadultered hardtail. I did hanker after a 'Yo Eddy' in my youthful years but Uni put pay to the funds needed to aquire one - settled on my DB Axis instead!

Keep it simple!

Careful Joe... the purple looks good, but too much and it could end up looking like this:
