the gibble king likes green

[gibbleking]

i have finished (almost) building the san andreas when i came to the des that it lacked a theme ....so i replaced the mythos tyres for these....and swapped the coda crankset for the black ones off me spare bike.......waddya think of the green ....or is it a case of wahat have i done.....?ps the blue one is getting a brand new wheel this week and will be fitted with kona flatties and lock ongrips to finish her off...then shes up for sale...

Er, "theme", is that yellow, green or red :? , Sorry but i could'nt live with those tyres, i'd change those for black to fit in with the forks and cranks or maybe the red wall Panaracers to match the saddle and pedals, and stick red grips on to match , or maybe even a black saddle and grips to go for a black and silver look.

Sorry if this sounds harsh (not intended), just how i'd have the bike if it were mine

I do like green tyres as i have some on my voodoo ...dura ace mech on that i see :shock:

 

[gibbleking]

Can you get it to do the full range of gears with that dinky cage?

 

[gibbleking]

oh yes ....its perfecto baby..

The mech's interesting as I wanted to fit one to a build I'm doing too and 2 seperate people have said it won't work, one telling me that 8speed dura ace required sti levers and barcons wouldn't work either. If yours is okay though I'm keen to try it, what type of shifters are you using?
