K4R1 Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 So after 5 years of not riding a bike let alone trials a random pub chat brought about the idea of a pub crawl on bikes... problem being i had sold my bike years ago and completely give up riding in favour of nights out and women... So to stick to what i knew best i went out and purchased this leeson dc51c only problem being i detest green .. id rather it have been pink !!! So after having a ball on the pub crawl/ride i decided id try and ride a bit more often so set about making the bike look a bit better so this is how it stands now .... cant decide if im going for white with black forks or a full stealth look ... ??? and no my riding is no where near to what it used to be to say the least but looking forward to having the odd mess about when time permits thanks for watching ....

AOK Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 i detest green .. id rather it have been pink !!! definitely go for the pink mate. Actually, pink might be a bit girly.. go for 'fuchsia' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K4R1 Posted September 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 haha i wasnt brave enough for the 'fuchsia' not really a look id go for lol ... still rather that than green but ive settled on white and im gunna try and get the graphics done by a local sign shop ... hopefully get it done this week if the weather sorts its act out ...

Skoze Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) I had it too, couldn't get to grips with it at all as a proper trials bike, too short even for me with 26"s(as it's meant to have) and i love my bikes to be silly short. Was great when i ran it with 24s as a brakeless hack for a little while when i was in the process of selling it for my old 609 though; Think i've got a few pictures of it when it was all sorted as a 26" too, somewhere.

K4R1 Posted April 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) BLACK BETTY ... Bit of an update .. Decided against the white and went for the matt black stealth look .. Seat and grips to finish (any recommendations ?!?) .. Just a rear brake for now till i get used to it then i'l have a try @ brakeless Edited April 1, 2011 by K4R1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Needs to be rolling back on 26"s again really, but it's great to see it's still getting a bit of love Oh, and it's D15C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaybs41282 Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 A pub crawl on bikes sounds amazing! Is it just as it sounds? Drink, trials, drink, trials drink, trials drink, trials, floor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K4R1 Posted April 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 A pub crawl on bikes sounds amazing! Is it just as it sounds? Drink, trials, drink, trials drink, trials drink, trials, floor! haha that exactly .. although its hard work keeping up with a bunch of XC and DH bikes .. But you soon have the advantage with a spot of showboating on the pub bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
