Jake. Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 The rear wheel looked like it had a funky spoke pattern for a second with the wheel on the car haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Looks awesome! What's the geometry and gear ratio on that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclip Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Look's sweet, not a fan of the saddle though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 The saddle suits the age of the bike I reckon. Street trials bikes don't 'need' a BMX saddle to be cool. If its black rims you're replacing those with I think you should resist grinding the braking surface to keep it all stealth. Over all, mostly because of the colour, it looks like what an Inspired Skye would have looked like 10 years ago.Oh and those pedals are not very pleasing on the eye. It's the only thing that ruins it...and the red hub :-P spray that shit black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah been looking for a railed saddle rather than a pivotal , just not found anything that costs under £100 yet :/ Will be running black Rhino lites with no grind , dont normally run one , but thought I would try it out as I was replacing these rims . Looking for a front red king hub to match . Yeah the pedals aren't pretty , but ive not found anything as grippy as of yet , might try the Shimano MX80 pedals . Thanks for the comment though Have fallen in love with this bike all over again . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
