  • bmw bike are really cool !

  • maybe a little OTT?

    So where exactly is 'the top' ...black?
    The beauty of bikes is that they can be customised exactly to your liking...your own personal preferance.
    That paint is pretty much just gunmetal grey most of the time...it's only in direct sunlight that you really notice the colours.
    It's also sprayed onto a 53lbs steel downhill bike with a twin chain setup and 9" of travel...3" tyres..etc...so i doubt if it's gonna be the paint that would get classed as over the top.

  • low pro + risers = oxymoron

    Fixed

  • there's no doubt that paint is crazy.....

  • This bike also has the exact same paint on it...as you can see...unless it's in direct sunlight it's pretty subtle.

  • What model is that ^- i want!

  • It's a 'Big Air'....full suss bmx....tis fun :)

  • bmw bike are really cool !

    what does bmw stand for?

    @ Scott - that thing looks mad, a real beast.

  • brooklyn mahcine works ich denke

    Oh I do like this - what are those tyres dmc ? - wheels like this is where I am going with the pinarello - natural sidewalls non aero anodized rims

  • Vitoria or veloflex I reckon.

  • double two straps would look nice

  • I finished my Harry Quinn today!

    So I went to take some nice pictures ;-)

  • Pretty.

  • Hey there, bike nearly built, just waiting on bars and bb. My first fixed after 5 years of ss (kona unit).

    Cheers,
    Bob.

    I like that, nice work!
    Do those stickers come off the rims easily? Hint Hint :)

  • @dmczone - that's very nicely done. Dave Russell was a very fine builder and sadly passed away recently.

  • @dmczone.
    Beautiful build - aside from the saddle, one of the best i've seen in a while!
    Can i be a total cunt-flap and ask what rim/tyre combo that is? Need a new wheel set and want yours :-/

  • hubs look like miche.

  • Thanks everyone, definately had fun building this DR and glad you like it.

    Vittoria Competition tubulars on Mavic GP4 rims laced to Miche hubs.

    Everything from eBay.

    Cheers, I'm really pleased with how it turned out, and it rides great.

    I know what you mean about the stickers. They are a bit garish. I was of half a mind to remove them myself. I think they might be covering some nasty unfinished join.

  • Don't worry about the join. It'll look so much nicer without the stickers!! (IMO of course)

  • This is the original state of the Sun bike i got -

    love the lugs

    now looking like this after about 70 quid spent

    limited knowledge about bikes tbh so working on it slowly and carefully as i understand more stuff (only recently found out what cotter-pinned crank are) and have spare cash. know it's not a patch on most bikes on here but you've got to start somewhere i guess...

  • The latest whip for daily use. Need to change pedals and polish seatpost.

    Bigot, you can't change the post just coz its Polish.
