  • Yay, bmxed is back!!

  • wait, is that actually not your bike zzB0N0Rzz? Who's is it?

    i'm quite pissed off you know, who knew i had to start trademarking my look wtf.

  • those look like lock up contact points...

    im willing to giv'em benefit of the Doubt

    I'm not...that fuck awful paint finish is montana wall/graf paint all day long...anybody thats ever refinished anything thats actually glossy for longer than a week coulld tell you that...horrible/soft/reactsbadlywitheverything/chipseasily/onlyeversatin/fail.

  • Excuse the crap photo - Spotted this one at church last Sunday, I was in a bit of a hurry and had no time to investigate...
    I'm a fan of biddy-beaters, you sometimes see ones that started out as custom classic lightweights & aged with their owners, not sure whether this is one - the paintjob looks rather flashy - I'll take a better look next time I see it...

  • From it's last run yesterday.

  • Nice, more pics!

  • Eh? So that wasn't one of the 2 frames you wrecked?

  • Ok, just took some more phone pics indoors.
    When I get home this afternoon I'll take some proper ones on a decent camera before taking the bike apart for good.

  • ^ So that's the Russell that got hit by a car..?
    What's the damage? - looks like it's rideable

  • Dude i think you dropped your cap. ;-)

  • Nah it's fucked you can see that clearly.

    I'll give you a fiver and big mac for it.

  • Me like, very minimal. The saddle is stripped yes?

    It's really not ridable, most of the damage is to the stays and if you look carefully you can see the duct tape on them, it's really hard for me to describe what's wrong but I'll get pics tonight.

    Dude i think you dropped your cap. ;-)

    I slipped over in my cleats and just left everything on the floor while taking the pic.

    Nah it's fucked you can see that clearly.

    I'll give you a fiver and big mac for it.

    Make that a 16 piece bargain bucket from KFC and you've got a deal!

    Me like, very minimal. The saddle is stripped yes?

    Thanks, yup the saddle is a stripped Selle San marco Kuota, it is what's being used on the seta, just put it on here because I couldn't be bothered using the brooks.

  • My seatstays are more fucked than that on the bike i ride everyday

  • You haven't seen these stays, when I pedal the BB sways a good inch on every stroke.

  • Yup, I can hold the top tube and push the BB back and forth with my fingers.

  • Bah I'm keeping my bigmac

  • not sure where to put this, but felt the need to post it

  • As the sun has his hat on.....

  • Love it, id actually buy that off you

  • Thanks man, really appreciate it! :)

    It's taken aaaages to get it where it is. When I bought it, it was a mess, had some horrible and wonky chrome for forks, buckled wheels and what looked like a bunch of mountain bike parts!? The only thing that remains of the original purchase now is the frame, It's still a total mish-mash of used parts but It's pretty bombproof! Still think it could do with a more vintage looking rear wheel to complete the look but all in due time :)

  • Yeah a low profile rear rim would complete it.

    love the sort of bike you can just chuck at a bike rack and lock up with a mini evo without a worry
