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...

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. -

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

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

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.

Love it, id actually buy that off you
-
• #5799
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
Yay, bmxed is back!!
