[Closed] MY NEW BUILD

Wot is it?

A bike

Don't need a coat today, I'll just go

A MTB, The frames marin striped and resprayed.

inspirational build! - you couldnt even clean it?

Tracknicko

Thats paint effect

nice shop bike

goog

What dose that mean?

you've painted a bike so it looks dirty?

it means ..... you'd go to the shops to buy sweets and leave it outside without worrying about it

Yes do u like it?, no its just sprayed black, pics taken after a blast around Gisburn.

goog

Wrong, i would not leave this out side any shop, just cos it hasn't got any fancy graphics all over it dosen't mean its cheap, everything on the bike apart from the frame was expensive

**facepalm**

I like it, would have gone for blue collars on the grips, and rekon some kind of graphics do finish a bike off, I didnt like mine bare after a powdercoating..

tinsy

I am going to put some graphics on, i am in the middle of designing some, think white graphic will finish it off nicly

Looks very Brand-X
(pronounced Bland-X if you're in the far-east )
🙂

The bike look fine but the concrete needs sweeping, come on sort yourself out

HTTP404

See wot you mean, it dose a bit, I think its looks are deceiving, its a fab bike to ride,

scottlacey

lol

What's that blue thing behind the concrete blocks? Rubbish? 😐

poppa

A blue rat

whats a dose ?

Visually, this is not exciting. As ever, that isn't [i]really[/i] the important thing. 🙂

Are you the Squiff that lived with tall Paul up by hunters bar?

tron

No am not, I live near Skipton

Nice build, looks like its meant for business, nice 1.

forgotmename

Cheers, indeed it is built for business and it does a very good job of it too

Did Henry Ford think up the paint scheme?

goog

whats a dose ?

what's an apostrophe?

5/10 - clearly some nice bits but looses mahooosif points for no decal, tyre+logo alignment, cop-out colour choice, old tyres.
Welldone on removing all traces of it being a Marin, I would have said it was an older Speccy Rockhopper.

therealhoops

decals are being designed

New tyres r in the post

don't do tyre+logo alignment, i have a life

cop-out colour choice, I like black and when the decals r on it will look different again

A life that needs the approval of STW?

Welcome to that club!

rocketdog

so true 🙂

?

It is very celery.

It looks better in the flesh than the pictures suggest, plus its surprisingly light, certainly seemed that way last night when i was hanging on his coat-tails around Gisburn 🙄

Nice - graphics and logos are so last year, keep it black !

Built my singlespeed up from a frame that cost me £75 off fleebay - 23lbs of cheap and cheerful off-road fun. Accelarates like Road-Runner and climbs like a Billy Goat on speed!
