[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

Umm I hate to question the best but I don't think pink is right for the look I'm aiming for

PINK

+1

 

[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

But Ill tell you what, if I can get enough members to agree and say that pink would make a big impression on the build. I'll do it.

 

[xHOBOPHOBIAx]

its not pink, its light red.

 

[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

Well I'll be on the look for a light red(pink) color....

pink will stick out. build the baddest rat ever then blast it pink lol sorry i will stop now this running joke is way too old

 

[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

Running joke :?: so the pink idea was just a joke....

 

[udallcustombikes]

Hey Karfer-
Where would one find the origins of said joke?

 

[Markm]

just about any past buildoff thread.. :mrgreen:

 

[karfer67]

this one sensor will have to dig for. it all started when this guy was giving me heck about how he thought the ratty truck i built for the 2007 build off was unrideable because of the clip on bars. his sig was a pic of his club's jacket that was a huge pink iron cross if i remember with the words dice kings. after posting pics of me riding it showing it was totally rideable he still gave me grief. i ended up saying something like "big words for someone rocking a jacket with pink saying dice kings." anyways the joke stuck that it had to be totally unrideable and pink........and now you know.....the rest of the story.

So maybe pink would give it a nice touch....or not I don't know I'm just going for the best way to stick out..also I'm talking about a more faded red...not like a hot pink
By the way the cycle truck was a master piece

Wasn't that the origin of "Mad Skillz" as well ?

Back to the subject at hand, I was looking for a hood ornament for my upcoming build and found this Lady today. Don't know where she came from, but for $3 she's it.

 

[Markm]

Nice!!!!!
