TYPHOON REMIXED

[ricksterr1221]

Steve, IF It was mine, Id keep it the way it is right there it looks SWEET!

 

[Multipass]

My thoughts?

I'd go with black rims, black stem, black bars. One piece cranks and sprocket in, you guessed it, black!

Finished off with a black w/white lettering headbadge.

Those are my thoughts

-Mp


Oh, and a black headset, seat clamp and bottom bracket. Can't forget about those.

you simply must leave the rims white! keep the one piece...
find a black stem...

 

[Rat Rod]

Yeah...I'm sold on the white rims...that and the pinstriped tires are making me happy.

I got these wheels from the Hoochy Koochy man. :wink:

Black stem is a must...going by the LBS this weekend. I also have a new black headset to try out too.

 

[october]

i'm going to have to get some of those tires now :|

maybe put them on the rollfast build off bike...


steve, it looks great! sometimes less is more...

oct.

 

[karfer67]

this is an excellent example of how good a simple bike can look just by picking the right color parts and keeping it clean and simple.

 

[Hooch]

I'm planning to have a buddy of mine stripe it up and also get Murray to whip up a cool seat for it.

then send me the brooks right? lol

 

[Easy Skywalker]

Can't wait to see more!

 

[october]

did those bars come like that?
or did you paint them?

 

[Rat Rod]

did those bars come like that?
or did you paint them?

They came like that....cost $12 at the LBS.

 

[Rat Rod]

Threw on the new black BMX head set this evening.

 

[october]

nice....

black cranks?

 

[Rat Rod]

nice....

black cranks?

Yeah....I'm thinking that would be a good combo....also a black seat clamp and maybe paint the front and rear hubs black.

 

[Hooch]

i see your gonna put a pixie wheel on the back to compete with my continental lol

 

[Rat Rod]

Ha Ha....ummm, no. :wink:

I figured out what was going on with the rear wheel...a bearing was missing. :shock:

Planning to run the rear wheel by my LBS tomorrow and let them play with it. They charge $18 to clean and repack a rear hub.

I also need to pick up a bike box. :roll:

 

[Rat Rod]

Here are a few pics in the daylight. Went by my LBS today and they rebuilt my rear hub while I waited for $18. This also gave me time to find some Redline pedals and a Redline seat clamp. :lol:

I think I will install an all black BB and maybe a black chain ring next. Should also look pretty sweet with some black and white pinstriping.

 

[Hooch]

man that looks great!
it makes me wonder if black strut bars on the fork wouldnt be cool too!

 

[Markm]

cool!!

 

[Rat Rod]

Hmmm yeah...black truss rods.

Now where do I get a set of those?
