My new bike
« on: September 11, 2005, 06:41:34 am »
Hey, as my dad has sold my frame on ebay recently to jeffhop so he's had to build up his old bike with the gold swinging arm for me, but as the gold wouldn't suit my bike he re-painted it in white (my idea) :P and I must say it looks rather amazing ;D

Congrats Sam!!!!

I always wondered how your old man's bike would look if the rear was white - just like you did. It looks GREAT!!!!! Matching and contrasting all at the same time - gotta love it! My new fave carbon, for sure.

Now, go throw a leg over it and show your Dad how it's done! [smiley=laughing.gif] [smiley=nod.gif]

(oohhhhh, I bet i'm gonna get it for that one! :P )

Ha Ha Ha I'll remember that  :P
though he still can't beat me yet  [smiley=laughing.gif]
yes it does look good,I wanted to put on a subtle decal on the s/arm but he wouldn't have it,
though as I did ALL the work (typical) I should of just done it  ;)
He's got a new girlfriend and this project appears to be taking up a lot of his time  :-[

I'm a married medical student with 3 kids in preschool or younger. I've got LOADS of spare time...

;)

At least when you've got a girlfriend, you can take time off if you really need to. Try getting out of diaper duty at 3:00 a.m.!

And Sam, at your age, you shouldn't have a girlfriend. You should have a harem of them! That actually makes it a lot easier to sneak in a ride now and then...

Super NICE!



I like all the red bits. Offsets the white nicely. All set on a background of black.



Wait! A pattern is surfacing. Black cape, white fangs, and the red of blood. You have a real racing VAMPIRE there. Be afraid, very afraid.



Hot Dog, it sure is nice.
