DodgySam Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 suggest adding some kind of spikes to the ends of the footrests? if not spikes then something cos its looks random Rusty checker plate foot plates. That would look badass! Generally awesome tho! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goat Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Have got the brake going, its epically shit. I'm just hoping its because the rubber grabbers have minimal contact due to their previous wear pattern, They should bed in. They do work, just not very well. hah Thinkin bout road registering it, but would get pulled over ALL the time. The foot pegs don't look that out of place IRL so they stayin how they are. They now have end caps which make it look more finished. Hopefully get a chain today so will be maiden voyage tonight. Choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 suggest adding some kind of spikes to the ends of the footrests? if not spikes then something cos its looks random Bernadino plonk - use the plastic corks as bar ends.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do work, just not very well. hah Yes having worked as a bike mechanic for several years your choice of brakes is nothing short of terrifying, especially when combined with the handling I assume it has. Suggest noob riders wear lots of padding and avoid busy areas/streets in general Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goat Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 bringing to nats? Ofcourse, so everyone can see how haggard it is IRL Happy enough with the brakes. Can't have a villiers powered chopper without inherent danger.... Although, KK's pads seem lush. But the goal is to spend NO money. And so far i have done just that. Am only prepared to pay for chain and whitewalls. hah Has plastic caps in the end of the foot pegs and looks mek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Speed Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 26inch wheels? highly recommend hookworms as the tire... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goat Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 yea, 26's. They whitewall? Where does one get them from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Speed Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Bike (pedal type) shops have them, know theres a whitewall 20 inch, and I know plain black is available in 26 but would have to enquire about 26 inch whitewalls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goat Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 rad will enquire. Needs whitewalls something fierce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isnowi Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I think the whitewalls are 20" only, you an get 26" all whites though. Not very sticky IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goat Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 I have seen 26" whitewalls. So i know they exist. Its just whether or not i can get them in NZ without waiting 12876491 years for them to come from america Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 hook worms would be very fitting they come (or they did when i last brought some) all black too so you can attack with white paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
