Those bars would rock. At least they wont slip !

Also look into Crupi gear as well - they have a great colour range

(I had some of my parts powdered to match the anno)

Depending on your chosen colour scheme I have some custom decals left over as well

I reckon grab a set of new school 1/18 landing gear forks and powder them black with gold decals - these frames need some chunk in the trunk to set off the fat downtube!


(I went with S&M Gay Bars instead of the red ones - I thought they suited me better)

Thanks Ben ive been looking at landing gear forks , i think i ll grab myself a pair until i can get a pair of Bottema`s , ill check crupi out too.
My colour combo is gold and chrome
Xav i think i like those bars and there is another pair of inhumane ones that interest me ill pm you when im ready and decide which ones , ill flip a coin

Mate, Knight bikes does a Tuff neck style retro stem that would be perfect on your frame. I've just ordered the inverted model for my retro quadangle. $85 posted from colored tuffs, check it out.

[Steve88]

Hey pepe thanks heaps. I'm ordering one. Had a good look for em on the net thanks for the heads up.

[JMCGT]

go 175mm cranks.. and S&M xlt's are an awesome bar..about $89..

[JMCGT]

I trained on these last night.. love em..

[james]

how many of use have a Nomorea ? maybe we should start a list seems there might be a few here on OZ

I have a Black 20' serial # ABC20047

[JMCGT]

I had two,.. Then i found the real deal..

[james]

reckon i could build two retros for the cost of one OG

[ozbmx]

did you nomorea show up today? was sent eparcel at the start of the week.

[Steve88]

hey mate yes it did today , lightest thing ever . Im in need of a Seat Post and Clamp that will fit anyone have any ideas where i can go for it. I want a Chrome Post and Gold clamp , must be retro style .
Ive just laid some parts alongside each other

That picture makes me feel funny in the trouser region....

[Steve88]

I was thinking of Gold Brakes and Yellow Cable with Gold Lever. I`ve gotten around the thickness of the cable too
or Silver Brakes , clear cable , and silver levers




What do you think ? Steve

[Reeky]

/// still feelin' funny \\\\

[Reeky]

I'd go chrome calipers, but gold lever. Black grips and tyres. Gold chain ring and pedals, chrome cranks.

[Steve88]

ohh good option reeky

[Brisben]

Looking good mate

Maybe black brakes and lever for a bit more contrast - but that depends on the cranks I suppose - black Paul V brakes and lever would look hot - and it would stop if you were to ride it

I'll check the seatpost and clamp size for you tomorrow - along with the my decal stash - might have some other options

[Steve88]

Brisben , that sounds sweet mate , any help would be great . I was thinking of Redline cranks , the new style also come in black too. Ive also got Black Mx1000 with black levers , great option , ill have to dig them up tomorrow as ive also got black cables too
Thanks heaps great option
