Long Wheel Base Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Colour and decals done will add the other bits as i get them.That is awesome. Good Job. Did you go as far as getting that fancy Olympic Spez paint that changed colour as it got hotter? Barry 1
Barry Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 That is awesome. Good Job. Did you go as far as getting that fancy Olympic Spez paint that changed colour as it got hotter?Had a look at the Spaz paint but expensive and complicated for me and my non existent spray painting skills. i went with the Focus ST yellow and orange with flake and pearl. Tried to get the Tarmac look left the black pin stripe off as it just looks odd Long Wheel Base 1
The Ouzo Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Colour and decals done will add the other bits as i get them.that is such a cool idea. I might even steal it. Barry 1
Zaskar Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Looking for a XL or L 26' Mtb frame. Willing to pay up to R1k for the frame.Building a bike for someone whose bike got stolen. Was used for commuting. Got all the other parts, only need a frame with QR rear asseblief?Ive got an old alu GT Zaskar Team frame hanging in my garage. A few years back I stripped the clearcoat and started polishing the frame, but never got around to finishing it so it is currently just has a bare brushed alu finish. The frame is XL, takes 26"wheels and has QR dropouts and disc mounts. If you are still looking let me know. A donation to an animal charity is all I would really want for it, and we would just have to arrange shipping as i'm in JHB. JohanDiv 1
