€mainly only browse on here instead of talking but saw all the bike threads and thought id add mine. no chopping (sorta) or welding on this one like most of the others, only riding. only problem is i get hella bored quickly so it changes its colour alot. curently rocking the wood look but soon to go all white except for the grips. now rocking all white front wheel, forks, rear wheel., seat post, bars and jack daniels seat which looks real freash but my camera doesnt want to work. ill post a spec if any ones interested but i doubt it, haha. couple of pics of me riding it...

thanks for the replys. still find it strange finding bmxers into cars, dunno why though. frame wise its a mankind archangel. not sure if its a version 1 or 2, not overly fussed either cuz i think the only difference is weight an this thing weighs curse word all as it is. i barely grind and the chainstays are squaring off already! spec: mankind archangel frame and forks. bsd too loose bars. odi long neck grips. g-sport smalln hub (cant remember model) with profile flush crank bolts. looks alot smoother and savbe that all inportant weight, ha. odessy 8k rim on the front (think thats what its called) with a mid-weight on the rear laced to a profile rear hub with a 9 tooth driver, and rather worringly 2 prawls and springs missing but it still goes so meh. odesy wombolt cranks till last week when they snapped so I'm back on to my old bent profiles with a 28tooth superstar chainring. jim cilencski ali looseball pedals. redline pivotal seat and cut down post. these things are amazing considering what they are. plus its redline so gets all the little kids hateing. love it, haha. khe superdooper light folding rear tyre. ran this on the front for 6 months solid and got no punctures (their bassicly bald tyres out of the box). got it on the rear at the moment cuz i had to sell my rear tyre(it was brand spank and free to me but to skinny and i needed lunch) plus its evaned out the weight abit. only problem is the rear wheel was built with the help of jaegermeister so after a good few months of riding and the fashoinably skinny rear end the tyre rubs abit on the frame. with regards to the photos, captain wow's got it spot on, table into the take off and hop into a bank. kingston doesnt have much but we try and use it to its most. oh yeh, got a superstar stem, cracked fsa impact headset and mankind skinny seat clamp, bassicly looks like a zealbmx.com catalouge build apart from the wheels, haha.
any one else gonna post up pics of their rides/riding?
