pimp my bike ride

https://www.pinterest.com/jamieheth39/pimp-my-mountain-bike-custom/hi

just sharing my current ride which i pimped up
(not a specialized) just my own version
original chrome 7005 aluminum frame(make unknown mid 90's) wit steal rigid forks
i wanted to bring back the old hardtail 1990's type mountain bike back wit my own twist, a chunky frame and mid range urban slick tyres and shiny stand out bling but done well not chavy
i stripped down bike so only original frame and forks are still used,i built the wheels wit blue anodized hubs
added carbon seat and lightweight aluminum stem
aluminum and anodized handlebar,headset,break levers,bar ends,
new shimano shifters and gears
added v brakes wit blue blocks
an old crank from a dumped bike
funky blue pedals
26 x 1.95 slick urban road tyres
anything that came anodized i would put on bike
anodized blue back lights,frog light on front

please find video and more pictures on
instergram @ pimpmybikeride
pinterest @ jeh39
as i did this bike on a budget,i will be upgrading rear cassette to silver wit silver chain and shimano deore shifters, rear derailleur and new shiny crank when i got more cash,so it will look even more epic
this bike is a real head turner and i get many compliments from people when out riding it...

Why have you stuck Specialized stickers all over it?
MTB - '05 Scott Yecora
BMX - '04 Haro Nyquist R24 (don't judge me)

More epic than what???
Not sure why it has FSR stickers when you are trying to recreate the 90s hard tail look .....????
(And the word 'with' has an 'h' on the end.)
And it all promised so so much”

You have put FSR stickers on the bike. FSR is Specialized's rear suspension system.

errr, yeah, I think you are better off trying to pass it off as a future shock rear full sus bike than you are a sweet ride
Sorry, very rude of me but couldn't resist :oops:
You like it so it doesn't matter what everyone else thinks
If not then Cody's replacement has arrived!

Well, as long as you are happy with it, then great! It seems like you have gone to a lot of effort to rebuild this, so that's good.
Get that monstrosity out of here and inflict it up the lycra guys.
F-cough !!!!!! We dont want it

It's a mountain bike with semi-slick tyres. I have two mountain bikes, one for off road and one for road. Does an off road 4x4 Landrover sease to be an off road vehicle if it has road tyres??
Anyway, I think he's done a good job of pimping up his "mountain bike".
