QUICK UPADATE: The SBC bars and seat post were just not the right shade of gold, so the build has taken a little detour. Bars will be gold VDC cruiser bars with a gold WIN stem. Seat post will be a gold 13/16 fluted seat post with tapered end (Schwinn style). I'm going to use a NOS Mesinger saddle vs a Brooks. Pedals will be 9/16 block vs MCS gold BMX. The overall vibe will be more cruiser than racer.

More pics to come.

So many of my favorite things going into this build! I really like the gold on yellow. You see blue on blue and red on red, but not very often you see gold on gold. Dig it.

Thanks Dizzle!
