Hello!

First, my name is Egzon, 17 years old and from The Netherlands! Since i was young i always loved to work on bike's (Painting and pimping them just to have the coolest bike on school :lol: ) And i still love to work on them (have now 5 bikes in the garden hehe :lol: ). On Tuesday i bought myself a Felt Taxi bike for just €100,- with some little work on it. But i wil fix it! :) Now picturetime!

On my way to home;

- Babyblue frame color
- Other handlebar
- Brown (brooks) seat and brown grips
- And some other little stuff

Hope u like it so far :wink:

Greets!
 
That's gotta be my favorite Felt just based on the theme, sounds like your plans will be pretty sweet too though !!!
 
Kick!

Yo Vlammende, that was a very good bargon,only 100 Chocolate-coins for this bike. You scored yourself the nicest modell of all the Felt bikes.
Down below 2 links to a nice solution for the shifter (on a Felt). Like to see some more pics. :mrgreen:
