    Bloody hell mate, they're like high beams on a car!

    Looks perfect for proper night riding in areas with no street lamps though.

    Damn I'm using the Serfas Thunderbolts and they seem to be fine but nowhere near as bright as those. They are a lot more sleek though imho

    I added some colour to my Carbon Gt today... Irish hubs
    I got my first flat tyre, so it gave me a reason to add some tyre liners and spray the hubs...

    All in all it cost me €5 for the spray which gives me new hubs....

    I added tyre liners too...

    Drying over the heater in between coats

    Tyre liner edges cut so there is no sharp edges

    I used paper and old bearings to block any gaps...

    Preparation for spraying the hub IMG_3831.jpg





    I used Rust oleum peel coat spray paint in green, you can apply this for up to 4 months and then peel it off and reapply a different colour, I got this idea from Evolve's latest customisation video on youtube... IMG_3833.jpg

    That looks awesome mate. Mat Glow Ball is a fan of the green on his board, he might get some inspiration from that

    Been bored waiting for the crazy weather here in NY to cooperate. Put these grip tape ideas together in the meanwhile. Might as well do something with my board. Can't decide which one to go with. I'll probably get both printed up but i'm leaning towards black & white. Thoughts?

    I know the color wont reproduce well, which is why I went neons.

    Would love to see a GT with AT wheels customized to use one of these decks Shop
    It would probably ride terrible but man would it still be awesome.

    Just painted my hubs and FL3D bumpers in Orangutan orange. Balanced the wheels too - what a difference it's made to wheel wobble/vibration!

    Same as Skedaddle above mate. Just a can of 'Rust-Oleum' plastic paint and a bit of patience :)

    Got these the other day. As expected the color didn't come out great. I thing i'm gonna put the B/W one on once the stock deck gets torn up.

    I've just sanded the original drawing and have slightly stained the deck. Quite happy with the result:
