That Master is sick! Nice work (although I like to see bikes with chains).
I can honestly say I'm not feeling the GT, though. Maybe it's the padset and yellow seat/grips/lever covers. Yeah, I think its mostly those. Drop those and put on some black or blue tires and I'd probably be in love...but that's just my two cents.
What size are those Aerospeeds?

I didnt have aerospeeds or beartraps as a kid, didn't even have 3 pc cranks, couldn't afford them just had a takagi 1 pc and shimano sx pedals. Had a tuf neck and kuwahara bars not vectors but the mx1000's are from bitd. I think the aerospeeds are 175's. thanks for your comments guys

I've always wondered what a set of aerospeeds would look like on a vintage Master - now I know, AWESOME! Thanks for sharing with us.

axel, i can say i kind of dig the gt. i think he should lose the pads maybe for yellow.i also think the white tires should be swapped out.
i would try a few differant ways..
my 2 cents..
looks great

Very nice bikes! I especially like the Master, but would build it up as it was BITD. Kinda strange to me seeing Aeros on there, but if that's what you like on it that's cool as they are definitely sweet.

Superb bikes for sure.. I can't help but be a little more partial to the GT though

Looking at the pics again, maybe I'd like the GT better if it was just photographed in front of something that wasn't all white, like that garage door - for more better contrast.
About the mags on the Master...are they different color hubs? The one on the front looks gold and the rear silver; is that one of those rare silver-hubbed graphites?
Now here's the other question I've got to ask: I realize that across the pond you blokes tend to swap your brakes opposite of us, but why on one bike but not the other?

the hubs are different colours, the front tuff is graphite and the rear isnt & the reason for swapping cables was the green cables were too short for the uk way as they came off a trickstar I bought from the usa
Jay this is the final setup for the master, but the GT I'm only just geting started, just swapped gold mx's for blue and blue seat etc
