I'm in the early stages of putting a Fiola replica together as I don't have a yellow build yet. If anyone has scans from magazines etc can you please post them. I realise these guys were changing their parts every other week so there isn't a specific one that I'm after. eg Tuf Neck or Pro Neck, GT bars but what size as he wasn't/isn't a big guy.
Oh yeah, and if you have a frame and fork you'd like to part with then that's two of the parts I still need...

James, Jazzchimp on RadBMX built this replica a while back. One of the best I've seen. It's in the GT section of their museum.

Thanks Glenn. Think I might be going for more like that one rather than with the Profiles on it. But who knows, every build starts off as a budget build and I've already blown that idea with the third part I bought.

I agree, I like the black mags better. Very cool bike.
What was the third part James?
I hope to start putting my replica build together early next year. No one has done this one yet.

Framestanders courtesy of OS BOB-O. There's so many variations of his bikes with black, yellow and blue tuffs. Have a set of black ones I could use but leaning towards doing the version with the yellow ones. Would love to do the version with graphites but I did say budget build.

Thanks. Didn't realise there were that many variations in a small amount of time. I can almost build anything as long at it is a GT frame/forks/bars/seatpost and tuffs and call it an Eddie replica.

Those first two pics rock. I wanted to do my Fiola tribute like that 1st pic but got frustrated looking for chrome forks & bars and white front brakes and white seat. So this as far as that idea got.

So then I also had that 2nd pic for another Fiola yellow bike reference so I went that route instead. I think it turned out ok.
this is how it sits now.

Nice to see that replica with the correct race forks. Most advertisements will have him sitting on a bike with the original forks. Here's one I built(not replica just yellow)...

Good Luck with your project. Chris

That looks great TRIBUTE. I swear Eddies yellow GT mst have made such a influnce. I can think of him riding a bunch of bikes that nobody or not many people have done replicas of.
1. the chrome one with 1 3/8 rims
2. the day glo pink with black forks and bars, in GT-TV
3. the one with the wheel covers
4. the ALL white one
5. and for sure the chrome one with black tuffs w/ white bars from the infamous mountain dew commercial.
who can forget any of those.
