I just think that is a really cool idea. Nice, very nice, work.

Dingo your right .. You know there is hundreds of the quads running around nothing against you
quad guys there is only one of these..... I may just have to stamp inside of the rear drop # 001 or lieave it like the originals with no stamping ??

I dig it!!! The Bullseye cranks and red chainring really standout. Very nice ride.

Looks like a former MCS Speed Freak to me.

Came out super sharp. Great looking bike.

Right O kevin O 02 speed freak pro donor.. I changed it up a bit and the cranks are now chrome profile cranks, gold chain black gear and possibly a set of ted on the way.. SR

Not pickin' on your bike (I think it looks great- very cool ride) , but to do a Profile retro/tribute, why not start with a Profile frame? They still sell very cool frames.
standardracer
Geez I knew someone was gonna hit me up with that.. FIrst Profile doesnt make a race frame anymore. Secondly have you seen how big the tubes were on the last made profile frame?? I know friggin huge.. Looks real funny with a small down tube brace in it .. And thirdly I personally and just me personally think the geometry and handling kinda sucked on the large tubed profile frame... Now not dissin profile because they make some killer shizzz... But this one is very much close to the geo of the current standard 125r frame that I ride and I can take this one to the track and it doesnt feel much different.. Kinda like Kappa making retros ya know they dont start with a certain companies frame ... Now if Profile made a smaller tube frame such as the one pictured I would hook it up in a heart beat.. As most of ya know I am a profile freak... Oh and thanks for checkin it out glad you could enjoy.. Peace bro, SR

Cool, well explained! Again, not picking on the bike, just curious. Nice ride!

standardracer
