This thread was up here, but I think it was lost in the crash a few years ago.
Anyway Riley's Apollo got a upgrade last week & he took it down the track last night, he was chuffed. His mates thought the orange powdercoat was sick lol. The frame & bars Powdercoat & blast was 40 bucks (what a bargin).
Here's what it looked like nearly 3 years ago
And now

Looks like the powder turned those TX500s into TRXs
As rl osborne would say It Looks Factory!
IMO Only Redlines look great in white.

Yes it also turned the Bars into Alloy ones, Kashimax set into a plastic no name, old school stem into a lighter mid school stem & to top it off the 7c rear / 7b front rims turned into alex(made for apollo) rims lol.
Its near 1kg lighter then the 1st time around. Just as light as a Redline Expert XL, they are 9.16KG
