Hey everyone I just finished my REBEL redo and wanted to show it off and get some feed back. Please give it to me straight and I can take it. I love this site because of the honesty and quality builds that members here have. I really like it and hope you all do to but if you dont tell me and why. Feed back is crucial for me to dial my rides and improve for the next one. Thanks Jonny Reb

I am aware that my disc is on backwards. I was having a dyslexic moment at the time of instal and have been meaning to change it but procrastination is always present!! haha

That looks awesome!
Very true to the vibe & colors of the brand.

That PPP stem is a real centerpiece on there too.

Thanks and I really appreciate that coming from you. I have admired your builds since the first time I saw the GJS.
In case anyone is confused or wondering all parts and the F/f are OG finish and decals. The way they should be in my opinion and thats why I come here

Thanks I really love my Rebels!! I only have 2 left out of the 5 I have had. I will be posting up the one 1 take my screen name from soon. I think this 1 is done and I can be satisfied with it though I have wanted to use some Hutch pedals on this. I would some more feed back so I can put this one to bed.

Thanks I am very proud to own this bike and gave up a very rare cw phaze 1 that was probably one of the first made and came from the OG designer's Son. This frame set is a bonafide race bike from back in the day and was owned and raced by an important Factory rider. I am very thankful o my friend who made this one happen as well as making the one of only a few complete pad sets known and other killer rebel stuff that I couldnt ever see selling. To that friend I want to say thanks bro and you are a real class act and full of knowledge!
