DP GL Plus Firebird Freestyler
This is the Start of my DP GL Plus Firebird Freestyler build.
Just need a few bits to finish it.
This shows the Dual routing holes ant the rear of the GL Plus. Normally there is only the routing hole at the bottom
The DP is Laser Cut to Distinguish it as a GL Plus. DC 880 Caliper Fitted
DP Ladder Bars that are going to SBD to be made White and Pro Neck Stem with Potts Mod Front DC880 Fitted
Need to get the Cranks and Pedals from work Sugino CT's and Shimano DX Pedals. then the Izumi chain will be fitted
Hoping to be on this for the Blackpool roll around in May

The way my cable is routes is the Prototype models routing. Glyn Lewis got his foot caught in the cable doing a frame stand, before they were released so the production model only had the hole on the bottom. I have no idea why this frame has both of the holes at the back but the rear brake works much better routed this way. Ed. will only have the bottom hole in his GL Plus.

He doesn't need any of the holes as he hasn't routed his cable through the frame

WRONG numb nuts - fully routed THROUGHT THE LOWER HOLE with an inverted MX1000 on the rear and silver powerglides...
and its a LIMITED GL Plus... one of 500 ... read and weep
keep the green Brett... gonna look cloney with white bars... green seat post and green cranks would really set it apart... IN MY FOOKIN OPINON

i bet that cable routing was a joy to do........not
that looked like it could have been a nightmare of a job to do
cool idea though,and it looks clean!
