My 1st Build Thread - all carbon original B2
I decided to do a all-original, all-carbon B2 as my first build thread on here. Only have one more carbon part to pick up, and a couple other misc parts, and I'm golden - I don't like to start a project until I have all the pieces I need. So, just a teaser for now...

Nice! I started out restoring my B2 and then it morphed in to an all carbon build too! Looking forward to more updates.

Re: 1st Build Thread
The couple of "other misc. parts" is the one that usually takes time 
Keep us posted with more pics!

Cool, just the top plate. That is going to be a nightmare to find though! Good luck!R Cane wrote:I decided to do a all-original, all-carbon B2 as my first build thread on here.

cool ! I'll be following that for sure.
NB. I've never seen a build thread of a "OIN" type b2/3 (apart from the grafite shapeway's version of course...), or am I missing something?
Am I the only one using hex up front, b4.2 hubs rear etc?

Re: 1st Build Thread
Ouch.... that was the hardest part for me to find as well... I lucked out and had the only bid on one about 2 weeks ago on eBay... ended up being $13 total with shipping. I feel like I stole it!R Cane wrote:There's one on FeeBay now, but I don't want to spend $45...

Post up a wanted ad in the BST and you might be surprised at how quickly you can find this stuff. 
(That's how I found mine)

Re: 1st Build Thread
Sorry but that one has the holes for the sway bar. It is for a B3.R Cane wrote:There's one on FeeBay now, but I don't want to spend $45...

Re: 1st Build Thread
This is also the wrong top plate. Original B2 must have no holes for a sway bar.
