    That long exposure stuff at night (especially in the city with water reflections) really works well hey. Nice photos mate.

    He actually took a fair few pics and then edited them into 1 to use lighting from several angles. Interesting to watch it being done. Pretty happy with the results

    Wow, neat technique. How do you get perspective right with different photos? Surely the angle would be different with other photos? Do you mean they were taken at the eact same spot on the tripod with and without the bike in shot?

    He sets the Camera up on the tripod and takes a photo with just the natural lighting for the background. then another pic with him walking with a light behind the bike to give the light from on top. Same with the bottom of the bike. Does this a couple of times to see which gives the best lighting, then he edits the pics together and uses the background from one, the lower half from another, etc..

    It takes him a while doing the editing... All the pics are taken in the exact same location

    They've gone on the back burner till the house reno is done.

    For the front wheel i just need to take approx 3mm off the spacer and the same off the outside of the axle as the original bearings were recessed where as these are not. For the rear a bit more complicated. I bought a disc which should fit on the new wheel (still need to test fit) and then make up a spacer and custom sprocket.

    Just need to find someone to make the parts for me after i take the measurements.
